Great Beach Views From This House.

If you are looking for a 3 bedroom house with a great beach, sea and landscape view, this is the one for you. Fantastic view of the beach and harbour is what most people comment on. We have free Wi-Fi and Sky TV with a selection of shows and films recorded. 2 bedrooms and bathroom upstairs, double bedroom en-suite downstairs adjoining living room and kitchen. You can go for a walk on the beach before breakfast, have a friendly chat with one of the locals then go to the shop for the paper and a chat with Peggy, the owner. You can see Hook Lighthouse from the house, go there after breakfast and take the tour, then walk through the fields along the cliffs to Slade Harbour, a walk not to be missed, the scenery is amazing. Go back along the road and have lunch in the restaurant at the visitor centre. In the afternoon visit Loftus Hall, a big house with a lot of history, take the tour, see the great stairway and hear the stories of ghosts and the devil. In the evening go to Hal's or Roches on the corner in Duncannon, taste fantastic fish landed that day on Duncannon Quay or beef and lamb that have been raised grass fed on local farms. The potatoes, vegetables and fruit will also be from the locality. If you would like to eat in a top class restaurant for a special night out, you have the choice of two within a mile of the village. Dunbroday House, home to celebrity chef, Kevin Dundon is very special as is the annual award winning Aldridge Lodge. Top class food from top class chefs always. An experience you won't forget. Next day you could travel to Tintern Abbey, just 5 mile away, take the tour of grounds and garden, go for a walk in one of the designated areas, get a meal or cup of coffee when you finish. Dunbrody Abbey is also worth a visit, great location near the river, a secret passage way is said to link it with the buildings where you park. A maze and crazy golf are also part of this attraction. Further on the road to New Ross is the JF Kennedy arboretum, a great playground and a walk to the viewing point are some of the highlights. Learn lots about the plants and trees planted here. Go on to the Kennedy Homestead a few miles away and then to the Famine Ship, the Dunbrody on the quayside in New Ross. See the Norman Tapestry and walk around the historic town. Next day go to Wexford, Johnstown Castle is very scenic and has a great museum, visit The Heritage Centre in Ferrycarrig, see the homes rebuilt from the stone age. if you fancy a bit of shopping go into Wexford town, it has a unique atmosphere, narrow streets and lots of local shops, not a place for the multi-nationals, some great shops with friendly staff and owners. If you fancy a bit of the hurdy gurdys take the ferry to Waterford and go to Tramore, a seaside town with all the traditional amusements we associate with a lively seaside town. If you have any money left go into Waterford and do some shopping, you will find all the big name stores here. Great place to shop. of course you will also have to visit the historic monuments and the world known Waterford Glass. All this is within 20 miles, if you want to go to Dublin or Cork they are only a 2 hour drive away. An easy trip on our great roads. You can easily take off in the morning, see the sights of our biggest cities and return in good time for a pint in Hal's and Irish music that night. If you like an active holiday, this is the place for you. Kitesurfing lessons available from Niall on the beach, he also does board sailing, both great fun. At Shielbaggin Outdoor Adventure Centre about 2 mile away they do canoeing, cliff climbing, surfing and lots of other activities. If you are into golf or fishing you have lots of choice. There are 10 course within an hour's drive. Nearest is Faithlegg, just 6 miles away across the ferry to Waterford. A fine testing 18 hole course, other ones I would recommend are The Castle, on it's own little island near Waterford City, Waterford, Tramore, New Ross and a fine links course in Rosslare. They all have open weeks each year and open days most weeks. Fishing is not bad on Duncannon Beach, you can generally catch a bass or flatfish. You can dig lugworm or buy from a local source. All the bays and harbours are fished, with a mixture of varieties caught. There is a boat for hire in the village, never met anyone disappointed with the trips out to Hook Head or Slade, generally catch more than you can handle. The cliffs from Slade Harbour to Hook are very popular in August and September are very popular for catching mackerel, if you don't fish it is a great place to buy a few fresh in from sea. Overall, Duncannon is a place where you have the choice to either park your car for the week and walk around the beach and village, eat out each night and just generally relax. Alternatively you could go to a different town or county each day, see the sights, experience the culture and be home for a relaxing night. Or you could have a very active holiday, kitesurfing, boardsailing, walking, fishing or golf are within easy reach. You will want to come back again and again.

Relaxing
We were there off season. It was very quiet. We enjoyed the location. The only thing I would recommend is if you plan on eating at the local restaurants make reservations ahead of time even for off season. Tony was very responsive to all my questions. Would recommend. We had a great time thank you!

Seaview
This property is in a quiet seaside village on the Hook Peninsula. The walk to the large beach is about two minutes and when you are not on the beach you can be watching it from the living room window. Very enjoyable relaxing place to stay.

Breathtaking Views!
Magnificent views right out the window. Had logs on the fire ready to light. Ample space. Just remember you pay extra for oil and electricity. There's no grocery store currently in the town, but a lovely place to dine called Wild Rose Cafe right around the corner. We did have a few minor issues but Mr. Wallace came right over and took care of them.

Nice house with Friendly Owner
We had a beautiful visit at this house. The view was my very favorite thing. I loved being able to take a short walk to the beach as well as a couple of nice pubs/resuraunts.Tony was very helpful, made great suggestions for our stay. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend staying with Tony.

Disappointed.
There were numerous bulbs. out of order and the en-suite light casing was broken, meaning no light available. The property had a very uncomfortable bed and uncomfortable armchairs. The curtains in the bedroom were not hung properly. The kitchen door blind was broken. There were no dishwasher tablets. The dishwasher smelt and needed rinse aid and salt. Very disappointed for the price we paid. As an aside, Southern Ireland is not a dog friendly place. We were unable to take our dog into any pub so we could get a pint of Guinness :(.

Lovely house in an idyllic location
We have just left Beach View following a weeks holiday. Thoroughly recommended, house is lovely with everything you need. The owners are such a lovely couple and nothing was a bother - it was really nice to meet you both and thank you for your hospitality. The location was amazing, excellent views and just 2 minutes onto the beach. Lots to do in the area too - think it would be beneficial to have a car. We have had a lovely time and cannot thank the owners enough. Look forward to the next time.
