Hildi's place is a stunning oasis which is easily reached from Dublin and the nearby towns but feels like it could be in the middle of nowhere, in the best possible way. There has clearly been so much thought put into every detail of the cottage which is full of character and feels very homely. Hildi made us feel welcome from the get go, inviting us to an evening yoga class she was teaching, which was perfect after the drive down. There are many walks nearby - Clara Vale (which we visited on Hildi's recommendation), Glendalough, Brittas Bay, all showcasing the very best of Wicklow's natural beauty. The big fire in the cosy living room was perfect for relaxing at the end of the day (with a vast array of books to choose from). The cooking facilities were great, Hildi also offers breakfast with homemade muesli and local goodies and was very accommodating to our dietary requirements. I'd highly recommend this gorgeous Air B N B to anyone who is looking for somewhere that offers a beautiful base for both activity and relaxation.
