The Orchard at Highbank was a highlight of our trip. Julie made us feel right at home, along with the two dogs, horses, and other wildlife on the farm. The ciders in the fridge and organic coffee were much appreciated, as was the private tasting and look at their copper still. Went for a lovely nature walk throughout the farm in the morning and it's hard to believe that you're a short distance away from bustling Kilkenny. Highly recommend!
