• Cameron (10/5): Great cottage. Fantastic host. 10 out of 10! - Wonderful property. Fit the 4 of us perfectly. Adorable 2nd floor bedroom. The host, Mick was very caring about our comfort. Stocked essentials like milk and butter which was greatly appreciated.
• Jenny (10/5): A lovely place to end our trip to Ireland before travelling to Dublin the next morning. Beautiful, cosy, warm and had ev - Very welcoming, clean and tidy. Beautiful surroundings. Nothing to dislike. Everything was perfect for a peaceful one night stay.
• Brian (10/5): -
• Rebecca (10/5): -
• LOURDES (9/5): - Es una casita muy cómoda con todo lo necesario Que la ducha no tuviera mampara
• Rochelle (10/5): -
• Meg (9/5): Great cottage in Bengalstown. - The road was pretty busy and cottage was right next to sheep farm. pretty odiferous ar times!
• Terry (10/5): A Pleasant Stay - Mick was an excellent host, friendly, welcoming, and professional throughout my stay. He made everything easy from check‑in to check‑out, and he was always available if I needed anything. I felt very well looked after. The property was spotless. Both bedrooms, the bathroom, and the kitchen were clean and well maintained. It really felt like care had been taken to ensure everything was ready to a high standard for guests. The facilities were impressive. The private entrance was a nice touch and gave the stay a real sense of independence. The fully equipped kitchen had everything I needed, and the free Wi‑Fi worked perfectly. The layout was comfortable and practical, and the furnishings felt homely and inviting. The bathroom was modern, fresh, and in great condition. I slept very well. Both bedrooms were cosy and quiet, with comfortable beds and a relaxing atmosphere. Temperature and noise levels were just right, allowing for a peaceful night’s sleep. Breakfast wasn’t provided as part of the stay, but with the fully equipped kitchen it was easy to prepare my own meals, which suited me well. I would happily stay again and would recommend the property to others. The weather
• Paul (10/5): -
• Hayley (10/5): Delightful cottage, perfect for our stay, had everything that we needed, will definitely book agaiin - Everything Couldn’t fault anything
• Jonathan (10/5): - very clean and organised
• Jose Bernardo (10/5): Me gustó la hubicación - La casa es grande. muy nuevas las cosas, limpia y perfecta para pasar unos días en familia por los alrededores, caballos y Kylkenny queda cerca
• David (10/5): Great place for a short stay, very clean and spacious. - Very clean and spacious Nothing
• Ginette (8/5): -
• Wilma (9/5): -
• Robyn Wickenden (9/5): - Comfortable, cozy cottage with a double bed downstairs and twin singles upstairs. Full kitchen and washing machine with drying rack and even an outdoor clothesline with pegs so we could do some washing. Toilet and shower in one room but provided with a squeegee broom to dry the floor. Well stocked dry food items in the pantry and milk and butter in the fridge. Free private parking outside the cottage and off the street. No instructions for the heating or hot water. As foreigners to Ireland, this was a complete mystery for us to work out. There was only one two seater couch, so with 4 adults we had to sit at the kitchen table or lie on a bed.
• Laisly (10/5): Highly recommend - Very clean, comfy loved the place. Everything was perfect
• sullivan (10/5): Lovely cottage to explore Kilkenny, Carlow, Wicklow mountains, and Southern Ireland - Very modern and clean, good parking, lovely views , cooker , oven , washing machine, great shower room, owners were very nice Nothing , everything was good
• Miguel (9/5): Bonita casa de campo con vistas preciosas. - Muy cómoda, con todos los servicios. Todo limpio. Ubicado a las afueras del pueblo pero con una vistas muy bonitas, y cerca de sitios como Kilkenny. Tiene un ático donde a los chavales les encanta dormir. La comunicación con los dueños muy buena. Lo único es la ducha, que hay que tener cuidado para no salpicar agua en exceso. Con una cortina corredera, se soluciona fácil.
• Catherine (10/5): Perfect peaceful stop on a journey from Dublin down to Waterford – clean and very comfortable. - Great communication throughout with a friendly check in that was reassuring and a pint of milk in the fridge that was super-thoughtful. Such a peaceful location with lovely countryside views behind the property. The little house itself was spotlessly clean with really good use made of the space so our overnight stay was really comfortable. What we saw online was exactly what we got. It took away the uncertainty of booking a room in local city hotels which had wildly differing reviews. That mattered as my Mum has mobility issues and the reassurance of knowing exactly where we would be sleeping helped us all to relax into the trip. Its such a minor thing but a cafetiere to make some coffee in the morning would have been great.
• Fauve (10/5): Perfect! - House was perfect size and had everything we needed Nothing. It was all fab!
• STEFANO (10/5): Consigliatissimo. - Cottage molto curato nei dettagli, spazio per 4 persone giusto, cucina completa con tutte le dotazioni. Padrona di casa cordiale e molto disponibile e gentile. Bagno con tutte le dotazioni e anche più del necessario. Struttura sicuramente consigliata.

• Ferne (8/5): Magical, newly remodelled, comofortable, rural home. - The quaintness of the cottage in the rural setting was wonderful! Cows, horses out in the paddocks a beautiful night. Host was accommodating in every way possible. It’s not a negative by all means but be aware that being rural means rural animal sounds that you potentially may not be use too.

• Tony (10/5): Exceptional - The cottage was beautiful and perfectly located for our trip to Kilkenny. Mick (host) and the cottage couldn't have been any better. Highly recommended as a base for a trip to Kilkenny or Carlow once you have access to a car as it is beautifully out in the country.

• Alex (10/5): Exceptional -
• Claudia (10/5): Perfect stay - When we checked in, the cottage was very welcoming and warm despite a power cut earlier in the day. Cottage is very clean and literaly you have everything you need. Short distance from Kilkenny and easy to find with direct access from the main road. Comunication with the owner was great and we appreciated that even if them could not meet us at check in, them phoned later in the evening to make sure that there are no more issues with the power and that we checked in ok. The cottage view is a bonus on a sunny day :). The area is also very quiet. I will highly recommend this accomodation!!! n/a
• Wiktoria (10/5): highly recommend - Beautifully designed, cosy. Very well equipped, comfortable.
• Mc (10/5): Exceptional -
• Collette (10/5): Little gem not to far from kilkenny city - It was perfect for family Nothing
• Joanna (10/5): Charming idyllic rural cottage - This is a fabulous property in a rural location. Finished to a high standard. Everything you could need is in the property. The hosts are very nice people, very helpful and go over and above. Would 200% stay here again. Nothing
• Martin (10/5): Exceptional -
• Chamberlain (10/5): clean and a great host - The host was very welcoming. Very clean, quiet premises with nice hot showers
• Spencer (10/5): Charming Country Home - It's in a quiet country setting. The backyard is essentially rolling fields of cows and sheep. The place is lovely and clean with nice interior. Hosts are responsive and polite. They include everything one needs to cook and even include milk, cookies, butter, and jam. A cobweb could not be found! A little farther from Kilkenny than we realized, about 22 minutes to the medieval mile. Not a complaint, but suggestion, larger sofa where the current one is would offer more seating.
• Edward (8/5): Most enjoyable and a good location for visiting my family - I followed the instruction on the web site and contacted the owner for the information to where the keys were located by phone and I was given clear instruction. Both the owner and his wife greeted us and told us that if there where any problems to contact the at they home nearby The only thing we think the owner should do to improve the cottage is to have a coffee table and a stander lamp near the the sofa as it's a little dark in the evening with out having to put on the big lights
• Cherieanne (10/5): Exceptional -
• Emily (6/5): Pleasant - Myself and my partner love the outdoors,big reason why I chose the lodge, The owner was working on the property working when we arrived,we left for about 40 minutes came back and he was still working right behind the lodge,where we didn't really have alot of privacy,we could see him right through the window,only for it rained he would have continued to work,I could have booked a hotel but we wanted peace and quiet and time to ourselves to just relax for one night,so we were very disappointed with that,and check out was really early between 8-10am nowhere open to get breakfast even,way to early,
• Kieran (10/5): Exceptional -
• Andrew (9/5): Superb -
• Vikki- (10/5): Fabulous Fennisourt - We loved our stay at the beautiful Fenniscourt Cottage. It was in a perfect location for our travels and very easy to find, with plenty of parking available. Mick was available to meet us and talk to us about the property and gave us a food recommendation. The cottage is fully equipped with everything you would need for a stay, plus much more. The beds were super comfy and the shower was boiling, perfect! A thoughtful folder provided with ideas for food and day trips. Everything was perfect- we wished we could stay for longer! We will be back.

• Claire (10/5): Highly recommend - Beautiful countryside setting, spotless with all the added extras included. Shower gel, milk ,bread etc. The cottage itself was extremely clean and well equipped. Comfy beds and was nice and toasty on arrival. No gate at the front, leads onto a busy road. As I had a small child. But that wasn't a huge issue as the weather was wet and we stayed indoors for our time here.

• Sterling (10/5): Exceptional - Cottage is lovely, well furnished and decorated and has excellent supplies for the kitchen etc
• Lorna (10/5): This cosy cottage exceeded our expectations!! - Mick & Majella are excellent hosts. Their beautiful, newly renovated, cottage is a real labour of love. They came to meet us and told us the lovely history of the cottage. Majella made sure we had everything we needed. The cottage was perfectly situated for a catch up with our family and friends in Borris, Kilkenny and Carlow. A beautiful countryside setting with scenic mountain views from the kitchen window. The cottage is finished to a very high standard. The decor is tasteful and transitional and reflects the countryside setting. The cottage was warm and cosy and had everything needed for our family of four. The kids (12 & 9) loved their little room upstairs and especially liked the good internet speed, handy charging spots for their devises, the smart tv and card games. The cottage was fully equipped with everything you could possibly need. Brand new, all mod cons. We thoroughly enjoyed our two night break. We were so impressed we made another booking in the Summer.
