Wow! What can we say - we have never stayed in an airbnb, a b&b or a hotel as lovely as this special place. It is really very unique :) Denise and Seamus are the most sweet and lovely couple - so welcoming and friendly whilst also being great hosts and making your trip super special.
Upon arrival we were warmly greeted by Denise who showed us to the little cottage! It is just so special as a little place to spend time in, let alone as a hub for exploring the beautiful Wicklow mountains! Waiting for us were scones, brownies and other cakey things (yum!) as well as a super little book of information which was very useful. Denise and Seamus themselves are so so knowledgeable about the area and so were very happy to share this with us which we are so grateful for.
The little cottage is very very cosy and we had a super time playing board games we brought with us, as well as reading books. We wanted to escape the city and have a quiet new years before our baby arrives in May (eeek!). The cottage as everything you need - a fridge, hobs, pots and pans, glasses, cutlery, mugs, a kettle, microwave etc. Even eggs cups! We like to stay in when away and cook and we definitely felt we had everything we needed which was fab. It is also so clean which is lovely. You feel so happy going to sleep and waking up there - just so relaxed. Being back in Dublin now we're missing it already ;)
The countryside around the house itself is just breathtaking - if you just wanted a couple of quiet nights in, not venturing out, you would still be satisfied just being here. You can hear a waterfall in the distance, the trees blowing in the wind. WOW. It is just so peaceful and breathtaking, but calming too. The countryside further afield, well, that is something else. We went to Glendalough and had the most amazing walk. Being thee only for 1 full day we took advantage of focusing on this and just being cosy at home! We would recommend this for sure but if you're there for longer there is so much more to see too.
We would stay here again in a heartbeat - definitely recommend booking!!!!
