Two old friends, we spent a perfect couple of nights at Avondale as part of a tour of Kildare and Wicklow. Avondale is set back from the main road but, with a large garden behind, it is surprisingly quiet. A huge advantage to its situation is being able to walk into town for an evening meal, leaving the car at home. A sitting room for guests with a variety of refreshments was also welcome and the breakfast was excellent too. Altogether a place to be recommended.
