These two churches are more or less identical and were designed by a Gothic Revival architect friend of Pugin . They are truly magnificent and well worth a visit .

Our Ladys Island Lake

Reviewed By CBofDublin - Dublin, Ireland

This is a special place. A lagoon lake with a strong tradition of sacred worship predating the arrival of Christianity to Ireland. You can take a lovely walk around the island and there is some wonderful bird watching to be enjoyed.

In Wexford for a midweek break and went there everday for the racing. Great pub, way out of the norm with big log fire, good porter and nice staff and customers with dogs etc. Go there you will never forget it. Amazing pub.

We had visited Wexford last year and stayed here- we enjoyed it so much we returned again this year. The location is fantastic just a few minutes walk from the heart of Wexford town. Central location to visit other areas and attractions. The staff were all amazing and really friendly and helpful. The room was very spacious and spotlessly clean with cleaning and towel changes provided daily. Tea/coffee making also available. I would recommend a restaurant in the town called Nosh n Coffee for breakfast- we visited multiple times as we were so impressed on our first visit- monster breakfast was delicious and the paninis were delicious.

Tacumshane Windmill

Designated a national monument in 1952, Tacumshane Windmill is the only surviving complete windmill of its kind in the Republic of Ireland. Built in 1846, it features a rare revolving straw thatch cap to catch the wind for its sails. Beautifully preserved and maintained, the key to have a peek inside is available from the adjacent Millhouse Bar & Restaurant.
