Great property
We spent two weeks at Oban. Everything about this property was great. Joe, was helpful and very easy to communicate with concerning our trip. We had the beach to ourselves. Lastly, the sunrise over the sea is spectacular.

A wonderful place for a relaxing vacation!
We had a wonderful stay! The house more than met our expectations.It was comfortable and had everything we needed to feel like we were at home.The location was perfect. Waking up to the ocean each morning was a delight. The town of Arklow is just a few miles down the road, making restaurants and shops easily accessible. The house made a great base for us to take day trips to castles, attractions, walking trails and the beautiful beaches in Bray and Brittas Bay, a short drive north. We highly recommend this property. We hope to visit again!

Oban Arklow
It would be difficult to improve on either this location or the home nestled within it. The grounds are spacious and well maintained and the facilities are more than adequate. How many places in the World have a private access to a beach?? Additionally, there are many interesting places to visit on the doorstep of this house/home, and the countryside wherever you travel is breathtaking. Generally Oban has everything anybody would wish to have a for a family break/holiday. It certainly comes highly recommended from all of us who stayed in this little treasure.

Stay at Brittas
The property was perfect for our group, completely furnished and fully equipped with everything we needed. The host was very helpful and checking in and out was easy. The position was spectacular, and the weather was sunny enough to use the garden furniture and go down to the beach directly from the garden. We were lucky to see a grey seal pup and mother on the beach - magical. Would definitely recommend.

Family visit
Blown away by the setting when we walked around the house on arrival. Great safe space for kids and lovely beach. House ideal for large mixed age family group - never felt crowded. It is an older house, but everything we needed was there, and we had a great holiday. Joe was readily contactable if needed and very helpful.

Wonderful location & views!
Oban is ideally located to explore the east coast of Ireland. The setting, sea views and beach were picturesque. Joe and Liam were welcoming and very responsive when we reached out with questions over our 2 week stay. While the beach is accessible by private path, having beach chairs provided would have been helpful. The floor plan was perfect for our family and the baths nicely updated. Some of the main furnishings were a bit dated and untidy. The kitchen was a nice layout and size with everything we needed, however, the cabinets were overflowing with “stuff”. Could use a little care and decluttering. All in all, we had a wonderful vacation and could recommend this charming home rental.

Great location, needs maintenance and a clean.
Lovely location, great size for our family group but felt very tired and needed a good clean. No pictures of the bathrooms on the listing and they were in need of decorating and maintenance. We had a good time as the location and layout were great for us, but just felt disappointed with how it is all presented. The overall impression when we arrived was downbeat, but we got over it as the week went on and liked the house and it's views.

Wer Ruhe und eine traumhafte Umgebung sucht, ist bei Joe richtig. Einkaufsmöglichkeiten und Ausflugsziele liegen in der Nähe. Aufgrund der Erkrankung der Putzfee war die Ferienwohnung leider nicht ganz so sauber, wie wir es uns gewünscht hätten. Joe ist uns diesbezüglich entgegengekommen. Danke!

Can’t wait to come back!
If I could afford to move to Ireland and buy this house, I wouldn’t change a single thing about it! Oban feels like home as soon as you walk in. The views are completely breathtaking and the amenities are amazing. We walked the beach and collected beautiful stones for hours, enjoyed the wonderful town of Arklow, and took some easy day trips out (but were always so glad to come back home to Oban). We can’t wait to come back next year!

Oban is just right for a family gathering. The house is spacious and is complemented by the large garden. Having the sea in such close proximity is an added bonus. We thoroughly enjoyed the time we spent there.

A Slice of Heaven
The Sunny Southeast. My first trip to Co Wicklow was more than I could have asked for. The sun, surf, amazing company in a home that easily accommodated 10 of us. All of the amenities that we could have asked for with an amazing view. Oban is a very special place and I hope we get to return one day. Thank you, Joe. From one Kelly family to another. Cheers

Great home for a large group
This lovely home about an hour outside of Dublin was great for our large group of nine adults. Communication with the host was prompt and check in was easy. Home had lots of bedrooms and bathrooms for everyone. The Irish Sea view was fabulous and the beach below was lovely. If you are touring around the east coast and Dublin this is a great spot to be. Thanks so much for everything.

About the host

Host profile image
We are a family of 5 living in the centre of Dublin & we love our weekends in 'Oban sur la mer', our haven of tranquility which we share with you. Our kids love the beach & having the Bridgewater Shopping Centre so close by, means that we are never short of things to do. A great hangout for the larger family gatherings - just 50 mins from Dublin but it seems like it's another world.
