Q    How far to the nearest Beach?

A    Duncannon, 8 miles from Warren Farm, is the nearest Beach.  It has a Blue Flag for quality and facilities.  There are lots of other safe, sandy beaches and coves on both sides of Hook Peninsula and along the coast - Booley and Dollar Bays, Carnivan and Baginbun, Grange Strand, to name but a few. 

Q    Do I need a car?

A    Yes, a car is essential. The nearest village with shops, pubs, restaurants, and post office is Campile about 4 Km away. The nearest large town New Ross, is 9 Km from the Farm. The local pub is about 3 Km. There is very little public transport available in the area. 

Q    Do you live on the farm?

A    Yes, we live in the main farmhouse, which is close to the cottages, so we are nearby if you need any help or information.

Q    What is there to do when we stay in your cottages?

A    There is such a lot to do that most people say they were not able to do and see everything in a week! 

Apart from exploring the local coastal areas of South Wexford and Waterford, the neighbouring counties of Kilkenny, Carlow, Tipperary and Wicklow are also there to be discovered. There are lots of lovely walks and drives in the area as well as in the Blackstairs Mountains to the north of us, and in the Comeragh Mountains a bit further in Co. Waterford. 

There is a good riding stables and a Par 3 Golf course within 3 Km of us, and there is a popular coarse fishing lake, Oaklands Lake about 8 Km away. There is a number of very good golf courses near us.  New Ross 18 hole is the nearest, but in easy reach is the renowned Mount Juliet Course, Waterford Castle Course, Faithlegg Course, Rosslare's St. Helen's Bay Golf Course, Dunmore East Course etc. 

The JFK Arboretum/Memorial Forest Park is a must to visit, and is about 3 Km from us.  It has thousands of trees and shrubs from all over the world in a lovely setting, and the viewing point at the top of Sliabh Coillte (the wooded hill) in the Arboretum provides a great walk and has panoramic views of the surrounding five counties.  

The towns of Waterford, Wexford and Kilkenny are all quite different in character.  The Waterford Crystal Factory in that city has a very good factory tour and an amazing showroom etc.  Kilkenny Castle in Kilkenny city is popular, as is the Kilkenny Design Yard and shop. County Kilkenny has a great many craftspeople who proudly open their workshops and showrooms to  visitors.  Wexford town is famous for its opera festival, and it has a vibrant, artistic, friendly atmosphere.

The tall ship "Dunbrody" is moored at the quayside of New Ross and provides excellent interactive guided tours with actors in period costume and you can access their database of passengers/emigrants to America & Canada.

There are ancient abbeys to visit - Dunbrody Abbey, Tintern Abbey, Jerpoint Abbey, and in New Ross, St. Mary's Abbey. 

...I could go on, and on, but I think you will get the picture that there is lots to do !  

(Of course, you could just 'chill out' and relax in the peace and quiet!)
