Breathtaking cliff top farmhouse with deserted beach

An unashamedly romantic secluded period farmhouse, “Park” has sea views from every room (from every bed if you want to be exact) and is set in a magical unspoiled coastal vista with an unrepeatable “get away from it all” atmosphere.”
A private holiday home and bolt-hole for the same family for more than fifty years, there is a calmness and a healing property that makes it perfect for honeymooners (not necessarily their first) and also idyllic for young children who might find they can explore the abundant natural beauty of the farmland and coastline with a nowadays unusual freedom.
The informal seaside style gardens feature ancient stone walls and extensive grassed areas and suggest the urgent need for a little more relaxation before indulging in anything as vigorous as a walk on the beach let alone a swim. There is a sheltered cove on the property and also rock pools and an amazing rock archway and seating with sea views.
The vacation home is heated and features a kitchen and space to spread out with 4 bedrooms and a dining area. Guests can expect to find free WiFi and a TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a coffee maker.

Great Relaxing Stay at Park

Not often you get to stay in a place that evokes life many years ago but has the comforts of today's travel Great loccation on the irish Sea, away from the world, but very connected and easy to get to very scenic and intersting places in Ireland. The property owner, handyman were very easy to reach and helpful for the very few questions we had. The surrounding towns, countryside, and national parks were easy to get to and lovely. Highly recommend.

Magical, traditional Irish cottage!

I can’t imagine finding a more iconic, historic cottage on its own private piece of paradise anywhere else in Ireland! If you love character, authenticity, the sea, & a peaceful, private setting, this is the place for you!Our adult children loved it as well & we were able to take the DART (the easiest way!) into Dublin a couple times during our week’s stay to enjoy city life & see the sights. Other days/nights were spent making a couple dinners, playing euchre or cribbage by the fire, laughing & being silly together, reading or walking the beach…. “Park” is a once-in-a-lifetime” place to experience a more quiet side of Ireland’s incredible charm & Colin & Fleur were very kind, accommodating & always available to us!

As a family of six adults with ages ranging from 24 to 82 we had a wonderful time at Park. The cottage was perfect for a get away from it all holiday especially once you got used to the low door frames! Quiet, remote, spacious and well equipped with comfortable beds.As we were blessed with great weather we were also able to make full use of the beautiful grounds and the almost private beach. We spent hours just watching the colours change, the seals and the sea birds in the cove and the hares running around the garden.Colin and Fleur made everything easy and checked in to make sure we were OK.Only mark lost was for the fact that the property description mentions a hot tub when there was not one (that we could find anyway!).Despite that minor issue would highly recommend this property if you are looking for a quiet, relaxing break.

Beautiful cottage perfect location

This is a stunning old cottage with beautiful gardens. The location is remote but close to arklow and the busy town of Gorey We spent three weeks here and all the grand children loved it with private access to a stunning beach and we rarely saw anyone else on it and we spotted the sea lion most days The house is very well equipped with everything you would need without having to leave for anything except provisions It is spacious and comfortable in fact the pictures don’t do it justice. The owners were prompt and helpful in responding to our queries We all loved it and hope to return in the future Happy memories!!

A lovely home in a lovely place

We spent a really lovely week at the beginning of July in this lovely home. We had lovely weather and the many different areas of the garden allowed teenagers, parents and youngsters to enjoy themselves together or apart. The house is comfortable and the proximity -by a winding grassy path - to a stony beach is magic. Morning swims and evening dips..... We saw one family and two foxes on the beach in the space of a week. And then star gazing and picnics.. all without leaving the house.

Idyllic Old World Romance with Modern Comforts

From the moment you arrive, you feel a sense of calm and yet enthusiasm for all Park has to offer. The cottage was all we had hoped it would be, and more! The beach is spectacular and private. We were surprised with how often we could enjoy the water. The nature and wildlife did disappoint. Exploring the surrounding area was a joy. The very thoughtful garden design did not feature in the description and was a pleasant surprise. Our 2 weeks at Park will go down as a travel highlight.

Going back in time

If you want to experience the spirit of ancient Ireland, and really touch the rich history of the Irish, there is no better place to stay than at this 400 year old, rustic, homey, and completely secluded cottage on the Irish sea. We have stayed several times and we loved it just as much this time as we did the first time. Colin and Fleur are the perfect property managers, just a phone call away if you need anything. If you want to stay in the Hilton and kiss the Blarney stone, that's great. But if you want a real, authentic taste of old Ireland, the people and the emerald sod, then this cottage is the place for you!

Get away from the crowd & access east Ireland

After spending several days in Dublin, we were anxious to leave the bustle behind and see the Irish countryside. Colin's place, Park, is the ideal way to get away from it all, yet access the best eastern Ireland has to offer (Powerscourt, Glendalough, Avoca weavers, Wicklow Town and more). This farmhouse is outfitted with all the necessary modern conveniences, yet retains an old world charm, and best of all, privacy. Down a country lane and through three gates, you won't have any unwanted visitors passing by, and a whole beach essentially to yourself. If your family or friends seek quietude, this is the place!

Family holiday

We have been home now for little over a week. I can still hear the waves of the Irish sea, smell the sea air, and picture in my mind the breathtaking views. All the reviews are right on point. Colin, Fleur, Donald, and Jolita were very attentive to our needs and only a phone call or email away. The cold weather and almost daily rain did not deter our family from getting together and create unforgettable memories to be cherished for a lifetime. We enjoyed multiple daily walks on the almost deserted beach and frigid dips in the Irish Sea. In the evening after dinner, we sat by the fireplace and reminisced about our day. And when it was time for bed we could not wait to snuggle under the beautiful bed linen and blankets, and fall asleep to the sound of the waves…priceless Thank you Colin and Fleur for sharing Park with us. We will never forget the time we spent there.

Stunning Private Getaway

History and charm abound in this farmhouse from the early 1600s. While containing the necessities of modern living, the joys of the property are the historic details. The house contained a library of Irish authors and travels which were handy to have. Our nephew really appreciated the available toys and kids books. The grounds were spectacular! Beautiful gardens were all around the house. The barn ruins were a delightful historic element. However, it was the view of the Irish Sea and beach access that really solidified this as an exciting location. The walk down to the beach was a little difficult for the older family members but well worth it. Be sure to follow the suggested landmarks to get to the property. The last left turn (unfinished gate) might be better described as a sharp left before the concrete block posts. Our seven-person extended family had a wonderful time at this property as a home base for our Ireland adventure.

A Wonderful Retreat!

My sister found this cottage online two years ago when looking for possible places for us to stay during our sibling excursion to Ireland. “This is it!” she said......and it was! Colin’s detailed information and directions leading us to this beautiful little cottage by the sea were very helpful. It immediately felt like home, with its quaint decor and cozy living areas. The newly remodeled kitchen had everything we needed to prepare meals. It was an easy trip into Arklow for shopping and supplies. From the windows and gardens, the private beach and sea were visible, and wildlife (hares, foxes, and pheasants) could be seen, especially at dusk. Colin and the local contacts were readily available to answer any questions. The cottage was very clean and the property well maintained. This is a place to relax and experience the beautiful Irish coastline. We will never forget our stay and hope to return again sometime. The McDaniels

Amazing and relaxing retreat

We chose Fleur’s and Colin’s holiday home earlier this year, as my sister had wished for a visit to ireland as a gift for her 50th birthday. The pictures and reviews made the property our favorite and so we booked our stay in mid September. And what can we say. This place is really amazing and charmed us the moment we arrived, even it wasn’t the best weather on our first day. But soon the rain stopped. And with this our discovery of this amazing property really started. No disturbing noises, it’s like a calm, own world. The historic house with its modern equipment, beautiful garden, the amazing view over the sea, the trees around the house and property just help to relax and make it a perfect holiday retreat. I can only advise any visitor to take a walk on the premise at sunset or sundown time. Also great is the beach below the property. A special Thank You to Fleur: Your mail with the perfect instructions on how to get to the place, your welcome call on the first day and the call the day before we left again were great and show that you care for your guests. I hope to get a chance to visit this place again.

Isolated cliff top cottage

This amazing cottage is to be found in a very isolated spot the last km over a rough track (takes approx 15-20mins ), with three gates to open and shut, but worth it once you get there. Remember this cottage is 17th century, it has central heating, easily controlled, electric blankets on comfortable clean beds, modern kitchen facilities (oven, hob, dishwasher, microwave, fridge washing machine) and bathrooms making it cosy warm and homley but is most definatley an old cottage with tlied floors, creaky stairs, low ceilings and spiders in the rafters which add to the inherant charm of this beautifully preserved cottage. You can lie in bed watching and listening to the sea just yards away, reached by a specially cut pathway in the cliff leading to your own personal beach, great for picking up shells and stones. The grounds are laid out with sheltered lawns, sit outside the front of the cottage with glass of tea/wine and enjoy the sun coming up or going down. Although isolated the large town of Arklow is about 15-20 minutes away with a huge modern Tesco which had all the supplies needed (including bottled water and cheap kettle, as we are not used to hard water where we come from, also had to make sure we bought the english water as bottled irish water was just has hard, no scottish available!) Arklow also has a shopping centre with a 9 screen cinema, great has the new Harry Potter was realeased the week of our holiday! Eddie Rockets American Diner in the shopping centre was a great hit with all three generations in our party! The isolated spot made it easy to lie around reading and relaxing, but we did some sightseeing, the main roads in Ireland are amazing, the N11 reachable within 15-20 mins All tourist sites are so easy to find, we didnt have a proper map but if you just followed the signs onto the motorway and off again onto the main N roads. We reached everything with no problems visiting Avoca with its working mill shop and fabulous cafe, sampling Guinness in the local pub. We also headed to Glendalough,a magical anceint monastic site, which also has woolen mills nearby with outlet shops. We had a splendid day in Dublin as we had to drop some of our party at the airport (1.5 hours journey) Again the roads were great , we took a city bus tour and chose to visit the historic Kilamainham Jail, and shopping centre surrounding O'Connel St. We also visited the Japanese Gardens and National Stud by Kildare.You must have a car to holiday here.

On approaching the property, we were hugely impressed by the spectacular views from the hilltop – remarkable! This house sits on a lovely, very well-maintained large garden full of its own personality. Access to the private beach at the end of the garden is a path which is also well looked after and easy to descend and climb. Incredible view again of the Irish Sea from the house and garden. The house itself is Infused with all the charm and character of a delightful 17th Century farmhouse. The kitchen itself is fully equipped and has all the modern appliances required.

A hidden gem so good I hate to share it.

We stayed at this property in July for a week. Probably one of the best weeks I’ve ever had in Ireland although the weather helped greatly. The location is great. Only an hour or so from Dublin but it feels like you are far away. The house and gardens are as described. The gardens are really beautiful and very well manicured. The farmhouse is everything you would expect from a 17th century building. The decor is very much in keeping with the style. That said it makes it all the better. Don’t be worried however there are all mod cons available. My two girls 7 & 10 were very comfortable, able to watch TV when tired from the sun/ beaches or garden playing on the swings. Saving the best for last is the views. Phenomenal. The house and gardens are situated on a hill/cliff surrounded by farmland and over looking the sea and a beautiful large private beach/cove. We sat out every evening looking out at the sea. No tv needed! My kids had a ball. The private beach with the walkway down was great and there is also a fantastic beach 2 mins away ( Clogga beach). The kids loved it. For dinner or shopping there are loads of option in Arklow and Gorey which is just down the road. Finally the hosts were excellent. Friendly, fast and clear communication and were able to help us with anything we needed.

Irish interlude

Our family, four adults and three children under ten, stayed here for one week this past September. Everything was as described in the VRBO site. The location was about an hour south of Dublin by car as well as by train. Locally the house is comfortably removed but not remote. It sits on a gentle cliff overlooking the Irish Sea. The property is extensive including the groomed lawn area. The beach, if not formally private, may as well be so. It spans a quarter mile with near one hundred feet depth. We utilized it way more than we expected. The house was very comfortable living/cooking/eating-wise and quiet as could be, other than soft wave sounds, at all times. Three bedrooms on the second floor one on the main. Both baths are across the hall from each other on the main adjacent to the bedroom. We seven shared easily. The kitchen accommodated three cooks and the dining room table expands to seat seven. Privacy and safety was never an issue. We were comfortable on and off the property including the beach. Arklow is nearby for groceries, fuel, train station and whatever. Gorey to the south is the more picturesque with shops, pubs and a great fruit seller as you approach Gorey from the north. We visited Trim Castle directly from the airport then focused on locations in the southeast. Everywhere we visited, including daily pub lunches, we were received with pleasantries and conversation. Not a bad word a say about any encounters in Ireland. However Aer Lingus needs a lot more legroom! Colin, our host, stayed in touch while we were there and was eager to insure our comfort and satisfaction. Enjoy.
