The setting?
.
Perhaps it could be
improved upon ! But not easily, we think.
 |
 |
We are situated in the small area of County Wexford which, known as
"the Sunny South-East", notoriously has the best climate in Ireland.

We are a mile or so from the sea and the famous and historic village
of Duncannon, with its lovely and still-unspoilt beach.

As for the immediate setting and environment, |
they must surely
please and charm even our most demanding visitors.
 |
Two hundred yards back from the
road and
therefore free from traffic noise.

Ten acres of paddocks, a bit of
woodland, and a
glen containing a small lake.

Our livestock includes the rare and
very
attractive breed of Soay sheep, goats, horses
of varying breeds, a variety of chickens, some
ducks, and ferrets, an amusing dog, and
even a rhea (an ostrich-like bird from South
America, not only fascinating and pretty,
but also very friendly).

And everything on the property is
grown organically.

One feature of our attractive and comfortable 18th Century farm-house
and outbuildings that is also worth a special mention is an important
library of several thousand books,
old and new, on almost every subject imaginable. |
