Escape to this chocolate box cottage situated in a peaceful countryside location at the foot of Slieve Bloom Mountains near the town of Mountrath. This traditional country escape is wonderful for groups of leisure lovers seeking a secluded retreat in the heart of County Laois. Stroll the bustling streets of Mountrath (3.5 miles) to discover cosy coffee nooks, lively pubs, and a monthly artisan market. History buffs can peruse the opulent 18th-century grounds of Abbeyleix Heritage House and the medieval Abbeyleix Castle (each 6.5 miles) while keen amblers explore the tranquil landscape of Abbeyleix Woods (7 miles).
A homely sentiment flows throughout this inviting property. Enjoy antique-style furniture, checked country fabrics, and warm earthy tones throughout. Unravel woolly outer layers at the door then congregate in the lounge to stretch out amongst the plump furnishings. Walk over the pretty tiled flooring into the kitchen/diner, and cooking in the spacious country kitchen or gather around the dining table to dish out some local takeout. Retire for the night with your choice of three tastefully styled bedrooms, each with a distinct character. Finally there are two lovely bathrooms, one of which is an en-suite.
Soak in the morning sun from the grassy garden or gear up for an al fresco afternoon feast.
