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.

Really enjoyed our stay in our cozy hut, very comfortable and clean. Mary is an excellent host and the breakfast was delicious with homemade jams and bread. I would recommend this place and plan to return soon. Thank you Mary for your hospitality x

Wilton Castle is a truly unique offering. The castle has been lovingly restored by its owners and mixes old worldly charm with high class furnishings and finishes. The result is exquisite.
We arrived after dark and were met by Antoinette and Sean the owners who guided us to our suite. We had seen photos on the booking engine’s website but couldn’t believe the amazing suite we'd booked which was spacious, with high ceilings and large windows, a separate living room complete with log-burning...

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.
