    Cute cottage, but very small. Bedrooms were small, so cramped when you get your luggage in there. We had been traveling Ireland from the U.S. and other places we stayed had some basic amenities like coffee, tea, basic spices for cooking. this place had nothing like that. It is stated to bring all you need when we read the description, so take note, anything you think you may need, bring with you. Since we were traveling around we weren't going to haul a lot of basics with us. All the Air B&Bs we used had the basics so we assumed VRBO properties would. Very handy to Wicklow and my Nephews enjoyed the beach at the property.

    .the back yard could do with doing up as the sun shines in the evening and the area of concrete is bad. A bbq would be nice a gas one you could sell the gas .. we would have no problem in buying gas for it … the kitchen could do with more plates a bread bin cutlery the clothes horse was broken .. a washing line would be better as we did a wash in the wash room but the clothes horse was rusty and broken so we had to use the dryer in wash room

    Would have been good if the cottage had internet and possibly a washing machine they do have one on site but it's €5 a wash and the machine is quite small. Hosts were also very nice. Would I stay again maybe definitely if they installed Internet access..
