The cottage is really great. Beautiful. We loved it. Wish we could have stayed longer. An absolutely quintessential Irish country experience: peaceful dreamy quiet evenings, turf fire in the hearth, long walks, full moon over the rolling hills , babbling streams, blackberry patches bursting with fruit along both sides of the lane ...
The hosts were immediately accessible and responsive to the few questions that we had. Cottage fully outfitted with towels, household items, kitchen supplies, etc.
The cottage is quite antique and rustic in a J.M. Synge sort of way, and it is very much out of the way tucked in a secluded hollow up in the Wicklow Mountains. Its remoteness and quaintness are what made it so fun and unforgettable a visit for us. Make sure that you’re ready for a little step back in time …
That said, except for wi-fi and a dishwasher, the cottage has all modern amenities one would need: heating throughout, hot water, clothes washer and dryer, and a surprisingly huge bathroom. Plus lots of reading material, musical instruments, and a large fireplace.
We look forward to returning.
