Gorgeous spacious cottage in pretty garden setting in Sunny South East Ireland!

Located in a large, richly planted courtyard garden, Horseshoe Cottage has been transformed from its previous life as farm stables to become a bright, spacious 2-bedroom cottage with traditional features while providing all the comforts and luxuries needed for a calm relaxed holiday in a friendly atmosphere.
The cheerful yellow front door sets the tone for this uplifting country cottage, with its bright hallway from where the en-suite Master Bedroom is on the left and the family Bathroom and Twin Bedroom are to the right. A glazed door from the front hall leads into the especially spacious split-level living area.
With high beamed ceilings and painted stone walls, the living room is flooded with light from Velux windows. The kitchen has all electric appliances including electric hob/fan oven, microwave, fridge/freezer, dishwasher, washing machine, tumble dryer, electric kettle, toaster, coffee maker, blender, iron and ironing board. The kitchen has lots of pots, pans, utensils as well as crockery, cutlery, tea towels, kitchen roll etc. An adjacent dining table has 4 chairs and a door from the kitchen opens into an enclosed private sunny patio with table and chairs, parasol and BBQ.
Separated from the kitchen by a feature internal chimney and at a slightly higher level, the comfortable lounge has a couch, 2 easy chairs and a wood burner and a well-stocked book-case, and the large flat screen TV has Irish, UK and international channels.
The Master Bedroom has a 5 ft bed, wardrobe and drawers, and it has an en-suite shower and WC.
Bedroom 2 has twin beds, wardrobe and a desk with chair and it is located beside the family bathroom which has bath/shower and WC.
The farm is in a quiet, tranquil location, away from it all, yet close to so many amenities and beauty spots!

Birthday break
We stayed for seven days in the Horse Shoe Cottage. The cottage was fantastic everything one would need was provided. The owners were very sociable and really friendly. We will definitely consider booking again with this couple.

Great hosting in beautiful area
Really spacious and lovely historical building converted into a holiday cottage. Patricia & Roger are perfect hosts and extremely welcoming and responsive. They provide you with lots of helpful local information. The respond quickly when contacted with any requests or issues. Unfortunately, we found the bed in the main bedroom very hard and struggled to sleep well. We had a problem with water temperature in the shower but Roger came and sorted that out. But the water pressure isn’t great. Overall we had a lovely holiday but it was unfortunate about the bed.

Our week in Wextord
The property was perfect and had everything in it that we needed. It is in a great location and places like Hook Head, Tramore, Dunmore East, Kilmore Quay, Wexford, New Ross are a relatively short drive away. There are some excellent places to eat nearby such as The Hollow, Kehoes in Kilmore Quay, The Strand in Duncannon. We also got excellent takeaway from the Very Well Cafe in Ramsgrange. I would 100% recommend this property as a place to stay.

What wonderful find this place was!!
We could not have been happier! What a lovely place in the country with so much charm and ambience. And a great location to jump off to so many charming adventures. You MUST go to the JFK Homestead. Mary Murphy gave us the BEST experience there. Also go to Hook Lighthouse - beautiful area. Another must is Coventry Stores - a pub in Wexford. Visit on a Sunday at noon to enjoy local musicians playing Irish music while you have your lunch! Patricia and Roger, thank you for a very comfortable and enjoyable stay, One of the highlights of our trip!!

Quaint cozy cottage
We with 2 kids 7 & 10 loved our staycation in Wexford. This cottage was a perfect base for us to organise ourselves and have day trips to all that Wexford has to offer. The owners were brilliantly friendly and accommodating. Big thumbs up.
