We are just back from a fantastic holiday at Abhainn Ri Farm in county Wicklow, Ireland. The cotteges are set in wonderful location with beautiful views of the lake. The cotteges are extremely well equipped with all mod cons, everything seemed new and cleaned. The owners were very helpful. We went with our 7 month and 3 year old daughters.The 3 year old has had the time of her life running around the fields and feeding the animals every evening. We are definitely going back and we thouroughly recommend it to families with toddlers and young children. Rating 5 out of 5, Valentina, Apr 2011
