Guilcagh is a beautiful 19th century deconsecrated church situated in the Waterford countryside close to Portlaw and 20 minutes drive from Waterford city Centre. The church was extensively and sympathetically restored in the early noughties and staying there is a truly unique experience. It has wonderful original features with vaulted ceilings, gothic style doors and arches and beautiful original stained glass windows. Modern touches include underfloor heating and a huge wood burning stove which makes this a very cozy and comfortable place to stay. Having just spent Christmas there I can say with hand on heart it’s one we will never forget. The local village has friendly pubs, several convenience stores, the stunning Curraghmore house and estate and there are lovely woodland walks within minutes drive of the church. Highly recommended.
