What you will love about this home
Our home is a two storey house situated in County Wexford, known as the Sunny Southeast, the sunniest corner of Ireland. We are located between the towns of Gorey (12km) and Arklow (10km). We have a beautiful garden with a vegetable garden from where we grow lots of our own food. Our kitchen is the heart of the home and the kitchen table is at the centre of it all - we always cook and eat breakfast and dinner together.
We have WiFi and cable TV, but in the summer months we much prefer to be out having a picnic or barbecue! We have 4 bikes and plenty of beach gear, including a large double kayak (seats 2 adults + 2 kids) and life jackets for 4. The beaches of Kilpatrick (which is our favourite), Clones Strand and Clogga are just few minutes drive away. We are minutes away from the beautiful hill and woodland walks of Tara Hill and Ballyfad Woods.
We are 60 mins drive from Dublin, 50 mins from Wexford Town and 1hr 15 mins from the port of Rosslare Harbour.
There are plenty of toys around the house and garden for children including a trampoline and superb outdoor swing and slide set.
