Joanna’s lovely home was the first stop on my family’s Irish holiday, and we are so grateful that it was. Not only are you getting a conveniently located, clean, spacious, and beautiful home to stay in for your visit to the Wicklow area, but you are being hosted by truly, one of the most generous and considerate families that I have ever met, anywhere in the world. On route to Joanna’s place from the Dublin airport, our rental car broke down with all our baggage and our hungry, exhausted toddler twins in the backseat. Not knowing what to do (or really, where we even were), I contacted Joanna. Her and her lovely husband, Simon, immediately acted to help us- calling me repeatedly while Simon drove around the area until he found us, and ultimately, rescued us by driving our entire family and all our baggage to the house. Simon later made multiple trips with my husband to return to the abandoned car and meet with the tow truck. They even gave the rental agency their phone number for easier communication, and Joanna offered dinner to my family (even though the food items that were already provided in the house were more than enough to feed us)! These are truly wonderful people, who not only spared us from being stuck on the side of the road all night, but who reframed the tone of our entire trip with their kindness. The home, itself, is fantastic - has everything you need, on a beautiful property - so family friendly! The playground, the pond, the turtles, the horses, the fort - my little ones loved it all. Joanna even provided TWO cribs/infant cots (with crisp clean linens), stairgates, high chair, and an array of games and toys for my twins. I could go on, but you will sincerely not regret staying in this home and meeting this family. I cannot thank you guys enough!!
