A real beauty. There are a dozen beaches to choose from in the South of Wexford, the nicest of which is a 5 minute drive from Lavender Cottage (called Baginbun, where the Normans first landed in Ireland I believe).

The house is beautifully restored, full of natural light and space for a young family. Our two boys adored the bunk bed (safety rails included), the lego, toy chests, children's books and climbing trees in the garden. There's even buckets and spades. However, it is located on the main village road, so toddlers would need strictest supervision.

Superb style - the main bedroom is a gorgeous surprise (no photos included, but it's very very cool and super comfortable). Wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to friends and family.
