About this property
Gorgeous spacious cottage in pretty garden setting in Sunny South East Ireland!
Located in a large, richly planted courtyard garden, Horseshoe Cottage has been transformed from its previous life as farm stables to become a bright, spacious 2-bedroom cottage with traditional features while providing all the comforts and luxuries needed for a calm relaxed holiday in a friendly atmosphere. The cheerful yellow front door sets the tone for this uplifting country cottage, with its bright hallway from where the en-suite Master Bedroom is on the left and the family Bathroom and Twin Bedroom are to the right. A glazed door from the front hall leads into the especially spacious split-level living area. With high beamed ceilings and painted stone walls, the living room is flooded with light from Velux windows. The kitchen has all electric appliances including electric hob/fan oven, microwave, fridge/freezer, dishwasher, washing machine, tumble dryer, electric kettle, toaster, coffee maker, blender, iron and ironing board. The kitchen has lots of pots, pans, utensils as well as crockery, cutlery, tea towels, kitchen roll etc. An adjacent dining table has 4 chairs and a door from the kitchen opens into an enclosed private sunny patio with table and chairs, parasol and BBQ. Separated from the kitchen by a feature internal chimney and at a slightly higher level, the comfortable lounge has a couch, 2 easy chairs and a wood burner and a well-stocked book-case, and the large flat screen TV has Irish, UK and international channels. The Master Bedroom has a 5 ft bed, wardrobe and drawers, and it has an en-suite shower and WC. Bedroom 2 has twin beds, wardrobe and a desk with chair and it is located beside the family bathroom which has bath/shower and WC. The farm is in a quiet, tranquil location, away from it all, yet close to so many amenities and beauty spots!

Great location, Owners are very friendly and lovely. We felt at home and were very comfortable, groceries etc very close, central to several great areas. We didn't want to leave.Thanks Patricia for your hospitality
The property is well equipped and clean. The hosts are very helpful and friendly. The property is ideally situated for expooring wexford an wayerford area
Had a wonderful week exploring the area on our road bicycles. Cottage was a beautiful and comfortable place to rest and enjoy. Hosts were super friendly, thoughtful and welcoming.
We stayed for seven days in the Horse Shoe Cottage. The cottage was fantastic everything one would need was provided. The owners were very sociable and really friendly. We will definitely consider booking again with this couple.
Our visit was wonderful. The cottage is really comfortable and we'll equipped. The location is fantastic, a really good spot for exploring the area. Very enjoyable and our dogs loved it too.
Excellent accommodation, home from home with all amenities. An excellent base from which to explore other ares of Wexford and beyond.Hosts were very nice and helpful.
We had a great stay in horseshoe cottage. It was so comfortable and we all slept really well. The kids had a blast exploring outside and the views and proximity to historical sites, Kennedy Park, New Ross and waterford with the new bypass was wonderful. There was perfect communication throughout and the accommodation was perfectly equipt. Thank you Mag.
The property was perfect and had everything in it that we needed. It is in a great location and places like Hook Head, Tramore, Dunmore East, Kilmore Quay, Wexford, New Ross are a relatively short drive away. There are some excellent places to eat nearby such as The Hollow, Kehoes in Kilmore Quay, The Strand in Duncannon. We also got excellent takeaway from the Very Well Cafe in Ramsgrange. I would 100% recommend this property as a place to stay.
Spacious, well-equipped, private cottage in a tranquil garden setting, with easy access to cities, villages, sites and amenities. It was just the two of us, but the layout with two baths, and bedrooms at opposite ends of the house from one another would offer plenty of privacy for housemates. Parking is easy. The wif-fi is strong. Even on cloudy days, the many skylights and windows keep the home bright. The hosts are wonderful! Their years of experience are evident in their offering the perfect balance of service, attentiveness and respect for privacy.
We could not have been happier! What a lovely place in the country with so much charm and ambience. And a great location to jump off to so many charming adventures. You MUST go to the JFK Homestead. Mary Murphy gave us the BEST experience there. Also go to Hook Lighthouse - beautiful area. Another must is Coventry Stores - a pub in Wexford. Visit on a Sunday at noon to enjoy local musicians playing Irish music while you have your lunch! Patricia and Roger, thank you for a very comfortable and enjoyable stay, One of the highlights of our trip!!
Really spacious and lovely historical building converted into a holiday cottage.
Patricia & Roger are perfect hosts and extremely welcoming and responsive. They provide you with lots of helpful local information.
The respond quickly when contacted with any requests or issues. Unfortunately, we found the bed in the main bedroom very hard and struggled to sleep well. We had a problem with water temperature in the shower but Roger came and sorted that out. But the water pressure isn’t great. Overall we had a lovely holiday but it was unfortunate about the bed.
Die schöne Ferienwohnung mit zwei Schlafzimmern und zwei Badezimmern war der ideale Ausgangspunkt für die Erkundung der Halbinsel Hook. Die Städte Wexford und Waterford sind mit dem Auto schnell erreichbar. Das nahe gelegene New Ross bietet alles für den täglichen Bedarf und einige Sehenswürdigkeiten.Die Vermieter sind fraundlich und hilfsbereit. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt und kommen gerne wieder.
Sehr schönes geräumiges Cottage mit allem was man benötigt.
Die Vermieter sind auch sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit.
In der ganzen Umgebung findet man Interessantes zum besichtigen und Wandern.
Toller Ausgangspunkt für die Erkundung des Südostens von Irland
Wir hatten eine sehr schöne Woche dort. Die Gastgeber waren sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Es ist absolut zu empfehlen. Ruhige Lage und man ist schnell bei vielen Ausflugszielen.
We with 2 kids 7 & 10 loved our staycation in Wexford. This cottage was a perfect base for us to organise ourselves and have day trips to all that Wexford has to offer. The owners were brilliantly friendly and accommodating. Big thumbs up.
