First class place. Regal room of dark woods and attractive linens, comfortable sitting room and airy and elegant dining room. Great hospitality. Great attention to detail from flowers on tables to amenities in room. The pictures on their site don’t do it justice- it is even nicer more

In June, I took my 18 and 13 year old kids on a trip to Ireland. We stayed at a number of B&Bs. I had several segments where I did not book in advance. However, I booked Newlands for four days, a bit before going into Dublin to finish our trip. The property is very nice and was one of... more

The best b&b I have ever stayed in. Great place to relax, and the perfect location to see everything you need to see in that area. The room was massive, the bed perfect, the breakfast was great. We were given access to the internet on the owner's computer and had a great time!! Once you are there, drive to Kells,... more

This is one of the finest B&B's I have stayed in. It is located a few minutes drive south of Kilkenny, on the way to Kells. The rooms were very large and comfortable. The decoration was of a very high standard with incredible attention to detail. Everything you could need was provided for you, free bottles of mineral water every... more

Newlands was extremely easy to find, though you might be advised to contact Mairead or Jimmy to get directions.

The best part was the size of the bed! My husband is 6'4" so a king size bed is wonderful! Good size bathroom also. The bedroom itself was huge. The house is about 10 minute drive outside of Kilkenny so a car is helpful altho' the owners will arrange for a taxi. They even dropped someone off in Kilkenny one... more
