Our stay at Wells House was a fantastic quiet break in beautiful surroundings. Sabine was so kind and thoughtful..we arrived a bit late and she had the wood burner lit ready for us. Throughout our stay Sabine was so thoughtful, without being intrusive at all.
The Tack Room was perfect for us and had everything we needed. We hadn't used a wood burner before but it was no problem. The bedroom in the attic is super cosy and comfortable; the living area just has the breakfast bar for eating at... being short I did find this a little high for me..but fine for most people. The kitchen has all the basics you need and the shower room was clean and had an extra heater if you needed it. The nature of the building means that it has a rustic feel with painted brick, wooden staircase and low beams in the 'attic' bedroom Together with the stove the atmosphere is in keeping with the farm estate.
We loved the grounds of the house for an early morning or evening stroll and as off peak-season the place was quiet and we had them mostly to ourselves. We loved saying good morning to the goats nearby everyday and the estate would be brilliant for families. As another reviewer mentioned you park in the main car park which isnt a problem at all a torch is a good idea if returning after dark.
The location of The Tack Room at Wells House was perfect for us as we wanted to explore the SE of Ireland. We loved it and found plenty of interest within driving distance as well as more locally. The beaches are beautiful and mostly deserted, we had some great walks; loved the mountains; visited Wexford, Waterford, (sad tho the advertised Viking artifacts were away in Dublin); Enniscorthy, Gorey, Kilkenny and had a lovely tow-path/river walk as part of The Barrow Way at Gorebridge stopping for a lovely homemade lunch there right on the river. Wells House was perfectly located for either taking the really quiet back roads...or jumping onto the main roads to get further afield. Then it was relaxing to return each evening to the fire and the tack-room.
