Nestled in the peaceful village of Rathdrum, County Wicklow, Jacobs Well is just a 15-minute drive from Wicklow Mountains National Park. Avondale House and Forest Park is located 1.5 km from the hotel, while Glendalough is 13.2 km away. Recently, it was highlighted in the Irish Times Weekend magazine as the top choice for Ireland’s Best ‘Foodie Pubs’ with Accommodation.

Every room at Jacobs Well Boutique Hotel features an en-suite bathroom equipped with a power shower, complimentary WiFi, and tea/coffee making facilities in the breakfast room. Guests can unwind in a private lounge that includes an open turf fire. Additionally, a public car park is available for guest use next to the hotel.

Next to the B&B, a celebrated gastro-pub serves a classic full Irish breakfast, porridge, fresh fruit, and cereals. Light lunch options include vegetarian lasagne and chicken goujons. The restaurant, which features two authentic turf fires, also offers an evening menu with specialties such as Jacobs’ Irish Beef Stew, seasonal dishes, and homemade beef burgers. All ingredients are sourced locally and prepared to order.

Surrounded by the breathtaking Irish countryside, this boutique hotel provides free parking and convenient access to cycling, hill walking, and horse riding activities. Both Dublin and Dublin Airport are easily reachable within a one-hour drive from the property.

Couples especially appreciate the location, giving it a rating of 8.9 for a getaway for two.
