Gitta's place is sheer magic!!! If you are looking for a spot for rest and rejuvenation, you have found it here. Gitta has attended to very little detail to ensure the comfort and happiness of her guests. She is truly amazing. For example, before our arrival, she and John had warmed the sauna (knowing that my husband would be using it), lit the fire, and Gitta had baked incredible cake and bread for us, as well as having stocked the fridge with milk, eggs, jam. She also had delicious granola for us! We walked in from a bit of rain, feeling cold and hungry, and the ambiance of The Stable was transformative!!!! Also, the quiet there is absolute! We slept for nine hours straight. We cooked breakfasts and one dinner there, and found the kitchen to be adequate. We very much appreciated the high quality of the linens/towels provided. Gitta and John are simply wonderful human beings who care about others, and it shows in everything they do. Don't miss the opportunity for relaxation in the countryside if such a thought appeals. The traffic was bumper to bumper in Kilkenny -- at Gitta's place, the cows and sheep and magical light were what we viewed. I could hardly bear to depart!
