This home is just wonderful! The location gives fantastic views and a world of privacy and quiet but you are also in easy walking distance to Ashford center and the beautiful Mt. Usher Gardens and restaurant as well as all essentials. Wicklow, Greystones, Bray, Glendalough etc. are all short, picturesque drives away. Brittas Bay is an easily accessible, pretty, sandy beach - though there are lots of other options on the beach front.
My family ranged in age from 1 to 82, with a 3 year old and 17 year old and everyone had a great time and found something for them. If you do have younger kids (under 7) the swings and slides and treehouse etc. are a source of excitement. The astroturf football pitch is great for all ages (maybe not 82) and the outside seating makes meal time in good weather really simply and a treat. I really don't think you'll have a better find for hosting families with active kids.
Karen was great to communicate with and provided all sorts of guidance, recommendations, and equipment (high chair, cot, etc.) that made things easy and made me look good with family - which is never a bad thing. The kitchen is very well stocked and there are ALDI, Lidl, Tesco about 15 mins away and a big fridge/freezer and storage area so family meals are a good practical way to eat together. Washer and dryer also very helpful and four separate bathrooms is very nice.
There's also a piano and great internet for multiple devices - we had some people that needed to do some work video calls, etc. Didn't use the TV or sauna but seemed great unexpected options. This was a once in a lifetime holiday for our family and Karen and this home were central to truly special memories for us.
