Photos and Description of the County Wicklow vacation farmhouse rental Adjoining national hill walkway, 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, sleeps 4/5

Totally rebuilt stone house on 12 acres of farmland,. Very comfortable, modern and bright home which retains a traditional feel. It looks across two valleys & has beautiful & ever-changing views, both of distant mountains and touch- close heather covered hills. The property is accessed up a short country lane & has its own private gated avenue. There is a stoned yard surrounding the house, with parking space. It has a large south facing veranda where one can spend time gazing into the distance & listening to the sounds of the countryside. At night the hum of the river gets louder and (weather permitting) you are guaranteed an incredible view of the night sky. This house and its idyllic setting will charm even the most jaded traveller. It is an ideal holiday location for nature lovers, hill walkers, writers & anyone who wants to get away from it all and simply enjoy the quiet beauty of the countryside! Note : This property is for the use of paying guests only. Parties not allowed.

Wicklow Way, hill walking, Glendalough, historic sights. A river runs along the bottom of the farm, as well as a national walkway - The Wicklow Way. It stretches south to Carlow and as far north as Dublin right through the spectacular gorges and glens of the Wicklow mountains. Walks range from easy strolls to difficult climbs. The historic valley of Glendalough, with its round tower and monastic ruins, is 30 minute drive away. Nearest villages are 3 miles on either side & the large towns of Carlow, Kilkenny & its castle & Arklow's beach are a pleasant drive through open green countryside. Powerscourt House & gardens, Jerpoint Abbey and the historic Wicklow jail must be seen. Dublin, presently the busiest capital in Europe is only an hour’s drive away. You can have the best of both worlds by spending some of your days in Dublin & the rest exploring the hauntingly beautiful country landscape that Ireland is famous for. Friendly pubs, excellent food, and fresh unpolluted air abound.

Notes: Children are welcome on the basis that they are properly supervised at all times. If you want a holiday where your children can experience everyday country life and enjoy the wonder of nature close up ,then this is the place to visit. The farm is home to a large variety of wildlife, rabbits, foxes, many varieties of small birds. Sheep and cattle, farm machinery cutting crops etc. The trails are great for exploring the common land and enjoying the huge range of flora & fauna that grows in the wild. Nowhere better on a clear night for young stargazers! This is an opportunity to educate your children in a relaxed way and enjoy a.most memorable family holiday. However if you just want to sit back and let the children run wild for a week, this house will not suit. Children would almost certainly need more careful watching than they would at home to ensure their own safety, and avoid damage to the proper.

Wicklow Farmhouse

Mac Karen California
Review Submitted: October 14, 2008 Date of Stay: September 2008
very comfortable location - remote, yet close to small town and accessible to the entire east coast area. Good communication with owners at all times. They met us in town to be sure we could find the house as it is up several small roads and the final driveway would surely be missed by a new comer to the area. Owners are very accomodating and make you feel right at home. Views of surrounding farmland and hills is stunning and very relaxing. Wickow Way trail very near property that you can access for nice walks. Modern amenities in house are nice. Showers are small but tubs are large. Kitchen is large and nice to cook in. Property was well maintained and comfortable to stay in. We used the house as a base for two weeks in Ireland. The owners provided a nice and convenient suggestion for us to travel to Dublin, and gave us directions to park outside of the city and told us which bus to take in. We would not have figured it out without their help and it made the trip into Dublin very easy. Travel to Dublin was 60-75 minutes. Golfing is very near and we played five courses which were all about 30-60 minutes away. Incredible courses with excellent views of forests, rivers, lakes and the ocean. When I travel, I like cozy down bedding with very comfy pillow top mattresses adn big fluffy pillows- the beds were functional and comfortable but not overwhelming 'cozy'. 3 rooms had twin beds and one a double - a queen would have been nice, but the farmhouse has small rooms. Maybe more a matter of personal opinion vs a dislike. The large dining, kitchen andl living room area are very warm. The heating in the house is very comfortable. You can hear rain on the windows at night which is pleasant. I would recommend this highly.

Our Stay

Neil b Washington DC
Review Submitted: October 26, 2009 Date of Stay: September 2009
We had a wonderful time . Traveling with 2 children and 2 close friends we couldn't have found a better spot .
It was child friendly with every amenity one would want - important traveling with 2 younger children and important traveling with two foodies ( our friends love to cook ) . The house was big enough for all of us with a TV room and separate game room upstairs . We took the extra room to give our friends some private space although we need not have .
The owners were wonderful , they gave us the run down of the house , suggested local walks ( the house is right on a hiking trail ) they even supplied us with basic necessities until we could stock up . We did a lot of sightseeing around Wicklow and the Dublin area and always found the house welcoming to come back to .

Peaceful, rural holiday house

The Vught Connection The Netherlands
Review Submitted: October 16, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
This was a well equipped, clean & spacious holiday home. The facilities in the house were first class. The outdoor space was beautiful and extremely child friendly. The owners were extremely helpful on arrival and provided much information to help us find our way around Ireland. The location is quite remote and perfect for those who want to "get away from it all " but located perfectly to explore the rest of Ireland. The local village was small but had many shops so grocery shopping was not a problem. This is a perfect holiday accomodation for those who enjoy the countryside and a peaceful holiday but want to enjoy it in extreme comfort! I would recommend this property - suitable for families and large groups.

a wonderful week in an astonishing nice house

Review Submitted: August 21, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
We 4 (2 Austrians and 2 Swiss) had a beautiful time in this really great and nice house.
We made sometimes long walks, especially on the very pleasant Wicklow Way, and several trips to a lot of interesting places you can reach within approx. 1 hour by car: Kilkenny, Glendalough, Powerscourt House and Gardens, Avondale House and Forest Park, Russborough House, Baltinglass Abbey, Wicklow, Arklow and Dublin.
We found the train from Rathdrum to Dublin very convenient, you don't need a car or bus in Dublin and Pearse Station is well in the town center, so you can reach most places of interest by foot. We highly recommend the Book of Kells in Trinity College and the Chester Beatty Library, both great impressions.
The next small town Tinahealy has some good pubs and food stores.
The house itself is very comfortable, very clean, has plenty room, is beautiful situated with great views and is generally an astonishing experience where you feel really good. You will get what you see.
The owner is very friendly and helpful.
We recommend this house to everyone seeking quiet and comfortable holidays in a healthy environment and also to those who like to investigate the Wicklows and also Dublin.
We hope to spend one or more weeks there another year.

“it doesn’t get any better than this”

Nomads Melbourne Australia
Review Submitted: July 16, 2009 Date of Stay: May 2009
We needed time to rest and regroup and found this home was perfect for our requirements. We had six glorious weeks enjoying Co Wicklow in this beautiful country setting.

It has the most stunning views of rolling green hills of small pastures with sheep and cows and sitting on the balcony with a glass of wine in the evenings we thought “it doesn’t get any better than this”.

We found that there were lots of places to visit for day trips (and plenty of information provided in the house) and particularly enjoyed Glendaloch (on weekdays); the walk to Loch Dan and Altamont Gardens. Most of our time, however, we spent exploring the little country roads and stopping for a walk; and we think the best bit of the Wicklow Way runs over the creek at the bottom of the property and up over the hill.

The house is a family home so is very well equipped and has quality furnishings not always found in holiday accommodation. Mary and John were very friendly and helpful and genuinely concerned that we enjoyed our stay. We were very fortunate that we had lots of sunny, warm weather and it was also fine watching the clouds roll by on other days and have the time to read in a comfortable warm house.

We would absolutely recommend this property, and its owners, to anyone we know!
