About this property
Traditional Irish Cottage located in outstanding scenery
This beautiful listed Irish cottage is at least 120 years old. The L-shaped dwelling consists of the old thatch and the new part. Very suitable for a family with children or two couples that prefer their own privacy with the central kitchen as the warm centre of the house.
The wrap-around garden is very secluded and the front garden is completely fenced off. The house stands on a 2 acre private plot.
There is parking space for 2 cars.
The Nire is a lovely, scenic location, within the Comeragh Mountains.
There are ample possibilities for fishing, horseriding, walking, scenic drives and playing golf.
There are lovely old villages and towns, i.e Waterford, Kilkenny, Cahir, Clonmel, Dungarvan, Lismore, within a 1hour reach, to visit and to explore.

About the host
Hosted by Els Leen

We are a Dutch family of 5. Tony works for KLM (Royal Dutch Airlines) and I work as a primary school teacher. We love to go to Ireland during our holidays to relax and to enjoy the house and the scenery.
We therefore like to offer others the opportunity to share and love our house and to experience the beauty of the Nire!

Why they chose this property
In 1994 we visited the Nire Valley for the first time and we instantly fell in love with this part of Ireland. The cottage came for sale and 6 months later we were the proud owners of this beautiful gem.
Over the years , we have been renovating and upgrading the house to modern standards without losing any of its charms.
We like others to experience the magic of our "thatch"!
