Summary: All good, nice property in the Wexford countryside. We were there only for two nights so did not get to fully appreciate the garden and surroundings as we were seeing relatives in the areas. Great communications with Kate the owner. Only slight issue was that on arrival on a very cold day, the heating had not been put on - and we recognise that it was an oversight. By the morning, the house was warm and comfortable.
