Kilkenny Ormonde Hotel
Nice stay went to go book a second night but told me we couldn’t but could book it online no problem. But only after we got told no available rooms had made our mind up we choose not to book online and left. They lost out as it was a family stay.

The Forest at Mount Congreve Gardens
The huts and gardens were fantastic. The huts had everything you needed and were clean and tidy. Loved sitting in the hot tub at night watching the bats!
