Tranquil,rustic, 300 yr old mill retreat,unique

DeirdreRating, 5 stars6 days ago
Six ladies away for a weekend. The house location was ideal as we enjoy walking and it's closed to Dungarvan. The area surrounding the house was quiet. Lovely and warm with a fire lighting on arrival. Overall a thoroughly enjoyable weekend.

Beautiful Countryside Setting Ideal for Groups

ToniaRating, 5 stars1 month ago
A great base for a family wedding. Full of rustic charm and plenty of space for two separate families. The scenery around was stunning with lots of local walks. There was every comfort for a mid-winter stay; logs for the fire, electric blankets for every bed and even hot water bottles! We paid extra for the newly refurbished en-suite room downstairs which was a real bonus. I’d definitely recommend Michael’s house for a large group looking for rustic charm in the countryside.

Kilkenny. Unique country residence.

BozenaRating, 5 stars2 months ago
Margaret was very responsive and check-in via lockbox went smoothly. The house is in a great location, with a private parking, and just a short drive to Kilkenny centre. The house is private and overall great, warm, equipped with everything a family could need during their stay. Super clean, and everything well organized. We especially liked the linen and high quality towels! The host is also very thoughtful and refreshments are left in the fridge, along with coffee pods. Thank you for having our family in your place. We would love to visit again and we are highly recommending this home to your next visitors.

Unique 1 Bedroom with spectacular views & hot tub

Harsh VardhanRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
The apartment was comfortable and had everything we needed. What really made it special was relaxing in the hot tub after an early morning hike – pure bliss! And the view while we soaked? Just beautiful. The location was great too with Waterford and Kilkenny 20-25 mins away, easy to get to all the must-see spots. We loved our stay and would definitely recommend it to anyone.

Grove View log house

ElaineRating, 5 stars1 month ago
A really lovely house. Very cosy and peaceful. Was perfect for a family with young kids but would also suit a family with older kids or adults. Good kitchen and living area for staying in and a porch. It is remote but there are houses around and a shop 5 mins away. Near to Kilkenny and Waterford for exploring and there is a mountain trail a few mins away. Good value and Donal was a kind and helpful host.

Room with a view

GeorgeRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Stayed with my family, group of 5, only for a night but everything was grand and Cora was always attentive and joyful. Surroundings are gorgeous and there are a couple local spots nearby worth paying a visit. Would recommend completely to stay here even if it's just for a night as a "middle point" sort of stay as we did.

Spacious 2 bed cottage with stunning river views

ErinRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
We loved our stay - its a beautiful space, lovely for a relaxing, cosy weekend away. The space is so beautifully designed and very spacious. Beds were very comfortable! Kitchen and bathroom were spotlessly clean. We would definitely stay again in the future. The hosts were responsive and flexible with check in which was very much appreciated. Thank you!

#1 Luxurious Lake Retreat, Breathtaking Views! 5★

YasminRating, 5 stars1 week ago
My partner and I visited here for our anniversary to get away for a peaceful and relaxing time. That's exactly what we got. The scenery was beautiful and calming, the accommodation was so clean, tidy and comfy. Everything was perfect. The host was very welcoming as soon as we got in, showed us how to access the property and left us to do our own thing. Amazing place if you're looking for a nice quiet, private get-away with beautiful scenery.

Sun Light Villa, Castlecomer

AvrilRating, 5 stars2 days ago
Our host was a gem! Extremely quick to communicate and eager to help in any way she could without being intrusive. The house had everything you could need for your stay, a home from home. Close enough to Kilkenny to explore but Castlecomer had some great food outlets. We particularly loved the Lime Tree Cafe and Restaurant and the Avalon House Hotel ! The discovery park also in walking distance would be great if travelling with young family.

Traditional South Kilkenny Cottage: stunning views

LucyRating, 5 stars5 months ago
Louise was proactive in messaging before our stay to make sure we'd have a smooth check-in experience. The property itself is incredibly cosy and has plenty of instructions to make sure you have no issues in working anything. The place was pristine and felt very welcoming on arrival, and the surroundings were stunning. Beds and sofa were very comfortable, and there was a good selection of DVDs and games to choose from.

A wonderful surprise! Large & roomy beyond all expectations! Be aware this is a WORKING FARM and it's wonderful with a farm's smells! Isolated atop an Irish hill yet just a few minutes away from a historical village.

Lovely apartment on scenic working farm!

CarineRating, 5 stars4 months ago
I only stayed one night while traveling through the country. I enjoyed the farm scenery and the excellent coffee and scone while chatting with some locals at Tamp, a local coffee shop. Greta was very welcoming and accommodating with our late arrival and slightly delayed departure. We all had a restful night of sleep after gathering at the kitchen table for a family game we brought with us. It was a delightful stay.

Knockbodly Heights

MoritzRating, 5 stars1 week ago
I’ve had many amazing experiences during various stays across Ireland! Thus it is very special to stand out among these. John was an excellent, welcoming and warm host; the place is spacious, warm and comfy! On top of that it is a very short ride / walk to the local village with at least 6 pubs, restaurants and a river sauna. Definitely looking forward to return soon! :)
