The most beautiful and peaceful place. The cabin was so cosy and homely, we were greeted by the owner’s adorable dog and cats. The amenities such as the hot tub, pizza oven and barbecue were easy to use. The place was equipped with so much: games such as croquet and connect 4, an Alexa for music, a tv, kitchen supplies and everything you need. The bed was super comfortable.

Wow... what a location. We were so happy to have found this AirBnB, it was a great location for exploring the surrounding area, and a perfect place to relax after a day of walking and shopping. The kitchen was well equipped and spacious, making meal prep a social activity with me and my family ... even the teenagers gave a hand :) Rebecca was a fantastic host. I felt well informed from when I initially looked at the listing to when we left the accommodation. And there were lots of little touches and extras which were a really nice surprise. I would not hesitate to go back there again. Thanks!

We had an amazing stay at Ethel’s home. Peaceful location but only a short drive from many amenities. The house was pristine, spacious and has everything you would need.

Elaine's place was our 1st night in Ireland and we were welcomed by seeing the cows and the farm dog, Jomo. The place is very close to Kilkenny and also a few grocery stores nearby to stock up. We enjoyed our time spent at the little cottage and would recommend. Kids had a great time playing with Jomo, whom loves to fetch sticks! Elaine is very nice and we enjoyed chatting.

Beautiful Family home with stunning views

CiaraRating, 5 stars45 months ago

We had a great time staying in this beautiful house. We travelled as a multi generational family, 6 adults and 1 toddler and we had plenty of room. The house was in immaculate condition, so clean and had everything we needed for a great stay. We loved the hosts recommendations and between us we visited Dunbrody Abbey, Tintern Abbey, Kilmokea Gardens, Dunbrody famine ship, and Hook lighthouse all which were nearby. We also took the ferry over to Passage East and drove the Copper Coast road. We visited the JFK arboretum several times as we had our toddler with us who just loved the fabulous playpark. The food and treatments in Creacon Wellness Lodge were fab also. Wexford and Waterford are both within a short drive. We stayed for a week and didn't have enough time to do everything! The only negative for us was that there was no bath which was only difficult as we had a toddler but we managed OK. Everything else was perfect! Would definitely recommend!
