We have stayed with Antoinette and George before and we love the place. The views over Waterford are spectacular and the whole town is but a few minutes walk from Sion House. Within the house their is a stunning collection of many interesting and some rare artefacts, a sort of free museum! The house itself is steeped in history going... more

Unfortunately the rooms weren't ready when we arrived at 6.30pm despite having phoned twice to confirm our arrival time - Perhaps the owner had been out all day. We were plonked down in... more

George and Annette are really friendly from the moment they greet you to... more

I can see some people liking this place, but we didn't unfortunately. Certainly it has several things going for it: nice view over wateford, gardens, historic 17th century house, nice couple running it, good breakfast, price was right. But the inside smelled dusty and was strangely decorated. We wouldn't stay there again, but I looked in their guestbook and clearly... more

Lovely place; fascinating history; one question to the proprietor gave us an hour's answer; a bit tricky to enter the driveway; the view from the hill is stunning, especially with a tall ship in the harbor. more
