My wife and I live in a cosy 3 bedroom apartment with spectacular views over Tramore Amusements, Beach Bay and Back Strand.
We are situated on the south-east coast of Ireland, approximately a 10 minute drive from Waterford, walking distance to all of Tramore's amenities and excellent access to the spectacular Copper Coast Geopark. (www.coppercoastgeopark.com)
You can have shared use of the kitchen/living room/office with prior arrangement.
Unfortunately, due to a balcony and stairs, we feel that our home is not suitable for small children (under the age of 12).
Thank you,
Mark & Patricia

Mark, and his wife, Patti, are just simply wonderful hosts. They are warm, friendly and fun, helpful beyond words and made me feel more than welcome. Genuinely nice and good people. Their place is very nice, neat and cosy, and has a stunning view.
Anyone should consider themselves lucky if they get a chance to be hosted by them!August 2019

I was only there for a short stay but Mark was a most friendly host and the room was exceptionally clean and comfortable. Would definitely stay there again ;)

It was unforgettable! Mark and Patti are really kind and helpful, and their house is so near the beach, I mean the location is much better than most hotels in Tramore to enjoy the beautiful scenery of the strand. I got more than my expectation staying with them.
