“Loved the cottage.”
It is in a perfect location with beauitful beaches near by. It is walking distance to the pub shop and cafe. It is very tranquil and very peaceful. The owners left us a packet if buscuits and a bittle of milk which was a lovely touch.

Mrs Blount “Was a lovely holiday, but you need a car, lovely welcoming at local pub but was ...”
Was a lovely holiday, but you need a car, lovely welcoming at local pub but was disappointed they didn’t have any Irish music playing or live music, but they were really nice group of locals
Mr Marquis “The area was lovely and the cottage setting.”
However, the bed was really uncomfortable and we were forced, after two sleepless nights, to purchase a blow up mattress which was not ideal, especially in the heat. WiFi would be an advantage in this day and age. We intend to use your service again in future.
Mrs Williams “It was a lovely cosy cottage and it felt welcoming and friendly we enjoyed our holiday very much .”
Mr Ansell “Lovely quirky cottage in a gorgeous location Very clean and tidy with everything you could possibly need”
Mrs Johnston “Beautiful traditional thatched cottage.”
Private enclosed garden in a village location. With some good pubs near by.

“Great character cottage in quiet rural setting”
Lovely traditional cottage extended at rear to provide 2 bedrooms sleeping four comfortably. Everything you could need is there and the garden at rear got the sun (yes sun!) all day. And evening. Owners vey helpful with directions, keys etc. The twins beds are a little tired as was the bedding but spotlessly clean. The extended parts of the cottage were great with lots of room throughout. Seemed to be lots of moths in the lounge but with a thached roof no surprise there. We stayed in UK May half term which does not take place in Ireland so relatively quiet in terms of kiddie activities in surrounding areas including Courttown - great pool but make sure you take hats, with outdoor playground on approach. Wells house is a must to walk the fairy trail and get the kids to find the fairy doors. Gorey is great and recommend Partridges for lunch. Nearby beaches are fantastic and we had them all to ourselves.

“Modern enough inside and comfy, loungeroom lovely and warm”
My husband and I stayed here for a week March 2013 - I thought I'd reviewed the place but obviously didn't. The weather was terribly cold when we visited Ireland and we found the cottage great to come home to after a day out and about. We went out every day, all day. We left the heaters on but I can say the loungeroom holds heat very well and is nice to lounge around in at night with a drink after dinner. The kitchen had everything we needed and we often cooked meals at home. We went to the local pub but there was a wedding reception on so it was packed, we had 1 drink and left. Make sure you go out to Cahore Point, the pub has a great view and is very inviting. Booking was a breeze, no complaints there. The cottage was lovely and clean, I do remember the bed being a bit hard or short though ( I am 5 foot 10). The washing machine and dryer was most welcomed! We loved how the lounge area of the cottage in particular runs the same pitch and direction as the road, sideways downhill haha! It was no problem and just added to the charm of the place and it's only a slight thing but we could definitely feel it. Driving out onto the road was at times a bit hairy due to bushes and hedges, so take care with that. We would go back again and it is very good value for money. The front bedroom that has the 2 single beds was pretty small but you don't spend all your time sleeping anyway so get out amongst it all and enjoy. One last thing, we went to the wrong cottage as there is one just up the road with a red door hahaha, luckily they weren't home. Fiona

“Lovely Cottage”
Lovely cottage in little village, has 2 oubs & one handy if a tad pricey shop. You can walk to Cahore beach & find coastal path. BUT Morriscastle beach is lovely. Cottage has everything you could need -slight gripe - double bed is very small we are used to a superking - you might struggle if very tall. Kitchen had everthing you could need & we did cook. Recommend Gorey for shopping & there is a Sunday market in village hall for local produce. Good base for discovering Enniscorthy, Wexford, Wicklow or just be lazy on the beach in the sun!

“A great base to explore Wexfords beaches”
The cottage was just right for us with 2 small children, it had everything we needed and was also roomy and comfortable for rainy days! It was very clean when we arrived. It was a perfect base to explore the surrounding area, which for us meant easy access to some great beaches, which our 3 year old loved as there is lots and lots of digging to be done! Gorey was easy to access for shopping and other amenities. We did a day trip to Wexford itself which was within reach and perfect for a rainy day.
