Hotel review: Escape to the country estate a stone's throw from Kilkenny City 

Just 3km from the heart of Kilkenny City, guests can avail of all the Marble City’s food, cultural, and artistic treasures

The original property, with its handsome Victorian Italianate facade, conjures romantic notes as it reveals itself along the sweeping driveway

Our rating: 8.25/10
