    Lovely comfortable apartment on the ground floor. Great location for visiting Kilkenny and the Rock of Cashel. Great host and met some super fellow guests during breakfast. Extremely good value for money. Would stay here again if in the area.

    The host was friendly and accommodating especially because we went as a group. The property was very big and the kids all played outdoor. He also offered breakfast which wasn’t part of the booking. That was really thoughtful. I will definitely...

A charming house situated 25 minutes outside of Kilkenny city, and 30 minutes from Cashel. The Motorway is only 8 minutes away. The house is situated midway between the towns of Freshford and Urlingford. Ther is a smoking hut to accommodate any smokers and a nice garden view. This house is purpose built for B and B and complies fully with Kilkenny fire regulations. It also has safe broadband and full public liability insurance.
Oliver Kenny is a hard working man, who enjoys a busy household. He loves a good chat and enjoys most sports.
Our house is situated beside a main road, but is quiet. We are between two family houses, so there are always children playing in the gardens. It is a friendly, small neighbourhood.
