About this property

Fethard-on-Sea 1.4 miles. Enjoying a superb location close to the beach, Wheatfield Lodge is a compact but welcoming studio which is perfect for a couple looking for a romantic retreat. Within a short walk of the beach and the village amenities of Fethard-on-Sea, the studio is the ideal base for exploring the captivating beauty of the surrounding area. Step into the self-contained entrance into an inviting open-plan space which comes complete with an attractive sitting area in front of the TV, so after a day at the beach this is a great spot for kicking back and chilling out together. The kitchen is basic but does what it says on the tin, so you’ll be able to prepare meals for your loved one while they take a seat at the dining table which is ready and set up for intimate meals for two. Outside, if the Wexford sun is shining, spend time in the good-sized lawned garden and patio area, a wonderful space for enjoying time together alfresco. You’ll want to wash away the sand from your hair, so step into the stylish shower room before sinking into the sumptuous double bed, just made for recharging your batteries ready for another day of activities. In the morning, after a refreshing coffee in the garden, you’ll be raring to go and discover the wonders of Wexford. Take a stroll to the beaches at Baginbun and Carnivan Bay, both within a mile of the lodge, or walk into town where you will find a quaint fishing village complete with delightful shops and traditional pubs. Hook Peninsula is popular with visitors thanks to its lighthouse and collection of fantastic beaches, where you can try your hand at a range of watersports such as surfing, kayaking, snorkelling and angling. The region is steeped in history with sites such as Tintern Abbey, Dunbrody and Graiguenamanagh Abbey and Duncannon Fort military and maritime museum, ideal for finding out more about the region’s fascinating past. Jump in the car and head to Waterford in the west or Wexford in the east; both offer plenty to see and do for a day out and are a great introduction to the wonders of this stunning county. Wheatfield Lodge is an inviting holiday home which offers guests an attractive romantic bolthole.

The village of Abbey is situated 7 miles west of Portumna and 11 miles from Loughrea, south east of Galway city on the northern shore of Lough Rea. County Galway’s winner, for three years running, of Ireland’s Tidy Towns competition, the village of Abbey offers two pubs and a supermarket, and a monastery dating back to the 11th Century, from which the village takes its name. Portumna is nearby, offering good fishing and watersports, while the medieval town of Loughrea is host to several shops and pubs, two 4-star hotels, an 18 hole golf course and a lake, renowned for its fishing. Gort, is a medium sized market town on the Galway-to-Ennis Road, situated in a gap between the Slieve Aughty Mountains and the Burren to the south. There is a strong tradition of Irish music in the locality and many pubs stage sessions at night. With the cosmopolitan delights of Galway city and the popular beach at Salthill also within driving distance, this is an ideal touring base.

Counter top oven with 2 ring hob, microwave, fridge, tv, hot water, everything you need to self cater. Plenty of plug sockets. Large bathroom. I found the bed very comfy and had good nights sleep. Highly recommend.
