Lovely place and excellent attention from the owners. I would absolutely recommend this place and my only suggestion would be to place clearer signs along the road leading up to the turn off road. We happen to come upon this B&B by chance but we were not disappointed. Clean and well kept place.Comfortable rooms, clean bedding and towels and the... more

We stayed at the cottage for a week and were amazed by the all mod cons,cleanliness and spectacular views. The owners were extremely friendly and accommodating giving advice on the best walks, free internet access, free transport to and from local restaurant and arrranging taxi services to the station. The place is set in the most serence location next to... more

Riversdale Cottage and adjacent B&B in Glendalough, Ireland is one of the best places I have ever stayed. It has all mod cons in an ideal setting in the valley right next to the river overlooking a beautiful part of Wicklow National Mountain Park. The owners are very welcoming and attend to your every need including providing free return transport... more

Our room was nice, clean, and a spacious. The major plus was the ability to use their laptop and printer which is in the living room. The view from every window in the house was nice since you would see the water and the trees. The pillows were a bit too flat for me, but overall I was happy with... more

Incredibly clean. The view from our room was out to the creek, with the Wicklow mountains in the distance. There is a walking trail adjacent to the house that brings you right to the ruins at Glendalough. The breakfast room was sunny, cozy, and had great views. The room was spacious. Free internet access. Our hosts were extremely friendly and... more

I found this B&B on the Wicklow Way website. it is spotlessly clean, couldn't be more comfortable and in the most amazing location - the views from the B&B itself are amazing and it's within a short walk of the Glendalough Visitors' Centre as well as the Wicklow Way--it could not be more convenient for either. Breakfasts are excellent and... more

We stayed only one night but wish we could have stayed longer. Our room was airy and comfortable with a spectacular view of the river and mountains. Breakfast was delicious and plentiful. And our early morning walk to the ruins across the river, accompanied by some ewes and their lambs, was lovely. We ate dinner at Lynham’s in Laragh, a... more

We stumbled into the Riversdale House when visiting Glendalough last month. Just followed the sign along the highway and ended up in a beautiful B&B in an incredible setting. Hordes of tourists invade Kevin's Kitchen, Kevin's Way and the gorgeous Glendalough in the Wicklow Mountains. Who would think it possible to find accomodations in the middle of the action, right... more

I was disappointed in my stay at Riversdale House. This was our last night before we headed back to the states and we had a bad nights sleep. I felt the bed was itchy, not sure if it was bed mites or something, so we wound up sleeping on-top of the bed cover. The hosts were very nice, however, one... more

This was our first B&B in Ireland, and we were very satisfied. We flew in to Dublin and headed straight down to Glendalough in County Wicklow. Which brings me to the first point - as someone else here mentioned, it's not in Bray. It's much closer to Glendalough, Laragh, and the southern end of the Wicklow Mountains national park. Use... more
