The hall leads to a porch with a traditional style Irish half-door, used in days of old to keep chickens and livestock out while letting fresh air in. Well there are no chickens now at Bracken Hill, yet the half-door allows the wonderful fresh mountain air in and the occupier to lean over and savour the countryside all around. Built in the middle of last century as a wood-cutters cottage, it has been lovingly restored and renovated by its owners.

'Bracken Hill' manages to be cosy and spacious at the same time. Nestled in the Wickow Hills, it is an ideal base for touring scenic county Wicklow, known as the 'Garden of Ireland'. Close to stunning mountains & valleys, rivers & forests, beaches, villages & towns. The unique monastic settlement of Glendalough, Luggala, Sally Gap, Powerscourt House & Gardens, Blessington Lakes and all that Wicklow has to offer, including fishing, golfing, horse riding, biking and hill walking to name but a few, are all close at hand to this property.
Roundwood is a pretty village just 5km from the property. It has shops, pharmacy, restaurants, pubs, coffee shops, award winning butchers & hardware store.
Enniskerry, another charming village is 10km away, as well as restaurants, green grocers and pubs it also has craft and clothes shops.

Fitted out to the highest standard, you are ensured a most comfortable and relaxing stay. Whether you wish to explore the surrounding area or intend to relax at the cottage, you will be sure to want to return again and again.

This holiday home is perfect for families, with large garden and play area, toys and puzzles.
If a romantic getaway 45 mins from the city is what you are after - 'Bracken Hill' is a great bolthole for couples with its wood burning stove, kingsized bed, and walks from the back door that meander past heather beds deep into the heart of Wicklow.
For friends who want to share a touring/biking or activity holiday base the three bedrooms and two bathrooms provide ample space, with the kitchen/dining area laid out for those who like to cook, talk and entertain at the same time.
For nature lovers, deer, foxes, and pheasants visit the garden, song birds provide a dawn chorus, lambs bleat and cattle low in nearby fields, while Ballinastoe Woods behind the property teams with flowers, fauna, and unspoilt nature.
