Our Home For Exchange

Description of the home we are offering for exchange

Large detached, comfortable home with stunning views of the Wexford countryside. South-facing large gardens sloping down from the huge back window. We love to enjoy the views either from the comfort of the sitting room on a cold day or while sitting outside on a summer morning, listening to the birds chattering. This part of Wexford has fantastic walks - mountain, forest, coastal - all around. Directly across from our house is a choice of woodland and mountain trails for you to enjoy. The bustling town of Gorey is just 11km away, and in the opposite direction is the pretty village of Tinahely in Wicklow, which also has a large variety of excellent walks (including the famous Wicklow Way). A selection of sandy beautiful beaches are just 20 minutes from our home.

Neighbourhood

Description of our neighbourhood and surrounding area

Our home is located in a very scenic part of Wexford. We are nestled near the base of Annagh Hill and Croghan Mountain, which both provide plenty of wonderful walking trails. This is a very peaceful, rural area and the nearest shop is 6km away. There is a lovely, welcoming pub around the corner from us, the Gap Pub. Very friendly owners who love to meet new people. Gorey is our nearest 'big' town and it is a thriving market town, with a broad main street, lots of good coffee shops and a very nice atmosphere. There is a new cinema, a new library, a theatre and plenty shops. Several sandy beaches are within 10 minutes of Gorey. Tinahely, in the other direction, is a village with a strong arts scene with many beautiful walking trails to explore. If you would like to visit Dublin, it is approximately 1 hour and 20 minutes away - or you could take the bus or train from Gorey and enjoy having someone else doing the driving! The train journey runs along a lot of beautiful coastline.

Our Preferences

Our home exchange - here are our Preferences and House Rules

Our home is in a beautiful part of Wexford which is a protected scenic area. It is close to towns and villages but is also a peaceful rural location. We have a small number of hens who will supply you with fresh eggs every day! We also have two quiet dogs and two friendly cats. However, we realise that pet care may not suit people so we can arrange for alternative care while the exchange is taking place. We have a polytunnel with fruit/salads/herbs and these would need to be watered now and then. Help yourself to whatever is ready to eat! We would look after someone else's home even better than our own and we are all very respectful of the property of others.
