Lorraine's cottage is comfy and homely, perfect for a couples and families. Lorraine welcomed us at the gate and took us through the cottage, she also made some recommendations for pubs, cafes and shops in town. Lorraine left us to ourselves but was available via text and email to answer any questions and provide suggestions for things to do. While the location was perfect for us as we were attending a wedding in the neighbouring town, the town is very quiet. There are lots of places to get some breakfast and lunch, however, we found it difficult to get a decent dinner in town; there are many pubs but none seem to serve dinner. Kilkenny city is only a 20 minute drive away and there are many restaurants and shops, as well as Kilkenny castle, which is a must do! While there is public transport near by, we found it very beneficial to rent a car while in Ireland. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Lorraine's and would recommend it to anyone!
