    Quiet, welcoming home with Fiona our lovely, hospitable hostess. Toured the Historic Wicklow Gail (recommended), traveled 1/2 hr to walk the Glen da Lough area, bonus: found God’s Cottage ( small shop with quiet prayer room) Beautiful area!

    Our host is an excellent cook. The pastries, marmalade and food were fresh, delicious and well prepared. I would definitely stay here again when in the Wicklow area. In fact, I might come back again just for the food.

I have been welcoming guests to my bed and breakfast for 35 years and continue to enjoy meeting all my guests and ensuring that their experience here is a truly memorable one.
In my limited spare time I enjoy tennis, ballroom dancing and interior design. I have travelled extensively so am well versed in the life styles/tastes of many other nationalities.
Wicklow has the benefits of being on the coast but also a great mountain range offering many walking routes, cultural sites and really impressive scenery. All this and still only 1 hour from the airport and car ferries.
