An inviting, white-washed retreat, set on the fringes of the village of Saltmills on the Hook Peninsula, this comfortable bolthole captures magnificent views across a tidal estuary. Sleeping four guests, the two-bedroom cottage features a generous garden for outside relaxation and a wood burner for the colder months. Saltmills, which has a pub, is 14.5 miles from the ancient city of Waterford, crossing the River Barrow by ferry. Here, you will discover a myriad of colourful shops, eateries, museums and historic buildings. Head out on foot from the cottage and walk less than 1 mile to the impressive Cistercian monastery of Tintern Abbey. Here, you can also see the exquisite Colclough Walled Garden. Venture 4.5 miles to beautiful Baginbun Beach.
