    “Having stayed before and had such a wonderful holiday we were excited to return.”

    The house was tidy and welcoming and we were greeted with lovely apple cake milk and fresh breads, initially the owner was lovely and welcoming , new windows have been put in and a new sofa although we did spy damp on the bedroom curtains and the walls behind the beds maybe that’s to be expected with an old farmhouse, the mattresses we’re adequate comfort but one of the rooms is at a slant so the bed is tilted which is a slightly uncomfortable way to sleep but again maybe a feature of an ...

    The house was tidy and welcoming and we were greeted with lovely apple cake milk and fresh breads, initially the owner was lovely and welcoming , new windows have been put in and a new sofa although we did spy damp on the bedroom curtains and the walls behind the beds maybe that’s to be expected with an old farmhouse, the mattresses we’re adequate comfort but one of the rooms is at a slant so the bed is tilted which is a slightly uncomfortable way to sleep but again maybe a feature of an old farm house,it was quirky! that being said we had a great base for exploring beautiful Wexford. And the land is amazing especially the garden Being a dog friendly house we had our pet with us who loved the freedom, the kids loved the large garden and exploring. Even though we had this positive experience there was a few issues after we left. we arrived home to texts about dirty tea towels (which we used for kids particularly toddler general spills in the kitchen ect and cleaning ect as there was no kitchen roll or other kitchen cleaning cloths in the property, we placed them all in the bath for the cleaners to get in one place as there was no washing power available and we couldn’t get the washing machine to work , we thought we had done the right thing but this apparently was a horrendous thing to do we were left a bit shocked. We apologised and sent the owner new tea clothes in the post. We were not aware that we were not allowed to actually use them to clean up. Check out is very early at 10am which is hard to get out if you have young kids or babies and just as we were leaving my autistic daughter accidentally dropped her diluted juice beside her bed, I stripped it as some splashed on the side of the bed sheet and left it for the cleaners, if we had of had more time I would have washed it, apparently this was a horrendous thing to do. Nowhere were we aware that we had to launder sheets dish clothes ect we assumed the cleaners would deep clean as part of the checkout process even though we spent a Considerable amount of time cleaning and tidying before we left and apart from some dirty dish clothes we left the house as we found it as we are a respectful family and would never leave a mess. Our advice is if you have special needs children or toddlers or are a family I wouldn’t recommend the house as the owners told us after we left that kids shouldn’t be allowed a drink in their rooms or that we shouldn’t use dish clothes to clean up spills or use more than one, we assumed they were out there to use. ect they are very particular about these few details and with kids and a special needs child we were there to relax and didn’t think we needed to panic over some spills ect maybe the dish cloths were a bit dirty after a week but it seemed to be a bigger issue than it needed to be.

About the location

FETHARD-ON-SEA, COUNTY WEXFORD

Duncannon 5.5 miles; New Ross 17 miles; Waterford 31.5 miles.

Fethard-on-Sea is a village nestling to the east of the Hook Peninsula, in the south-west of lovely County Wexford. Fethard-on-Sea has a colourful history, including the lifeboat tragedy of 1914, and the Fethard-on-Sea Boycott, which has been immortalised in print and on film. Now a quiet fishing and holiday village, Fethard makes a great base to enjoy sandy beaches, shops and pubs. The Hook Peninsula continues to attract visitors due to the ancient lighthouse and a multitude of beaches. There is a beach a day for a fortnight on the Peninsula, plus there are a variety of watersports, such as diving, snorkelling and shore angling, along with painting and birdwatching. There are many interesting historical sites to visit, such as Tintern Abbey with its walled garden, guided tour and forest walk and medieval abbeys in Dunbrody and Graiguenamanagh, plus the star shaped Elizabethan Fort at Duncannon houses a military and maritime museum, and The Cockleshell Art Gallery. Head up to New Ross and visit the JFK Arboretum or the Dunbrody Famine Ship, or travel over to Waterford in the west or Wexford in the east to take in all they have to offer, from the Wexford Opera House, Johnstown Castle and The Heritage Park to Waterford Castle and Waterford Crystal.
