"The Abraham was a comfortable stay in a self-contained farm cottage. It had everything we needed from a comfortable bed, a good shower, warm heater and washing machine. Sean was a very friendly and helpful landlord with plenty of helpful advice about dinner options and local sites. We had a wonderfully quiet couple of days. "

We stayed here for a family occasion. The hotel is situated just outside Newbridge with plenty of parking. We have visited this hotel many times but never stayed overnight. We all loved our rooms. They were very spacious with seating areas and a large bathroom. We ate in the Bay Leaf restaurant and the food was exceptional.
