Comments: We Loved Staying with Dermot & Sandra, they helped us plan activities, places to visit, gave us directions, and even a ride on their way into the city, so we wouldn't have to spend extra money on a cab. We will be back and we will stay with them. And if you read this thank you Dermot & Sandra. Sincerely Ryan & Lucia McKeag....

Comments: The B&B was very clean, staff were very accomodating and nice, and the breakfast was lovely.I did, however, have a few problems with the directions provided to the B&B, even with SatNav. It seemed as though they were written for locals who know the roads. If you are leaving Kilkenny, follow the N10 towards Dublin. (That will get you out to the Dublin Road as the directions indicate). The B&B is a fair way out of Kilkenny, on the Dublin side, which worked out perfect for us.

Comments: This house has a very nice set up and Dermett is an extremely gracious host. If your lucky, he'll make you a traditional Irish breakfast. Very clean rooms, but there is no common area except the dining room. The house is 7 km outside Kilkenny, but there is a pub right up the street - just make sure you eat dinner before 8 because that is when they stop serving food there.

Comments: If you dont have a car, this place is located quite a while away from Kilkenny however we were offered a trip into town on our last day which was brilliant. Also, the local pub stops serving food after 7pm so dont leave it too late like we did!

Comments: This is a nice, clean B&B with great hosts. You are unable to walk to the city of Kilkenny, but it's only about a 5-10 minute drive. Quiet and peaceful location. Nice little local's pub just down the road for a drink or two at the end of the day.

Comments: The couple running the Ashbrook house are very helpful and welcoming. I'd go back for sure. It's nice and tucked away but still only a 10 min drive into Kilkenny city center. Even when the power went out in the district(started at the local resturant we were eating at and hit the Ashbrook house). They brought us candles to use and were very concerned for our well being. I'd highly suggest to anyone looking for a home away from home.
