We recently spent two days at Kilbawn House. After three days in Dublin, the rural location of this lovely home was a welcome reprieve from the noisy city. The view from our window was lush green countryside....beautiful! Elizabeth was an excellent hostess, tour guide and chef. From the minute we entered her home she was ready to assist us in... More

My only complaint is that we only booked one night at Kilbawn Country House. What a beautiful, welcoming home. Elizabeth was fabulous! She was happy to see us and immediately took us in to have tea and coffee and a chat. We were traveling with our adult son, and once she realized how old he was, she insisted on giving... More

This is a MUST. The rooms were large & comfortable. This home has a comfortable sitting room. The Hostess, was amazing. She is a true representation of all that is warm, welcoming and fun of the Irish people. We stayed at several B & B's during our week stay. This is the only place where we were welcomed with a...

Elizabeth was welcoming from the minute we arrived at the door. She sat with us and discussed our plans for the evening. She offered great touring and dining suggestions. The grounds are beautiful as is the surrounding area. The house and accommodations are spotless and extremely comfortable. Elizabeth is the definition of hospitality. After breakfast she sat with us again... More

Kilbawn house was our first stop during an 8 day whirlwind vacation through Ireland. We relied heavily on these reviews to book all of our stays and Kilbawn Country House definitely lived up to expectations. Elizabeth was a wonderful hostess who gave us travel tips and even led us to an out of the way little known tourist attraction. The... More

Located just outside of Kilkenny, Kilbawn is truly a country house right in the middle of horse country. Elizabeth is an amazing host! She was very friendly and offered great suggestions for nearby dining and sights. Rooms are comfortable and clean and breakfast was hearty. Also a great spot to look at the stars.

We have just returned from our stay at Kilbawn Country House and can honestly say it is the best Bed & Breakfast we have ever stayed in. The whole place was clean and homely and Elizabeth made us very welcome and treated us just like a family member. So much attention to detail and nothing was too much trouble. Beds... More

For our Honeymoon we made a trip through Ireland in Septemper 2011, were we stayed at Kilbawn Country House. We got to know Elisabeth as a real "Mama" looking after us so well. So she also booked all our following B&B's for us, the restaurant for dinner and so on. She delighted us with a rich und tasty homemade breakfast.... More

We were greeted with a friendly smile and offered tea and cookies. She helped us map out the rest of our trip and provided us with dinner reservations at a lovely restaurant. The rooms were clean and the grounds, beautiful. Breakfast was excellent! If I ever plan a trip back to Ireland, I'll stay there again.
