"The Step House hotel was one of our favorite stays on our Ireland trip! We had a beautiful and spacious room that opened onto a terrace overlooking the gardens and mountains in the distance. We enjoyed a delicious dinner and breakfast in the 1808 Pub. The staff was wonderful and the extra touches like flowers and prosecco in the room made this the perfect place to celebrate our anniversary and start off our trip! We enjoyed the small town of Borris and walking the Railway trail. We hope to...

This place was an absolutely wonderful find! Its location right off the motorway is incredibly convenient, and it’s a quick drive to Waterford.
We were a family of four (with an infant) and were delighted to be allowed to check-in early as our room was ready. The room itself far exceeded my expectations; it was cleaner and newer than many dedicated hotels I’ve stayed in. The bathroom was spotless and modern, with excellent hot water and strong water pressure.

My mum and I treated ourselves to 2 night break at Dunbrody Country House. The staff were immensely helpful, friendly and courteous. Our garden suite was very comfortable with a back door leading on to the garden. Food was first-rate. The staff (inc. chef's) made every effort to accommodate my many food intolerances!
Special thanks to Catherine for her directions out of Dunbrody - much better than Google's!! We’ll be back.
