30th birthday stay
Edels home is breath taking. We all felt like kings and queens staying there. Edel has thought of everything for a perfect stay. Even beach towels for our jump off the pier! We had a fabulous stay in an amazing location

An Irish Dream - simply amazing!
Where to start? This beautifully designed and decorated home in a perfectly serene and naturally gorgeous location immediately makes you want to sell your current home and move here. Edel is a wonderful person - she greeted us with freshly baked scones and was kind enough to consider some kitchen basics for the weary travelers. Should you have any questions she is immediately available to help. Her spacious, comfortable, and bright home is so much nicer than any pictures could possibly suggest. We absolutely loved the peaceful privacy, walks down the ‘country’ lane, trips to local towns, and basically being far from any bothers. The very best VRBO we’ve ever stayed in anywhere in the world. Obviously cannot wait to return!

Ruhig und idyllisch
Sehr sauberes, geräumiges und modern ausgestattetes Ferienhaus. Große Küche, 2 Wohnzimmer, großzügiger Essbereich. Sehr gepflegtes Grundstück mit Sitz-und Liegemöglichkeiten im Garten. Ruhige Lage, abseits der Hauptstraßen, daher ist ein Fahrzeug unbedingt notwendig. Ideal, um den Südosten zu erkunden, Waterford, Wexford oder auch Kilkenny sind als Tagesausflüge empfehlenswert, dazwischen gibt es jede Menge Möglichkeiten für Wanderungen oder Strandspaziergänge (mit dem Auto ca. 5 Minuten, zu Fuß eine halbe Stunde). Netter Kontakt zur Gastgeberin, inklusive Rückfrage, ob alles zu unserer Zufriedenheit wäre. Sehr empfehlenswert.

Wonderful Property
We had a fantastic stay at Edel’s property. The house is spacious & clean and is just a short walk from the most beautiful, huge sandy beach. Edel was the perfect host, meeting us on arrival and answering any questions we had promptly.

Wonderful stay at the Grove.
We had a wonderful stay at the ‘Grove’ near old bawn beach and Cahore. Edel was friendly and accommodating, she explained everything to do with the property and local points of interests. There was an extensive list of local restaurants, pubs and other entertainment options as well as emergency contacts etc.. provided. There was nothing the property didn’t have, including kids toys, beach wear and a fully stacked kitchen. The house itself is striking and beautifully decorated throughout, 4 big double bedrooms including 2 en-suites and a family bathroom with Jacuzzi bath! Our party of 8 including 2 toddlers didn’t feel cramped at all, the garden is huge and great for summer bbq’s! The location is self is extremely private, yet 2 minutes from a beautiful white sand beach at old bawn which is never too busy! 5 minutes from Cahore point and 10minutes to morris castle and kilmuckridge, it’s really well situated to enjoy the best beaches in Ireland! It really is a hidden gem and is fantastic value to anybody who wants to spend any time exploring the best the area has to offer. Thanks again to Edel for such great accommodation, we’ll be staying again for sure!
