About this property
Nestled at the centre of Wexford, County Wexford, rests this charming, one bedroom holiday home, 83 Upper John Street. With terrific positioning to an array of nearby shops, pubs and restaurants, and a wealth of nifty, on-site amenities, this tasteful property is perfect for a small family seeking a peaceful, self-catered stay in the southeast of Ireland. Inside your new home-away-from-home you will find a number of well-thought out living spaces, including a fully-fitted kitchen/diner where delicious feasts can be prepared to be savoured around the dining table, and a sitting room complete with plush furniture and a sleek, wall-mounted Smart TV. As the evenings grow darker, indulge yourself in a long, rejuvenating shower before retreating to a double bedroom that lies waiting to whisk you off to a night's refreshing slumber. In the morning, enjoy a hot, warming cup of coffee on the rear patio before venturing out to explore your local area, where you will find Simon Lambert & Sons gastropub, Oyster Lane Restaurant, Wexford Harbour and Wexford Golf Club, for those looking to improve their short game. Rossmore is a short drive south along the coast, home to the tranquil grounds of Kirwans Garden and the popular hiking spot of Cliff Side - ideal for those craving a more active day out. Slightly further you can find the fishing village of Kilmore Quay, where visitors can spend time at the historic spot of St Patrick's Bridge, the scenic viewpoint of Memorial Garden, and the quaint setting of Kilmore Quay Harbour. Duncannon is a worthwhile destination for a day out, where you can roam the grounds of Duncannon Fort or feel the sand between your toes at Duncannon Beach. All of this and more await during a stay at 83 Upper John Street.
Wexford, a charming medieval town, is located on Ireland's scenic east coast and features winding, narrow alleyways that are framed by a vibrant quayside that is dotted with old houses. The town has a lovely opera theatre, a top-notch golf course, and St Helen's Bay Golf Course is nearby. Wexford Bay is a fantastic location for a cottage holiday; it has 20 miles of Blue Flag sandy beaches and is surrounded by sand dunes and nature walks. Why not spend the evening in one of the numerous bustling bars and restaurants in Wexford Quays or take a boat excursion to see the seals on the sandbanks? The entrance to Waterford Harbour is marked by the oldest operational lighthouse in Britain, Hook Lighthouse, which is located at the tip of the Hook Head Peninsula in County Wexford. Waterford itself has a lot to see and do, including fantastic watersport activities and the Waterford Crystal factory, and Dublin, the capital city, is close by and perfect for a day of sightseeing and shopping.

I cannot fault the location of the property with its proximity to Main street, shops and places to eat and walk the dog. I really felt at home there by the end of the week. Also, the cost of the place was spot on, working out to be under £50pp/night. A couple of points if I may, the parking situation was a bit of a bother as we were coming and going a fair bit, maybe offer a weekly permit at a cost instead? The car park next to Jim McGees was good and always had spaces but took only coins and meant loading up the car was a bit of a pain. The location was spot on for us but not for the dog or it seemed the other dogs in the area so I would warn people of the sleep disruption (it said no loud music after 10pm in the info book but wouldnât have mattered as half the dogs in the road and the pub closing meant we barely got any sleep anyway

In the middle of a lovely town. The property contains everything you could possibly need, within walking distance of anything you may wish to do. Itâs comfortable, cosy and thereâs a good support system, i.e. if something goes wrong - thereâs help. I do prefer a larger bed, (actually my wife does as Iâm a XXL guy), but we were fine.

It's small but very comfortable and is very well equipped with everything we needed during our stay.
