It's not far to walk into the centre of Kilkenny. I used taxis a few times to return to the accommodation and they were not expensive for the short distance. This is a very friendly place. Cathy has some rescue dogs and it was lovely sitting in the kitchen having a cuppa tea with my host and having a dog put his head on my lap. This place felt very homely, like I was staying with a friend that I just hadn't met before. Some mornings I'd have a dog waiting for me at my bedroom door! The house has big dense trees in front of it and that made for a very quiet peaceful night's sleep. The room was very large and the bed supremely comfortable.

There was nothing I did not like. I would go back in a heartbeat.

Cathy was an amazing host. We loved having conversations with her over a cup of tea and being surrounded by cute puppies. The bed was super comfy and we slept like a rock. The bathroom (and bedroom) are spotless. The location is great as well, very walkable. We very much enjoyed our time with Cathy :)

That we only had 2 nights, will definitely return.

Cathy is the most wonderful host, and welcomed us into her beautiful home. From the minute we arrived, with loads of cuddles from all the fur babies to many a cups of tea in the cosy kitchen in front of the aga. The King size bed was comfy and room tastefully decorated. The home was spotlessly clean. Cathy's home is just a short walk to all the beautiful sights of Kilkenny. Secure parking in the yard, was great.

Cathy is so accommodating. The Garden is so well kept and lovely to be able to sit outside. Close to City. Enjoyed the company of the dogs..

Kathy was real helpful and kind, and helped us whenever we needed assistance. The location of her place is in a perfect spot for walking in to town, great landscape area, and plenty of food establishments. There was a great Pub down the street called, The Nore Pub. Loved this B&B.

Booking here was the best decision I made on my trip in Ireland. You can walk anywhere in Kilkenny from this location so it makes a great base to enjoy the town. The house is charming and my room was massive, but the best part of my stay was Cathy and the dogs. Traveling solo becomes lonesome at times, so it was lovely waking up in the morning and coming home in the evening to conversation and pets for the dogs. I really am grateful to Cathy for how welcoming she was to me.

Spotless bedroom & bathroom! Hosts were really helpful and friendly. Plenty of parking and the dogs are super friendly also!

Cathy was very accommodating and the hospitality we received from her and the dogs was nothing short of pleasant. It was a quiet place, we had good rest and good conversation with everyone in the house, and the place was convenient for walks to the city centre and to other attractions.

There was nothing that we didn't like.

it was a relaxing stay in a perfect location- easy access to the bus and easy walking to the town centre. We enjoyed sitting outside on the swing in rhe late afternoon, with the dogs providing good company and entertainment. The grounds provided a beautiful, private setting with Cathy being within easy reach if we needed her.

Incredibly kind, warm & thoughtful. I was exhausted on arrival, had caught a cold & they went above & beyond to make sure I was comfortable. Lovely people, adorable dogs & a beautiful home in a great location, easy walk to everything in Kilkenny. Simply lovely.

The two of us had a wonderful time staying in a large, clean room with garden views. The host is a treasure - warm, friendly, generous and helpful. Staying in this well located house on a big block of land made Kilkenny the highlight of our Irish trip. The dogs are delightful and well behaved.

Dogs, dogs, dogs, dogs, as I fellow rescuer, I absolutely loved staying here and interacting with the rescued dogs. Kilkenny has been the cherry 🍒 on the top of my cake on my Ireland trip. My stay with Cathy and Kate has been wonderful. The room is absolutely gorgeous. Love the antiques. Cathy was very helpful with advice on where to go to. She was very welcoming with her home baked bread and cups of tea.

Didn’t bother us but worth noting the bathroom is accessible from a common hallway so there is a chance of running into the hosts or dogs on your way to and back.

Loved our stay so much, our hosts were absolutely wonderful and gave us amazing tips for the city and surroundings. The dogs were super friendly and welcoming. The house and our room were beautifully decorated, so many little details that gave it character. The bed was incredibly comfortable and we slept like babies.

Cathy is an exceptional host and an exceptionally kind human being. She and her niece Kate were both so hospitable and made me feel very welcome. They offered me food, drinks, and even arranged a trip to the reptile museum which I thoroughly enjoyed. The rescue dogs all have very sweet temperaments and getting to pet them was an added bonus :P the location was great, a short walk from the city centre, and the room was very clean and excellent value for money.

Nothing. All was perfect. Clean place, easy access for all places. too kind people. warm place. clean areas. Free WiFi. Hot water all time.

Hosts (Cathy & Kate) are extremely kind, supportive, cooperative and humble. I would never meet pretty ladies like them. House Facilities are in a great condition. Location is too close from the city center, historical places, and shopping malls. I can not find words to express my gratitude regarding the stay, and the house owners. Dogs are very beautiful and kind. People shall find happiness there. I believe that all travelers would repeat their stay there. Thank you for everything :)
