"This was a great place! The car park was around the back of the building with plenty of spaces. The room was clean and well maintained and the bed was comfortable. We ate in the bar restaurant and the food was delicious. Our waiter, John, gave us excellent advice on things to see and do in the area and Trish, one of the managers, went above and beyond with hospitality. I’d definitely stay here again."

"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...

Loved the bedrooms and spa - so new, clean, contemporary and comfortable. The spa is especially good and the therapists were top notch!
Bedroom was fab and super comfy too!
in terms of dining, the staff were super friendly, the food in the golf clubhouse was nice (would recommend some more armchairs / couches vs tables/chairs) but would be nice to have an option to eat in the bar in the castle - also I’d recommend some sort of live music (acoustic or someone on a piano) on weekend nights to...

The owners were very friendly and helpful. The house is immaculate and exactly as depicted in the photos. If I was going to Bunclody again I would definitely stay here.

This house is cared for with so much love and compassion. Every detail is just lovely and they keep everything clean. The stainless steel kitchen is wonderful to cook in and accessible to every guest. Rooms and beds are comfortable! The manager is just darling:)
She decorates the whole house beautifully with fresh flowers and is there for you, if you have any questions or requests.
