Clone Country House - Wicklow
Bed & breakfast
😠 EXTREMELY UNPLEASANT EXPERIENCE-watch your deposit! We booked clone house in April for a hen party (~20 guests). Prior to the booking, Jeff was not very responsive/helpful at times regarding certain queries. The house was nice (albeit quite chilly-could definitely do with more heating!) However, we...

👍👍 We had a lovely morning at the centre. The exhibition was very informative and Martin was so generous with his time and knowledge. It was a pleasure chatting to him. He even brought a brolly down to the house so we didn't get too wet. Love the puca

😐 [Dropping to 3 stars after my second visit, the working layout is just too dull] This is a tough review to give…. I want to fully support this endeavor by true rail enthusiasts, as a model rail nut this is brilliant to have… I just recall my youth… my communion, my confirmation… I got to choose wha...

👍👍 I have passed Hamwood House so many times & said I must visit. Yesterday was the day - we spent a lovely couple of hours meandering around the magical garden trail.
