This traditional cottage is nestled within a tranquil part of Carne, County Wexford and has an olde worlde interior, which is a welcome sight after blustery days on the shore. Spend quality time with your loved ones sunbathing and building sandcastles on Carne Beach (0.5 miles) or the sands of Curracloe or Rosslare, both within 20 miles of the house. Within 11 miles of the home are two 18-hole golf courses for the keen golfers of the group, while the avid hikers may like to trek the 4-mile route from Carne Beach to Churchtown, taking in the panoramic views along the coastal path. Within 1 mile, you'll find a pub and a restaurant, both serving delicious eats for topping up hungry tummies. With fabulous routes and golden beaches leading from the property, there is something here for everyone.

This quaint four-bedroom cottage has a spacious layout with comfort considered at every turn. Enter the lounge/diner to cosy up in front of the fire or catch up with a TV series. The sunroom is a welcome addition to the home, especially on balmy days when you can unwind with views of the garden. The kitchen is well equipped with an oven/hob, fridge, microwave and dishwasher. Store coats and scarves in the utility room which also boasts a washing machine, dryer and small freezer. Continuing on the ground floor is the sizeable bathroom with a bathtub, shower and WC, and a bedroom containing a small double bed. Climb the stairs to discover three cosy bedrooms – there are two bedrooms with two single beds each and one double with an en-suite bath, shower and WC.

Heading outside, there is a large lawned garden with garden furniture and a paved patio area. Perfect for breakfasts, lunches and dinners in the sunshine.

Ballask cottage is lovely and homely. We really enjoyed having the open fire and offers an authentic cottage feel.

This has been our second stay in the cottage. It was off - season so very quiet but we loved having all the family together in isolation and loved been back at the property which is situated in the most perfect location if you wish to explore the wider region. We always leave Ballask cottage with new loving memories.
