Bagenal Harvey & Boxwell Cottages
Historic relaxing cottages near the coast
Bagenal Harvey and Boxwell cottages are on a heritage site, flanking a superb 1500s castle (Tower House). Butlerstown has been in the ownership of the same family for many generations, and it has been the wish of the current owners for many years that its beauty and tranquility should be made more available to the public. Set in 100 acre farm and woodland, in the sunniest corner of Ireland, we are just 10 mins drive from the closest good beach. The castle cottages have their own private Herb Garden and Lavender Haggard, and there is a small soccer pitch for children to play on. Good local restaurants, pubs (such as Mary Barry's pub/restaurant), riding stables, golf courses, museums and bird heritage sites (such as the Saltee Islands, North Slob and Tacumshin Lake) are all within easy striking distance. Donkeys and other pet animals, and a traditionally run vegetable garden, ancient well and other special features all help to make Butlerstown a unique place.

A relaxing stay in a rural location
We had booked Anna and Jim’s cottages for our party of 10 to enjoy our first trip to Ireland. Anna and Jim are wonderful hosts who made sure we had everything we needed. The cottages are comfortable, charming and unique, set in a fairly remote location, so a car is a must. Our youngest daughter enjoyed counting the lambs and feeding the resident donkeys and we were given a fascinating tour of the castle by Jim. We used the cottages as a base to explore the stunning beaches within 10-15 minutes drive, and to go further afield to explore the historic towns of Waterford, Wexford and Kilkenny. A trip to the local pub The Hideout also comes highly recommended - the landlady is very welcoming and it is an easy 1 mile walk down extremely quiet roads.

Wonderful stay and experience
14 of us (6 adults and 8 children aged 3 to 9) had a wonderful stay at the cottages over new years. The cottages oozed character and the bedrooms were very comfortable. There was so much to explore for the kids. Anna was a very friendly and courteous host. Would definitely stay again.

Famtastic Stay
We loved the cottages and setting. There was plenty of space for the 11 of us inside and out. The children loved the outdoor space and feeding the donkeys, chicken and sheep. The hosts were very welcoming and the tour of the castle was a great adventure!

Special place.
My large family group stayed here for a week. It’s a beautiful, rustic property in rural Ireland filled with well chosen antiques and feels very comfortable. It is close to all that the sunny southeast of Ireland has to offer but also very rural if you just want peace and quite. Our hosts were fantastic and so accommodating to us. They have the gift of Irish hospitality.

Perfect tasted of the Irish countryside.
Our stay at the Cottages was perfect! The cottages were so cute and the beds comfortable. It was clean and well kept and the groups were beautiful. As a bonus, we got a tour from Jim of the castle and his gardens. He took us right to the top and explained everything. We had people ranging from 77 to 10 in our party and everyone in between and they all love this place. We spent the evening playing cards in the yard or sitting on the lawn enjoying the perfect weather. If you want a relaxing taste of the Irish Countryside, this is the place to be! Wish we could have stayed longer.

Magical Christmas
Anna and Jim are amazing!! Our stay at the castle was truly one we will cherish forever. We were a very large group of family friends (6 adults, 6 kids ages 6-11) and there was plenty of space for all to be cozy together or spread out when we wanted. The cottages are beautiful and we had such a wonderful time cooking meals, relaxing by the fireplace, and exploring the grounds. Jim gave us a wonderful tour of the castle- the kids were so amazed and excited. Anna was so sweet and made sure that the kids had time to feed the sheep and donkeys apple core treats. I cannot say enough how special our 5 days at the castle were!

Family holiday for husband 60th
These characterful, quirky and creaky cottages were great for our family get-together. Plenty of room for 8 adults and 3 children and a baby (cot available on request). Beautiful grounds with donkeys and sheep the children can feed with carrots. The cottages are well equipped with essentials, although no washing machine for longer stays. The surrounding area is beautiful and would recommend Karoo for breakfast or lunch. Correspondence with owner Anna was excellent, although did not meet her during our stay, we only met her husband Jim who was lovely and left us to get on with things. One thing that could be improved on is more showers as there is one for the two cottages and the rest of toilets have baths only. Although this did not spoil our stay at all. If you like modern and minimalist this is not for you. We all loved it and if you're looking for something a bit different you'll love it here.

An unforgettable experience
We stayed at Tomhaggard cottages in April 2022 as a family of 13 in the run-up to my wedding. The scenery of the surrounding area, the rustic charm of the cottages and the fantastic hospitality of Anna and Jim made our stay unforgettable and truly special. Memories of preparing family meals in the well equipped kitchen, sitting around the roaring fire and feeding the donkeys will stay with us for a long time. On top of that, Jim's excellent tour of the castle just was a perfect finish to our stay in Tomhaggard. I can't recommend this place and its hosts enough - beautiful all round!

A wonderful family stay
Can't thank Anna & Jim enough for their hospitality during our weekend stay. Anna was super helpful and also treated the children to donkey & hen-feeding, which they absolutely loved. Jim gave us a truly amazing tour of the castle, which was so informative and appreciated. A beautiful spot to visit - would highly recommend.

Home from home kind of place.
We really enjoyed a very nice weekend here; it lent itself to the how we wanted to celebrate a special birthday. Anna and Francoise helped facilitate a private party in the main house which we thoroughly enjoyed. The tour of the castle was very educational, Jim has a great grasp of the history of the place. There was only one drawback that we could have found inconvenient had we wanted to stay longer; this was that, although there are a number of bathrooms, there is only 1 shower available; that aside, we all felt at home in this lovely rural setting.

Just Fabulous
We were a large family group and booked both cottages. We absolutely loved our stay. The cottages are beautiful, and spacious enough that we could all gather together in one for the evenings. The grounds are fabulous, we loved the castle tour the Anna brought us on, and the kids loved feeding the donkeys. And the location is great with plenty to do close by. We were only sad that we weren't staying longer, but will definitely book again in the future.

Absolutely Charming
We had a very special week on our baby’s first holiday with both sets of grandparents. The cottages are spacious yet cosy and packed to the brim with character. Anna and Jim couldn’t have been more hospitable, giving us a tour of the castle, and letting us collect apples from the orchard to feed the donkeys. Location was great for day trips. We also had a wonderful meal cooked by Francoise on our first night. We will be back, thank you Anna and Jim.

Amazing wedding weekend
This place is one of a kind! My husband and I got married at Butlerstown, and we also brought our families and a few close friends to stay for a couple days in the run-up to the wedding. We would wholeheartedly recommend it to others who are looking for a similar wedding experience. We will not forget the feeling of being in the countryside with a castle outside our door. We wanted a beautiful, relaxing spot for our wedding weekend, but what we got was far more than that.
We had 16 people in our group, 12 of whom actually stayed onsite, and found that the cottages served our purposes well: we could all just fit into the same room to eat and relax (very few rentals offer this, especially nice ones!). As one would expect, we were a bit on top of each other, food prep and showers required coordination and so on, but it worked.
When it came to the wedding itself, Anna and Jim were phenomenal. They made the planning process easy and went above and beyond to make it a special weekend for us. On Anna’s recommendation we asked her neighbor Susan to cook our wedding dinner (delicious), which we ate in the main house. The presentation, the beautiful details of the house, and the exceedingly warm hospitality made it such an incredible day. You just don’t get this kind of attention and warmth at even the finest hotels and venues. We could not have been happier with our wedding day. Our families will be talking about this for a long time.
And we can second what others have said: the cottages are lovely; the beds are so comfortable; etc. We really enjoyed the castle tour by Jim, who has carried out a lot of the restoration and maintenance. It was a real highlight of a wonderful trip. Can’t recommend this place and our hosts more!

Will definitely be back
We booked both of Anna’s Cottages for a family celebration, we were a mixed party of children, teenagers and adults young and not so young and everyone thoroughly enjoyed their stay. The kids had animals to feed and grounds to explore and we’re beyond happy and didn’t want to leave. Jim brought us on an amazing tour of the castle which we all loved. . And it was topped off by a fabulous evening in the main house with delicious food cooked by a neighbour of Anna’s. Everyone of us has vowed to return at a later date.....and yes what they say is true, the beds were soooo comfortable!!! Thank you so much Anna and Jim for a perfect weekend, see you both again soon x

A special stay - stunning accomodation surrounded by nature.
Otherwordly! If you are looking for something different, quiet and very beautiful, you'll love this place. We enjoyed luxurious accomodation, great outdoor space and privacy, and proximity to an idylic beach & other beauty spots. The children loved feeding the donkeys, and Anna took them off to feed the hens too, and we all loved our private tour of the castle which gave a real sense of what it was like to live there 500 odd years ago. It would also be a super spot for a larger group using the two cottages (which are spacious), and great for self catering.
