Vacation rentals with a fireplace in County Kilkenny

Kevin was a great host, Lovely house, very spacious, comfy beds, well equipped kitchen and fantastic location for the church & step house hotel for a wedding we attended. Great to park up and walk around. Beautiful surroundings. Very nice town and the people were very friendly. Thanks Kevin.

This is our second visit to Weavers Cottage.. The cottage is light, airy and warm. The furnishing and fixing are all of a high standard. The cottage has every amenity you could need. It is 5 minutes from the centre of the village and the river. There are many beautiful walks from the village and nearby. Mary is a warm and welcoming host. She kindly leave basic provision to see you through your first night at the cottage. When I suffered toothache she helped us find a local emergency dentist. I cannot praise Mary or her cottage enough.

We stayed at Donals place for 2 nights at a reasonable cost. We loved the tranquility of the place. very spacious, very clean and all the essentials provided. parking just outside the door, very safe. The local information regarding places of interest, places to eat / drink etc were first class. We met with Donal after arriving and found him to be a friendly and charming man, nothing was too much trouble for him. The property is remote, however with a car / bike the nearest village is only a few miles away (L1035). We visited Carrick-on-Suir (6 miles, N24) on Donals recommendation, a large town with all amenities available. Waterford is a car ride away. Overall, a brilliant place. Thank you Donal.

We are a group of seven women interested in walking and culture. Michael's house was perfect for us. It is in a beautiful setting, very rural but 5 minutes drive from Castlecomer and the Discovery park. Around 20 minutes drive to Kilkenny. We had loads of room with nearly everyone having their own bedroom. Great sitting room with plenty of space to hang out. We ate in the hotel in Castlecomer one evening and got a deliery from The Tuk Tuk Wok Barn the other evening which was gorgeous. We even were able to have our breakfast outside on the tables provided. Michael responded immediately with any queries and was very helpful with recommendations for food, taxis etc. Would highly recommend this beautiful farmhouse in beautiful countryside. We will be back.

Absolutely fantastic house and host. We were late arriving but Elizabeth left a key out for us. The milk and sweet treats were very much appreciated after a long day. The house is very easy to find. Very clean and comfortable. The beds were great. Bathroom is lovely and the shower is fantastic. Our favourite part was definitely the summer house. Such a peaceful and comfy place to curl up with a book. Great location. Lots of food options nearby. The discovery park is great especially the mining museum. Very friendly little town too. We wouldn't be the most sociable people but we even attended a coffee morning in the local charity shop and had a great time.

Wonderful house within its own estate with tranquil setting and full of period character. Would have loved to stay longer and enjoyed more of the property and grounds but would highly recommend somewhere to while away time!

Lovely peaceful location, great accommodation. Kevin was helpful and responsive. Being able to walk into Kilkenny was great.

Susan was wonderful. Met us on our late arrival with fresh scones and a fire burning in the fireplace. Gave us recommendations for nearby experiences and also let us settle in quickly. Checked in with us to see if we had needs and were great at communication. We had a lovely time at their beautiful property.

JJ Place is perfect for a nice get away, ideally located close to Rathdowney, place was cosy, JJ had food in fridge and loads of other bits n bobs to get us started. it was immaculate clean and a lovely stove to keep us warm. full of turf and basket full also.

Thank you Marilyn for such a welcoming place. We felt right at home immediately. Thank you also for the extras left in the fridge & pantry. Your recommendation for dinner in Kilkenny was spot on …. and it would be remiss of me to not say a huge thank you to Ted for his welcome & farewell. What a beautiful dog.

Our host Pat and his wife Phil were wonderful, friendly and lots of suggestions. We enjoyed our conversations with them, the house was spotless. If you like the country this is the place, not far from Kilkenny. The area is surrounded by farms, we look forward to returning some day.
