I grew up in Kilkenny many years ago so it was great to be able to bring my family back and we couldn't have asked for a better house or host. This house is in a great location, so close to town, yet very serene. We walked into town several times. It’s about 20 – 25-minute walk and a very economical taxi ride back if needed. The highlight of the trip for my granddaughter was the frequent visits from the dogs (Toby and Hector) and petting the horses. We highly recommend and will definitely stay here again the next time we are home.
