    The pod was so comfortable with good kitchen equipment. The main bedroom was beautiful and so cosy. The pod was nicely decorated and the lighting was stunning. It was spotlessly clean. It was an added bonus to have use of the sauna

Our luxury glamping pod ( An Faoileán ) has a separate double bedroom and a double sofa bed in the living space. The pod has a bathroom with a shower and a kitchenette. Guests have free access to our on site sauna which is shared with one other pod. A QR code to book a private session is available in the pod.
We hope you enjoy the peaceful setting with views to the Tankardstown Copper Mine Engine House and the sea behind it. An Faoileán is just 1.1 km to Bonmahon Beach with a fabulous boardwalk and 850 m to the Copper Coast UNESCO Global Geopark Visitors Centre. We look forward to hosting you / your group / your family.
Within walking distance to Bonmahon village where you will find Bunmahon Surf School, The Engine House Bar & Restaurant and Gourmet House Café. The Copper Coast UNESCO Global Geopark Visitors Centre has a lovely café “ Copper Coast Café “ with homemade goodies. Here you will also learn about the history of Bonmahon’s mining heritage. Pick up a walking trail card and visit Trá na mBó to see the breathtaking views. Waterford Greenway, where you can hire bicycles, is 7.2 km away - a spectacular cycle up through Durrow tunnel and on to Dungarvan. Coumshingaun Lake and the Mahon Falls are 20 km away - definitely worth a visit. Explore Ireland’s oldest city, Waterford, you can STILL feel the presence of the Vikings! Reginald’s Tower, the city’s landmark monument sits at the heart of an area known as The Viking Triangle, and has been in continuous use for over 800 years. Step inside its thick stone walls, and you can enjoy an exhibition on Viking Waterford, as well as the magnificent 12th century Kite Brooch. Lots to do !
