Hiking, walking and hang-gliding: Distance:The Wicklow Way. Traditionally the Wicklow Way is walked from north to south, beginning at Marlay Park in South Dublin and ending in Clonegal, Co. Carlow. The Wicklow Way can be completed on day trips, covering sections and can be a serious test of physical endurance'.
Picturesque Mount Leinster is the highest mountain in the province of Leinster, Ireland and is the highest of the Blackstairs Mountains at 796 metres (2,605 ft). The mountain is most often climbed from the Nine Stones, a landmark point at the foot of Mount Leinster, about 8 miles east of Borris.
Mount Leinster has been used in stages of the Tour of Ireland. Mt Leinster is a internationally renowned location as well as being a multi-directional site for both hang-gliding and para-gliding during the months of March to October.
Special day trips: (A) Powerscourt House And Gardens is one of Europe's great treasures & Ireland's most famous house & gardens. Gracing the Wicklow Mountains, Powerscourt, a heritage property with a surprising difference, is one of the most beautiful country estates in Ireland. (B) Altamont Garden, known as the most romantic garden in Ireland is an enchanting blend of formal an informal gardens located on a 100 acre estate. Whilst still little known, it ranks in the top ten of Irish gardens and is often referred to as 'the jewel in Ireland's gardening crown'. (C) County Wicklow is rightly known as the Garden of Ireland, such is its majestic beauty in so many forms. Famous for the incredible mountain ranges that are contained within such a small area, Wicklow has many other attractions that add to the desire to explore this place, none more so than the village of Avoca and the famous 'Meeting of the Waters'. Avoca Village was the location of the very popular BBC television series “Ballykissangel'.

In total our stay was very nice and relaxing. The house was spacious with a very nice view and options for walking. Bunclody and Mount Leinster is worth a visit.
We couldn’t have been more pleased. The home was everything we could have asked for. Close to the beautiful town of Bunclody and a great location for day trips. Highly recommend this home.
The propert was very clean and had lots of room for everyone there were 6 of us. Had to purchase toilet paper, paper towel, dishwashing pods, and cloths detergent, other then that everything else was there. The town is very nice and everyone is very friendly and helpful.
The house is great with plenty of room. The views were amazing. Location was great for getting to the highways and the town had great amenities. Which use it again.

A great home away from home
This house is even better than the pictures indicate. It was new and clean and had a great view. The area is a bit off the tourist track so it made it an even better Irish experience.
Joe was very helpful. He gave us some great tips re. the area and showed us everything we needed to know about the house.
I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this rental.

Hello Dave,
Many thanks for taking the time to write a review on our Holiday-Home near Bunclody, Co Wexford. We are glad that you enjoyed your stay in Ireland and thank you for choosing to stay with us at Mount Leinster View.
We very much appreciate your business.
I wish you and your family and friends all the best for the future.
Kind regards,
Paul Sharry.
Property was clean, spacious and very accommodating.
Area was fun to explore particularly Bunclody.
The 4* given above re correspondence with owner is just because I don't use a mobile phone for apps etc. I like instructions by e-mail complete with directions. Other older people may feel the same. Something which Vrbo should take note of perhaps.
Our group of 6 adults, with 2 singles and 2 couples found Paul’s Mount Leinster View house a perfect fit! There were ample bedrooms and bathrooms for all to have some privacy when needed, but the living room, kitchen and dining room area made for a perfect gathering spot to talk about the day and enjoy a beautiful view out the living room window.
There was ample parking and a nice outdoor area to enjoy the Irish summer and a fairly quiet lane to enjoy morning or evening walks. Bunclody had several grocery options, but we really liked what O’ Reilly’s SuperValu had to offer. River’s Edge and Sorrentos were are favorite dinner spots. Sugar and Spice had exceptional breakfast and lunch options.
We really enjoyed our stay and look forward to a return trip!

What an amazing property in a beautiful location, when we saw the property information we were thinking it was to good to be true but boy were we wrong the property is fantastic. The house was in the perfect location for us to visit family and friends in the area. The facilities are the house were great our children didn’t want to leave the house. There was plenty of leaflets for things to do in the area which sadly we didn’t get a time to really look at due to visiting family . The supermarkets were all easily accessible and within 10 mins from the house . You do need a car due to the house location . The house was very clean and tidy and Richard was on hand if we had any questions. The lovely little dog came to visit one evening which our son loved before we went home and my son loved watching the farmer plough the fields behind the house. We will certainly be back in the next few years . The views of Mount Leinster are amazing front the from garden. One thing to consider maybe is a gate on the driveway as when playing outside my young son kept running down the driveway and made me run once or twice but that was probably him being his cheeky self and me worrying if I couldn’t run fast enough. Thank you so very much Paul and richard

Excellent quiet place to escape
On arrival we were met by the very friendly Richard who gave us our keys and showed us around the house and also gave us some very useful advice on places to shop and eat and drink. This is a well equipped spacious property, which is well maintained and clean with plenty of space for two families and no shortage of bathrooms. Location is quiet and very rural with the lovely village of Bunclody nearby, where there are a few shops & restaurants. The views from the property are beautiful and it’s well worth a walk up Mount Leinster which can be seen from the house.

Tolles Haus, tolle Lage
Wir waren in den Osterferien mit 2 Erwachsenen und 3 Kindern (16,14 und 9) in dem Haus und haben den Aufenthalt sehr genossen.
Das Haus liegt so, dass Ausflüge in alle Richtungen möglich sind.
So war auch unser 2. Irland Urlaub ein Erlebnis.

Amazing place with most stunning views.
This house is amazing, with the most stunning views. Out in the country so a vehicle is a must.
The house itself, is spacious, clean and had everything you could want. Wooden floors throughout, but as another visitor said I agree it could do with some rugs purely to make a warmer feel and to possibly dull the noise down slightly especially on the stairs ( hence the 4 stars and not 5 but that’s personal opinion)
From the moment I booked on line Paul the owner ( who lives in Australia) was extremely helpful over e mail and couldn’t have done more for me with details of various recommendations locally.
When checking in Richard was lovely and again extremely helpful with local knowledge.
We had a problem with the TV whilst there and Richard popped straight round to see if he could sort it (he couldn’t but was through no fault of his own) because as you can see it’s quite an old system (New smart TV might be the way forward but then maybe I am being picky!) However the next day (Saturday) someone came out with Richard and it was sorted.
Gorgeous place which I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend to friends and family (in fact I already have)
Oh and if a little tan coloured dog turns up at your door he lives in the first house on the left as you enter the lane. His name is coco and he often trotted in the house via the patio door if open! He is adorable and his owners said he’s run down the lane all summer. They couldn’t stop apologising and were lovely. However we didn’t mind in the slightest and were happy with our little visits every now and again.
Great place, get booking, you won’t regret it.

Thank you Elaine for taking the time to write such a wonderful review about your stay at our Holiday Home. We are so pleased that you and your friends enjoyed your stay . We very much appreciate your business and hope that you will return one day soon again..
We have seriously considered rugs on a few occasions but the issue of hygiene arose.
We get a lot of wonderful families with smaller kids and it would be impossible to keep them clean and in a hygienic condition. The wood floors are easy to keep clean and any particles of dirt show up easy.
Again many thanks.

Stunning Views and Peaceful Surroundings
Home is very large and roomy! The views from the living room are stunning. Owner Paul and caretaker Caroline were extremely responsive to any questions or issues we had. Rooms are spacious and clean.
