Jul 20, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, location, listing accuracy We spent two nights in this cosy little apartment and enjoyed the beautiful surrounding countryside. There‘s a two burner induction hob for preparing simple meals. We would return for a short stay in Wicklow county - many thanks, Martin! ##### Kerstin D. Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2025
