The cottage has loads of character and is very comfortable and spacious. The grounds have a couple of nice spots for socialising. We had a lovely night sitting around the little outdoor fire pit. The kitchen dining area is really spacious so if you like cooking and socialising at the same time there is loads of space. We visited in summer but I think in winter this would also be an excellent place to stay, it would be perfect for a hiking weekend in beautiful Wicklow, the Garden of Ireland.
