The proximity to beaches, local amenities, and Wexford town is frequently highlighted, along with the helpfulness of the owner. Some guests noted areas for improvement, particularly in furnishings and cleanliness, but overall experiences were positive.
Most guests found the property clean and well-kept, though there were a few mentions of cleanliness issues such as dirty cups and outdoor furniture. These seem to be isolated incidents rather than a consistent problem.
The location is highly praised for its convenience, being centrally located in Curracloe village, close to shops, a hotel, and within a short drive to the beach and Wexford town.
The property is generally considered comfortable, with ample space and good facilities. However, several reviews suggest that the sitting room furniture, particularly the sofa, needs replacing, which affects the overall comfort score.
Facilities are well-regarded, with a spacious kitchen, large garden, and play equipment for children. Some guests noted that certain aspects, such as patio furniture and the back door, required attention, indicating room for improvement in maintenance.
There is no mention of gifts or special thoughtful touches provided by the host in the reviews, so it is not possible to assess this category.

Kirsten
The house is spacious but also cosy, the Christmas decorations and tree were such a lovely touch too! It's across the road from the hotel/pub and about a 4 minute drive to the gorgeous Curracloe beach. The owner is great at communicating & very helpful. We would definitely book again!

Quiet street and short stroll to pub/shop. 5 minute drive to excellent sandy dog friendly beach with coffee shop, changing facilities, surf school. House was cosy with everything you need to cook - warm and welcoming to come home to every evening. Beds were very comfortable. Lovely base to explore Wexford. Only 10mins to Wexford town with large supermarkets.

The house is very well appointed with all the usual amenities and the owner was most helpful with any inquiries we had, while totally respecting our privacy. There is a well stocked Centra shop within a few minutes walking distance, which we appreciated and Curracloe beach likewise. Wexford town is within easy driving distance.
