We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Anna and Jim’s place. They both were extremely hospitable and helpful throughout the stay. Jim was a font of information regarding the estate and the castle.
The cottages are just wonderful, built in the old cow sheds. Lovingly crafted by Jim a number of years ago, they are quirky, and you can only amaze at his skill, when you see all the fittings he has handcrafted and remodelled from salvage. The kitchen has all the equipment for a cook up. There were also condiments and spices in the cupboard, so you didn’t have to buy everything.
The highlight of our stay was the tour that Jim gave us of the old castle. He has extensive knowledge and it was just fascinating to hear his detailed explanations of how it was built. The gardens are extensive and all the work is done by both Anna and Jim.
The location is reasonably close to Wexford and Anna sends you excellent directions. I would recommend you stay at the Castle’s “Cow Sheds” if you ever are contemplating a trip to Ireland. A wonderful experience.
