The beach at Hook Head was first class, even had a nice little coffee and ice cream cafe by the car park. Itâs definitely on the short list for a return visit

The house was tidy and welcoming and we were greeted with lovely apple cake milk and fresh breads, initially the owner was lovely and welcoming , new windows have been put in and a new sofa although we did spy damp on the bedroom curtains and the walls behind the beds maybe thatâs to be expected with an old farmhouse, the mattresses weâre adequate comfort but one of the rooms is at a slant so the bed is tilted which is a slightly uncomfortable way to sleep but again maybe a feature of an old farm house,it was quirky! that being said we had a great base for exploring beautiful Wexford. And the land is amazing especially the garden Being a dog friendly house we had our pet with us who loved the freedom, the kids loved the large garden and exploring. Even though we had this positive experience there was a few issues after we left. we arrived home to texts about dirty tea towels (which we used for kids particularly toddler general spills in the kitchen ect and cleaning ect as there was no kitchen roll or other kitchen cleaning cloths in the property, we placed them all in the bath for the cleaners to get in one place as there was no washing power available and we couldnât get the washing machine to work , we thought we had done the right thing but this apparently was a horrendous thing to do we were left a bit shocked. We apologised and sent the owner new tea clothes in the post. We were not aware that we were not allowed to actually use them to clean up. Check out is very early at 10am which is hard to get out if you have young kids or babies and just as we were leaving my autistic daughter accidentally dropped her diluted juice beside her bed, I stripped it as some splashed on the side of the bed sheet and left it for the cleaners, if we had of had more time I would have washed it, apparently this was a horrendous thing to do. Nowhere were we aware that we had to launder sheets dish clothes ect we assumed the cleaners would deep clean as part of the checkout process even though we spent a Considerable amount of time cleaning and tidying before we left and apart from some dirty dish clothes we left the house as we found it as we are a respectful family and would never leave a mess. Our advice is if you have special needs children or toddlers or are a family I wouldnât recommend the house as the owners told us after we left that kids shouldnât be allowed a drink in their rooms or that we shouldnât use dish clothes to clean up spills or use more than one, we assumed they were out there to use. ect they are very particular about these few details and with kids and a special needs child we were there to relax and didnât think we needed to panic over some spills ect maybe the dish cloths were a bit dirty after a week but it seemed to be a bigger issue than it needed to be.

Only a few minutes walk to a wonderful swimming beach. The house is at the end of a country lane with views of fields and sky. We loved the seclusion, yet we could walk into Fethard on Sea in 10 minutes. Maria was very welcoming and we greatly appreciated her homemade apple cake and brown bread! Check-in and out was smooth and Maria was very accommodating to us. Overall would highly recommend.
