About this property

Peaceful oasis in the heart of New Ross town!

Welcome to your oasis in the Southeast - where history, nature, and tranquility converge. A generous four-bedroom home nestled in the heart of New Ross, our home is conveniently situated within the Norman town wall. Overlooking the picturesque Barrow River and South Kilkenny, it provides a sense of tranquility that feels like a home away from home. Multiple supermarkets are within a two minute drive or a short walk. Staying in and making a meal in this well equipped kitchen with stunning panoramic views is a delight. Surrounded by a spacious garden of approximately half an acre, you’ll find peace and relaxation. Secure off street parking on-site.

The house is just a few minutes walk from downtown New Ross. The town was the filming location of Oscar winner Cillian Murphy’s film Small Things Like These. Explore local history including the Three Bullet Gate, the Ros Tapestry, and the Dunbrody Famine Ship and Center. Enjoy a stroll along the River Walkway or hop aboard The Barrow Princess for a scenic cruise to Waterford City. Visit the Kennedy Homestead, ancestral home of US President John F Kennedy, and the nearby JFK Arboretum.

Discover amazing beaches and historic buildings on the Hook Peninsula. Take a guided tour of the oldest operational lighthouse in the world. Explore Duncannon, Dunmore East, and Kilmore Quay. Wexford’s renowned beaches are perfect for family outings. Kayak on rivers or the sea, hike the stunning Blackstairs mountains, explore local hill trails, and bike along the Greenway. The nearby Heritage Park in Wexford spans 5,000 years of Irish life. Ireland is a golfers’ paradise. There are numerous fantastic and challenging golf courses within easy reach, including Mount Juliet, host of the Irish Open.

From the Normans to the 1798 period, famine times, and emigration, there’s a rich tapestry of history waiting to be discovered right at your doorstep. The Viking town of Wexford, Ireland’s oldest city, Waterford, and the medieval city of Kilkenny await your exploration just a short drive away.

The bustling town of Enniscorthy is home to the famous battle site of Vinegar Hill and the 1798 Center. Admire the historic Norman castle and two cathedrals overlooking the beautiful Slaney River.

Amazing little spot

Easily the best Vrbo our family stayed in during our trip to Ireland. Great house that can fit a large group and host that made us feel at home. The town of New Ross is so cute, close to lots of attractions, and easy base to get to other towns in the area. Wish we had stayed longer!

We so enjoyed our stay in this beautiful spacious home. After traveling throughout Ireland and going from hotel to hotel, we truly enjoyed an evening where the 4 of us could spread out a little in this gorgeous spacious home. The location is perfect. And the property managers were beyond accommodating! Thank you for sharing your home!
