  • "The bathroom needs work and updating, especially the shower that suffers from low pressure."

    The location is great and the owner was very friendly and helpful.

  • "The accomodation were perfect for a couple, it had everything required (including the emergency light when a short power cut occured) & everything worked fine."

    The one time we did have an issue Liam, the landlord was perfect in sorting it out & didn't seem at all concerned he took 2 hours. Ideally situated in a very friendly & very well appointed village. We intend to recommend this accomodation to every one we know travelling to Eire.

  • "Disgusting property."

    We had to force ourselves to stay for four days. Everything about its not good dinghy and smelling of mould. I'm surprised Sykes are letting this property. Not good for your image. It is not worth a quarter of the price charged.

  • "Owner Liam and son were very helpful."

    The bed was quite big and comfortable. I am not precious about decor so my issues with the accommodation stem from random furniture and rolled up carpets in corners of the rooms, the advertised feature of the walled/enclosed garden which was a concrete pen with a couple of small planters in it and paying almost 17% booking fee which on top of GBP 219 for the 2 nights made it exorbitant. I agree with the host that the price of electricity and fuel has gone mad, but having to put coins in a meter was odd.

    I had rolled up brand new carpets in the accommodation because my guests had a pet and I had replace the previous rugs as they had been destroyed by the previous guests with pets . The price my seem a bit high but I don't receive the amount that the the guest pays . Patio we have to keep every thing during bad weather . other wise I will have to replace them on a regular basis . My I should ban pets altogether and leave my brand new rugs on the floor .

    We enjoyed our stay very much, a cosy, old style retreat, everything in walking distance, Liam, the owner, very friendly and helpful, lovely beaches nearby

  • "Found the accommodation cosy, clean and comfortable."

    Yes, it may be a bit dark inside during the day but it is a converted barn so has small deep-set windows and that keeps it cool when very warm outdoors. Liam, the owner, is very hospitable and gave lots of info re the nearby village and surrounding area for sight-seeing. The dog was content and had her own enclosed patio area to soak up the sun. A relaxing and enjoyable break.

  • "I have already complained to Sykes and the owners ."

    I spent less than 72 hrs in the premises . It was filthy . I sent photographic evidence to Sykes . I’m expecting some redress . In these days of Covid I would have expected more diligent hygiene not less . The reason I stayed so long was I was waiting to see if Sykes could move me to another accommodation .Worst place ever & owner totally dismissive

The property

Nestled in the centre of the fishing village of Fethard-On-Sea in County Wexford is The Stable, a peaceful couple's retreat for those wanting to escape to the glorious coast of County Wexford, with a wealth of picturesque beaches and attractions to enjoy along the nearby Hook Peninsula.

This welcoming property is part of an 18th century stone farm building, which has been lovingly converted to provide a fantastic holiday home for two, with many of its original features still in tact, providing the property with lots of character and charm.

The Stable offers an open-plan living space with a compact but well-equipped kitchen, a dining table you can enjoy romantic meals together at, and an inviting living space, where you can relax on the sofa with a glass of wine and a good book, or movie on the FreeSat TV.

The shower room allows you to clean up after a day at the beach and feel refreshed, before making your way up to the mezzanine double bedroom to catch up on rest.

Enjoy your peaceful surroundings with a morning coffee in the enclosed patio garden, while the shared courtyard and barbecue are great for alfresco dinners in the summer sunshine.

The Stable is a quaint couple's retreat by the sea in County Wexford.

Hook Cottages

Just a short distance from the stunning Hook Peninsula in the fishing village of Fethard-On-Sea in southwest County Wexford are Hook Cottages, three character properties that form part of an 18th century, traditional stone farmhouse. Set around a courtyard with the owner's home, these delightful properties retain some original features, like old beams and stonework, as well as having their own enclosed gardens and shared use of a courtyard and barbecue. Fethard-on-Sea village centre is within walking distance and offers a host of amenities, pubs and restaurants, while the Hook Peninsula boasts a wealth of sandy beaches, an ancient lighthouse and watersport activities like diving, snorkelling and shore angling. There are many historical buildings within easy reach that are worth visiting, including Tintern Abbey with its walled garden, Dunbrody and Graiguenamanagh Medieval abbeys, while Duncannon houses a military and maritime museum. Walk the Wexford Coastal Path for picturesque coastal scenery; venture east towards Wexford to visit its 12th century abbey, magnificent opera house and 35-acre Irish National Heritage Park, while west brings you to Waterford, Ireland's oldest city, home to a Medieval museum, nature park and a 16th century castle set on a private island along the River Suir, surrounded by 310 acres of land. New Ross, which sits on the Wexford/Kilkenny border, is home to John F Kennedy Arboretum, with a collection of 4,500 trees from all over the world, along with a lake and idyllic hilltop views, the 12th century Dunbrody Abbey and its fantastic hedge maze, and the the Dunbrody Famine Ship.

Fethard-on-Sea is a village nestling to the east of the Hook Peninsula, in the south-west of lovely County Wexford. Fethard-on-Sea has a colourful history, including the lifeboat tragedy of 1914, and the Fethard-on-Sea Boycott, which has been immortalised in print and on film. Now a quiet fishing and holiday village, Fethard makes a great base to enjoy sandy beaches, shops and pubs. The Hook Peninsula continues to attract visitors due to the ancient lighthouse and a multitude of beaches. There is a beach a day for a fortnight on the Peninsula, plus there are a variety of watersports, such as diving, snorkelling and shore angling, along with painting and birdwatching. There are many interesting historical sites to visit, such as Tintern Abbey with its walled garden, guided tour and forest walk and medieval abbeys in Dunbrody and Graiguenamanagh, plus the star shaped Elizabethan Fort at Duncannon houses a military and maritime museum, and The Cockleshell Art Gallery. Head up to New Ross and visit the JFK Arboretum or the Dunbrody Famine Ship, or travel over to Waterford in the west or Wexford in the east to take in all they have to offer, from the Wexford Opera House, Johnstown Castle and The Heritage Park to Waterford Castle and Waterford Crystal.
