An inviting, two-storey cottage in County Carlow, this semi-detached property is perfect for a family or couples. Sleeping four guests, the two-bedroom hideaway has a large garden and captures undulating green views. Situated in a tranquil position in Ballon, which has a small selection of pubs and shops, it is 11.5 miles from the vibrant town of Carlow, with its museums and galleries and a wider array of eateries and retail outlets. Garden-lovers should venture 3.5 miles to wander around the beautiful, 40-acre Altamont Gardens, with its arboretum, bog garden and ice age glen. Those with an interest in history will enjoy the ruins of Ballyloughan Castle, 10 miles away, and Ballymoon Castle, 8 miles away.

Step inside to find welcoming, light-filled accommodation with colourful touches in its furniture and furnishings. Settle on the sumptuous seating in the lounge to make plans for the following day; watch TV or listen to music in here too. Amble through to the kitchen/diner to cater for your party and to dine together. All the equipment and accessories you need are here, together with a table to pull a chair up to. There is also a utility room and a separate WC downstairs. Climb the stairs up to the first floor to find a double bedroom and a twin, both with cottage-style decor. The double bedroom has an en-suite shower room and there is also a family bathroom on the first floor.

Take your children out into the partly enclosed garden to race about in the fresh air. Relax out here yourselves on sunny days and soak up the serenity of the setting.
