Just a few finishings needed where repairs have been made, a bit of painting here and there in rooms

Lovely place to stay with great views out front, always very comfortable, and Oliver is lovely and friendly

Great value for money. We had the ground floor apartment which was ideal for a family of four. My parents stayed in the budget double and were also very happy with their room.

nothing!

Located in rural Kilkenny, an ideal spot for travelling to Kilkenny or Tipperary. Although our booking indicated 'no meal plan', th host Oliver invited us to have breakfast. Everything was lovely.

A bit long way from the town center which this may be also be a credit in some way!

Beautiful spacious and nice area and surroundings. Clean rooms and quite place.

Being a tall person, I found the angled ceilings a bit tricky - kept knocking my head

Very pleasant surroundings. Great caring host Oliver. A little further from Kilkenny than I thought.

Nothing negative

Quiet location in farmland, lovely host Oliver, continental breakfast included

The mattress. It was uncomfortable and lumpy... probably just nearing the end of it's lifespan. Rooms were not soundproof as advertised so when other guests moved around and spoke it was like the walls were made of paper. Also road noise was pretty loud. Had it not been advertised as soundproof i wouldn't have commented.

Good value for money, spacious room, beautiful view. Friendly and helpful host. Spacious ensuite with great shower and the offer of a continental breakfast. Oliver could not have been more helpful.

The location was pefect for our travels in to Kilkenny and the surrounding countryside. Oliver was most helpful in giving us directions and he was a great host. The breakfast was continental but substantial. Lovely breakfast room. Spacious room that had everything we needed. Peaceful and quiet location to rest after busy day travelling!

Oliver was a lovely host. He helped us with washing and hurling. He let us use his oven. The room was comfortable and the space was bigger than a hotel room! It wasn't luxurious but it was nice to come home to. Oliver provided a little breakfast and the area was lovely and quiet.

The Full Mattress was not comfortable. The description on Booking wasn’t exactly accurate. There’s one large bedroom with a Full and Twin bed and a curtained area in the same room with another twin bed. There is 1 toilet and 1 shower, but they are in separate rooms. Finally, the washer was not in the unit but shared for the property. However, we had no trouble using it and Oliver had a dryer as well which is uncommon. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and would stay again! It was also far less expensive than some of my other options for our family of 4.

Fantastic host and location! Central for Kilkenny, Cashel, Kildare, Glendalough if you have a car. Oliver was a great host! Interesting to talk to and he wanted to learn about us and was genuinely interested in our family and trip. My son had a birthday on St. Patrick’s Day and he gave him 5 Euros as a gift which made his day! The kitchen was great to be able to eat at the apartment, but we were also welcome to the continental breakfast. On two of our 4 mornings, Oliver made us eggs as well since Americans like eggs for breakfast. We liked having access to Kilkenny in 20 min but having a peaceful setting. The views from the kitchen were relaxing in the morning. (Last picture)

Lovely quiet location between Freshford and Urlingford, with easy access to Thurles. Lovely accommodation where we had the use of a kitchen and sitting area. There is plenty of room to park, comfy beds. We will definitely stay again.

The short inconsistency with the WiFi connection but this only lasted for a couple of hours. The following day Oliver rang the service provider and the WiFi issue was fixed and started working as usual.

Oliver offered us some continental breakfast like cereals, bread, coffee , tea bags & milk plus orange juice. I appreciate the free breakfast, not every Air B&B offers this service. So to Oliver and the rest of the staff at Kate's Rest. I say a big thank you. My Ensuite room was clean, comfy, there's even a microwave, tea electric kettle and tea trays all on the table. my short visit to Kilkenny was memorable. There's a very good view of the valleys outside my window which is very class and calming.
