The Sheilbaggin Outdoor Education Centre offers land and watersports such as kayaking, canoeing, rock climbing and orienteering, or visit The Irish Experience in Fethard for an authentic Eco-Adventure experience. You can drive to Ballyhack and take the short ferry across the bay to soak up the vibrant Irish culture in Waterford or visit the county town of Wexford. All before returning to the peace and tranquillity that comes guaranteed at your delightful Fethard-on-Sea cottage.

    Very clean, everything you need and very homely. Fabulous harbour and stunning walk to The Hook Lighthouse which I a must visit. The local people were very friendly and chatty especially Ann next door who was lovely to us. We were lucky to experience Storme Agnes while we were there, what a treat to watch from the upstairs lounge area. We would love to return next year, one of the most relaxing holidays we’ve had. Many thanks for allowing us to stay in your beautiful cottage. Peter & Marie

    Exactly as advertised . Lots of brilliant places to eat within easy driving distance. Easy walk to Hook lighthouse. Ideally located between towns of Wexford and Waterford. A

    The house and location could not be better. The view of the harbor and castle were great. It was fun seeing the rythm of a working fishing port. Our hosts were very nice and generous and delightful people.
