It is in a pretty much perfect location for us - nearby beautiful beach, quiet grounds and a rural location yet not far from shops etc. The cottage is comfortable and spacious, with pretty much everything you would need. I very much appreciated the provision of a teapot for example! We also loved the large dining room table - perfect for family games night. One lovely bonus is the balcony outside the master bedroom - we used it to spot meteors during the Perseid shower. Brian is very friendly and helpful and a mine of information about the area. We are already planning to be back next year.

Great situation for exploring the small lanes of Wexford by byke and walking.The house is in a quit area with good views and an area to reconnect with Nature.Walking to the beach , you feel at the end of the world. Definitely coming again.

The house has everything you need for a great holiday in the south east, with lovely beaches close by. All appliances etc. worked perfectly and kitchen was well stocked with all the essentials. Beds were very comfortable. Great space outside for kids and dogs to play. Very well equipped and to a very nice standard. The veranda off the main bedroom upstairs was a perfect place to enjoy the beautiful views. Would definitely be back again for another visit.
