If you’re looking for somewhere to stay that has bucket loads of character and every mod con you need then Nore Valley House is the place for you! The first thing that strikes you are the views from the front of the house which are spectacular.
Fergus, the Host, gave us a tour of the house which is a wonderful mix of old world charm and modern comfortable living. It even has its own Music Room and Bar!
Fergus had left us an amazing welcome pack which included tea, coffee, biscuits, milk, cereal, fruit cake, cheese and crackers - some welcome but also spoke volumes about his attention to detail in making our stay special. How many times have you stayed somewhere with a dishwasher and washing machine but no dishwasher tablets or washing powder? Not a problem here as Fergus had these covered!
Nore Valley House is a great base for touring Kilkenny and the South East. Kilkenny City is a short 10 minutes drive away, the Waterford to Dungarvan Greenway Cycle Route an hour’s drive with Tramore a little further. The Kilkenny to Bennetsbridge Nore River Walk can be accessed from the property and is a very pleasant ramble.
As you’ve probably guessed we had a great stay - in a nutshell the house is fantastic and Fergus a perfect Host.
