No. 6 An Seanachai Holiday Homes

A lovely location, ideal for exploring the Sunny South-east.

The location is quiet and peaceful and just a short drive to Dungarvan, the Gold Coast, Comeragh Mountains and a range of other amenities. We love coming back to this place.

Just back from a great stay in no 6.

The house was well equipped and comfortable. The bedrooms and living space were so spacious, the photos definitely didn’t do it justice!! The location was great, close to Dungarvan for shopping etc and then the opposite direction close to Ardmore and Ring with beautiful beaches and coffee shops! The local link bus provides a great, regular service, across from the house even on the weekends. The owner, Eugene, was contactable if required which was reassuring but the information pack provided had all the information needed for appliances etc. Finally, we had extended family members staying also and the downstairs bedroom and bathroom were separated from the kitchen by a door giving them extra privacy. Just a note to parents with small children the property doesn’t have a bath!

We had a lovely stay, we had 3 small kids & house was perfect for us.

Everything we needed and plenty of space.

We enjoyed our holiday very much in Seanachai.

The house had everything we needed, pity about the pub been closed, was great to have the local link bus stop right outside to take us to Dungarvan and to Youghal if we wished to go. Definitely would recommend it to others and we would have no problem returning again some time. It was nice to get the call from Eugene wishing us a good holiday.

Only 2 x glass beakers for 6 person !

! & one of those was plastic. The oven & hob are disgustingly dirty. The whole house stank. The pillows and duvets had stain and stank of greasy hair, we woke up with our own hair smelling and clothing smelling. The can opener was no good,it would not open tins, so I had to buy my own one. Location is not very nice, among a housing estate of people coming & going to work and also it is adjacent to a grotty old closed down pub. We have rented many cottages over the years and in several countries and this one has been by far the worse. Needs a total clean out, also needs new oven, hob, pillows, duvets etc.

Absolutely beautiful week stay!

Everything was spotless, everything needed supplied, gorgeous rooms and house layout, lovely owner with lovely instructions and lovely phone call before arrival highly highly recommend!

Although we found the accommodation comfortable there were a few negative factors.

The information provided was very out of date the telephone number for help was unavailable- there were no instructions for using the heaters or hot water. The electric fire in the lounge couldn’t be used because the flex couldn’t reach the sockets and there was no extension cable!!! But generally we enjoyed our holiday and it was convenient for our needs.

This was our second holiday here.

We were very happy with our stay, having a week of excellent weather added to our time there. 10 minutes from the beach / town and the greenway makes it an ideal base. Local link bus stop to Youghal and Dungarvan next door is very convenient. I would highly recommend a stay at no.6.

Really lovely owner.

House is great Really comfortable with stunning views from the back bedrooms.

Suited our needs very well.

Received a call from the owner prior to arrival, very friendly, informative helpful, was on hand if any thing went awry. One minor glitch with the downstairs shower en-suite, re: cold water. Turned out the mains box had tripped all that was required was a simple push of the mcb in the mains fuse box in the porch. Thank you Eugene and for the voice message asking if everything went ok.

We had a very enjoyable and lovely holiday, the home has everything you need and is like a home from home.

The owner contacted me to wish us a safe journey, which was lovely and left us a lovely welcome gift. This is our second stay at No. 6 and we will definitely be back. It is a great base for travelling around, we even went to FOTA Wildlife which is less than an hour’s drive away from the house.

Communication pre-holiday was great, including a call from the owner on the day of arrival.

When we arrived there was a note and 2 bottles of wine to welcome us, which was a lovely welcome. Overall, the place was well equipped, with a good range of utensils etc for self catering. The only thing we really noticed wasn't there were any larger serving spoons - though there were 3 soup ladles! The walls are quite thin, so you can hear noises from neighbouring units - one night there was a lot of noise and loud music from the neighbours which disturbed our children when trying to sleep. In terms of rubbish and recycling, it appeared there was next to no recycling bins on site, which was a bit disappointing as we are quite hot on recycling and hated putting card etc into the bins. We would have beniffitted from there being some instructions about how to use the hot water and heaters. We worked it out by trial and error in the end, but would have valued some instructions.

In mid November (2024) we decided to treat ourselves to another self catering holiday in Ireland.

Having thoroughly enjoyed our earlier visit (April 2024) we decided to revisit No. 6 Seanachai. We are very happy to reaffirm and repeat our earlier "review" - the very warm welcome, the well equipped facilities, and the spacious and comfortable accommodation. Truly a home from home. Our sincere thanks to the owner Mr Eugene Fitzpatrick and all concerned. We look forward to our next visit.

Great property in a great, quiet location.

Comfortable beds, everything we needed was there. The owner contacted us prior to arrival and on day of departure wishing us well. The pub a few yards away is closed, maybe the description could be changed? More crockery in the kitchen would be a advantage for bigger parties.

I would like to bring to the attention of the property owner that the house needs some attention as follow, 1) blinds on kitchen window 2) bucket & mop / sweeping brush or a vacuum cleaner 3) some decent cooking utensils / pans / knives etc 4) toilets down stairs / light not working & flushing takes ages to fill & sink is blocked

We had a very pleasant stay in no 6.

Very convenient close to Helvic Ardmore and dungarvan. Very quite rural area, Everything was as advertised.

We had thoroughly enjoyable stay at the cottage.

Very clean with all modern appliances, good location to dungarven town and surrounding areas. Very quiet so always had a good night's sleep. The owner was very helpful and on hand if required although we did not have any need to call him. I would book the cottage again.

House was like a home from home, had everything we needed.

It is a great location for travelling around Waterford and not far from Dungarvan town. Would highly recommend staying here, we are looking forward to coming back next year

A beautiful clean spacious house, loads of room and 3 toilets a really brilliant addition, especially with 3 teens.

Really good location only minutes from Dungarvan and 20 minutes from Youghal. A real pity the Seacachai bar is closed but the Marine bar is only a few minutes away and a real gem. If you stay here a visit is a must. Thank you to Eugene for the use of his house a real gentleman, thank you.

We specifically chose this accommodation for its quiet locality, and with the `An Seanachai pub` a short walk from the front door which would enable us to eat out and have a drink without having to drive.

On arrival we passed the advertised `An Seanachai pub` which to our dismay was derelict, and looked as if it had been in that state for a number of years, therefore, to enjoy a drink with our meal meant cooking at the accommodation. The information provided at the accommodation again highlighted the close proximity of the pub and even included a menu. On inspection of the kitchen facilities, we found the oven to be unusable, when opening the door, the smell of an un-cleaned interior was overwhelming. On inspection of the oven trays we found them to be covered with grease and corrosion and appeared not to have been cleaned for some time. On viewing the saucepans internally, we found them to have large carbon deposits filling the dents on the bottom. It took a considerable amount of cleaning to enable us to use these pans. The three fry-pans provided, personally I would have placed straight in the bin. The microwave was clean and usable. Eating in, was reduced to salads. The remainder of the accommodation was clean and functional. As you can imagine this had a serious effect on the enjoyment of our holiday, and would suggest that this accommodation has been mis-advertised.

We have just completed a most enjoyable two week long "self catering" holiday in Ireland.

Via "Hogans/Sykes Holiday Cottages" we rented accommodatiom at No. 6 Seanachai, Pulla, Dungarvan, - a property owned by Mr Eugene Fitzpatrick. We had a great "Irish welcome" from Eugene, - and the property itself was, quite simiply, a real home from home, - clean, well equipped and very spacious. It had all the facilities and comforts anyone could possible require. It was an excellent venue and base to visit the South East of Ireland. Highly recommended. Our many thanks to all concerned, - and we look forward to our next visit. Dewi and Helen (Wales)

A lovely property, we really enjoyed our stay.

Maybe more instructions about the hot water could help as we didn’t realise how to turn it on or that we had to leave it on an hour before using the hot water. But eugene was quick to answer the phone and help us whenever we needed so thank you. Overall a great stay!

We had a lovely stay in number 6.

Eugene was very helpful with great communication when we required it. The house would benefit from additional glasses and mugs but aside from this we couldn't fault the property.

We really enjoyed our stay at Seanachaí holiday homes.

The house was lovely and clean and very well equipped and perfect for my family of five, Eugene the owner was helpful and very kindly left us Wine on our arrival. Location was ideal with easy access to Dungarven town by car where we had a great choice of restaurants to eat and also we were near some of irelands nicest beaches , Clonea and Ardmore. The Waterford greenway cycle is close by ideal for a cycle with spectacular views and we also enjoyed a day a Fota island about 45 min drive away . I am more than happy to recommend and would gladly stay here again to explore more of the south east coast of Ireland.

Spacious , well equipped holiday home.

Much bigger than expected. Great Wi-Fi. Parking no problem. Very nice place. Comfortable to sit around in and very good beds. One of the best we have used.

Spent a lovely week in No.

6 in August. Had everything we needed very comfortable and short drives to fabulous beaches. Thanks to Eugene for the lovely welcome !

We had a great stay at no.

6! House is really clean and has everything you will need. I have stayed at another property on site and this was a much cleaner house. So close to beautiful beaches and short drive to both Waterford and Cork. On arrival and departure had a lovely call from the owner wishing us a safe journey which was a lovely touch. Don’t hesitate in booking you will have a brilliant stay!

We had a very enjoyable stay at No.

6, which is a very nice property and well situated near Dungarvan and between Waterford and Cork. The owner was very helpful, including leaving us a welcome voicemail to make sure we had his number if needed and when I had an issue connecting to the Wifi he offered to come to the property to assist although we sorted it easily without. We didn't have any other issues but if there were I'm sure he would have been equally as helpful to rectify. He also made contact at departure to wish us a safe journey. The property is on a small development which was really quiet. Unfortunately the adjacent pub is temporarily closed at the time of our stay but there's a great bar with live local musicians a short walk away down the lane. Ardmore, about 15 min drive away is an amazing beach and has a great cliff top walk. We'd definitely recommend No. 6!

We would definitely recommend staying at No.

6 An Seanachai. The house is well equipped and situated in a gorgeous spot with stunning vews over the Comeragh Mountains. Eugene is a lovely landlord who took every effort to make us feel welcome and comfortable. We loved the bottle of wine on arrival, and Eugene was very fast to sort things out quickly when minor issues occurred and was generous and very kind. We would definitely book again!

Great location and lovely view of Dungarvan.

Great for traveling cork and Waterford only an hour's drive and Ardmore beech 15 minutes. AN Seanachi Bar right at your door step. Very good holiday homes

We had a lovely stay at An Seanachai Holiday Homes.

It was clean and spacious with good amenities. A beautiful location, and a great base to explore the wonderful coast of South East Ireland.

Lovely spacious house,the downstairs bedroom with shower and toilet is great for anyone who can’t manage the stairs.

Excellent location,few minutes drive from shops,walking distance to a lovely pub/restaurant,delicious food

I wish the owners of these cottages would invest in decent kettles toasters and kitchen utensils.

A lovely cottage done to a high standard needs this level of detail. Great cottage, good location. Overall very happy, but sort the kitchen out!!!!

The doors could do with some oil, especially the back door couldn't get the key out!

really lovely place thanks

Generally very happy with the house.

The one drawback was the TV channels available. The Saorview was poor with no reception for most of the channels. It may be the fault of the TV itself as there was no Saorview box. I would return to this house in this future.

When I first saw the house I thought it looked very shabby and in need of painting outside certainly not like the photograph on the website.

Inside was a little better but we noticed there was no washing up liquid only one teacloth . The wash hand basin upstairs is blocked as it is very slow to empty and the downstairs wash hand basin is also broken not attached to the base. The television reception was very poor as was internet connection. We did have a lovely holiday but were disappointed in our accommodation which was not cheap.

It was just the perfect house in the perfect spot and we loved the old charm of the bar and restaurant.

The house was beautiful and exceptionally spacious. It offered all the comforts of a home away from home. (Needs a tin opener). We were very impressed by their being hand soap, tea towels, dishwasher tablets etc. Would have been nice to arrive to a warm house but the heating was good once up to speed.
