About this property

Tinahely 2.4 miles. Ballybeg Pod 10 is a quaint woodland retreat nestled within the enchanting 150-acre grounds of Ballybeg, County Wicklow. Handcrafted from locally sourced, sustainable materials, this pod combines rustic charm with modern comfort, offering sweeping views of Croghan Valley and the majestic Wicklow Hills. Designed for small families or friends, it provides a unique escape with access to a shared Canadian hot tub, plus an exclusive on-site bar and restaurant for a truly memorable stay. Arrive via the sweeping driveway and enjoy convenient off-road parking, making it easy to unpack and settle into your retreat without a fuss. Step inside this single-storey sanctuary to find a centrally heated family room, simply furnished with high-quality bedding and tasteful touches of Irish poetry and art that lend a cultural richness to the space. The pod's private patio invites you to fully embrace the surrounding natural beauty, whether you’re savouring a morning coffee amid birdsong or stargazing in the tranquil evening as the outdoor lights create a soft glow. Framed by 300-year-old chestnut, birch, and oak trees, the views through the woodland create a peaceful backdrop for unforgettable moments outdoors. A stroll through the manicured estate grounds reveals captivating landscapes, including winding pathways, a serene walled garden rich with seasonal blooms, and a picturesque stone courtyard with a charming central fountain. You’ll find seating areas throughout, perfect for picnics, reading spots, or simply taking in the panorama of Croghan Valley and the rolling Wicklow Hills. For a truly relaxing experience, the shared Canadian hot tub offers a serene setting to unwind after a day of exploration. Since the hot tub is popular, request access in advance to ensure you can savour this added delight. On-site dining options, including a private restaurant and a charming shebeen-style bar, offer a convenient way to enjoy special meals or casual gatherings right on the grounds. Both are available by prior arrangement and subject to your group size. For guests who prefer to cook, a shared, fully-equipped kitchen is nearby, stocked with continental breakfast items each morning for a hassle-free start to the day. When it’s time to refresh, enjoy the shared shower room close to the pod, or embrace the allure of outdoor living with a hot-water outdoor shower, perfect for an invigorating morning rinse surrounded by nature.
