We had a lovely stay. It was less than ten minutes from Kilkenny to Tess’s place. When our GPS failed, she was kind enough to drive into town to direct us. She provided a clean comfortable room with a beautiful garden view from the window. The guest sleeping quarters felt separate from the host’s living area. The private bathroom was spotless. Tea, biscuits, and a delicious hot breakfast were served in the dining room. Her hospitality was genuine.
