Noeleen was a great host - she met us on arrival and gave us a warm welcome and showed us around and talked through how everything worked. She gave us a welcome pack of milk, bread, biscuits and cereals. She lives close by had we needed anything. The cottage was bright and clean and the kitchen well equipped. The wood burning stove gave off great heat and it was warm and cosy. It is well situated just off the central square in Inistioge and around the corner from Otters Pub and 2 minutes from the 2 other pubs and shop. Inistioge is a really pretty, well-kept village with many beautiful walks on the doorstep - through the Woodstock Estate and along the river Nore. It is a 15 minute drive from Thomastown which has supermarkets and cafes and Graiguenamanagh and Borris are also nice to visit. All in all, I would really recommend a stay here and hope to go back some day.
