County Wexford, in Ireland’s south-east corner, has a maritime past going back to the Vikings. Nowadays it’s a peaceful and tranquil land, with sandy beaches, fertile pasture, isolated mountain ranges and ancient sites. Our holiday base, Enniscorthy, is a hilltop town with a picturesque setting above the River Slaney. It is also the perfect base from which to indulge in the rich heritage and folklore of this under-explored part of the Emerald Isle.
