Curracloe Beach
Miles of golden sand and dunes, one of the best-known beaches in Ireland. Perfect for long walks, swims and picnics.
Welcome
Wake up to the sea.
Tuskar View sits on a quiet road on the sunny south-east coast, a few minutes from Blackwater village and the long sandy beaches of north Wexford, including Curracloe.
The living room, dining room and main bedroom all look out to sea, and a glass conservatory opens onto the front garden for morning coffee or an evening glass of wine. Inside it's simple and comfortable: wooden floors, a wood-burning stove, a proper kitchen and two double bedrooms made up with fresh linen. Outside there's a big lawn and room to do nothing at all.
