    • Brede - Verified booking

      Fantastic week as always in Kilkenny.

      House in a great location. 15 min comfortable walk into the city centre but only 5 mins drive from McDonagh Junction for a spot of retail therapy. Depending on walking capabilities the train station is only 8-10 mins walk too with several trains daily (Dublin Heuston on 1hr 20mins by train) There is a football pitch, all weather pitch and The Ken which is a Biodiversity area straight across the road with a relaxing circular walk around the perimeter. It is brilliant for those with kids who prefer some outdoors energy burning after sightseeing in the stunning city. The Orchard House bar and restaurant is just a stones through from the house with relaxed feel and delicious menu to suit everyone's tastes. The house was more than adequate for our stay, stocked with games, books, WiFi and lots of brochures for nearby attractions. House was spacious and well equipped with bikes and patio furniture in shed for use if required. Lots of towels per person per room provided and beds comfy and clean. It's a quiet area so easy to have a lie in or late breakfast in the garden and kitchen was fully equipped for any dining requirements. As a local to Kilkenny and bringing my children, husband and in laws home it really helped make it a relaxing & enjoyable holiday. Would recommended any age range stay at Mary & John's house in Lovers Lane as there is a downstairs double bedroom & full bathroom to accommodate any needs. I will definitely be booking again when I return to Kilkenny.

      Lovers Cottage is lovely little house to stay in.

      It's a good 30 minute walk in to Kilkenny, where you can find lots of places to eat and drink and of course the castle. It has easy access to routes if you want to explore further than the city its self. It has a fully equipped kitchen to prepare meals, washing machine, tv (there is a knack to get the viewing box working and we still aren't sure how to do it, it seemed to be more luck than anything) It has a lovely open fire for those chilly evening and you can easily buy kindling and logs from most supermarkets in the area. Spacious bedrooms with comfy beds. There cycles in the outside shed should you wish to explore the area by bike. The fresh daffodils on the table were a lovely touch. There's a lovely little nature reserve opposite the house and if you want to go out and sample the nightlife, it' easy enough to order taxi's My only niggle is the dog glitter that appeared during our stay if people have allergies to animal hair (we didn't have a dog with us, so definitely not from us) Overall, it is a nice play to stay and Mary kept checking in via email to make sure everything was ok for us.

      Lovely looking very roomy house.

      Chocolates we’re a nice touch. Bin had not been emptied by previous occupants. The light in main bathroom doesn’t work neither does one of the landing lights - making the trip upstairs tricky in the dark. One of the arms of the rocking chair in kitchen is broken. The hob & oven could do with a deep clean as could the bathrooms. A bit alarmed to see that if the bottled gas runs out you are expected to purchase & fit a new one! Put me right off using it. Bedding is a very personal choice but both the duvets we used were heavy & cumbersome. The weather was amazing so walked everywhere including the nature reserve opposite. Ate out a lot - recommend The Orchard House up the road. Also recommend Dunmore Caves if you fancy a trip out of Kilkenny. Kilkenny itself is lovely - there a number of walks you can do. Also recommend the Smithwicks tour, The castle & St. Canice cathedral were both well worth a visit.

      This was our third or fourth stay in Lovers Lodge in Kilkenny, we had booked the house for a week to attend a family wedding.

      The house was a really nice place to stay when we first booked it a few years ago but just now it is a bit tired and in need of some updating. The television is very difficult to use and we had no access to any more than 5 channels, we couldn't access any BBC, ITV or Channel 4 television for example. Our bedroom (the master bedroom) had an ensuite shower which worked only in a dribble and a lavatory which gave off a "sewagy" smell, our towels were clean but had the smell clothing can develop when it hasn't beed dried properly or quickly enough. All in all our stay was a bit disappointing this time but with some updating and attention the accommodation could be upgraded to be a very nice place to stay. Its unlikely that we will book to use the house again though.

      I was going to stay downstairs as I've had an operation on my leg, but the downstairs flush didn't work.

      So I ended up walking up/downstairs a lot.The bed is on a slant, the rubbish is not explained well. The rubbish is collected weekly, one week rubbish next week recycling. When we got there, the rubbish bin was full. Leaving bags out, meant the wind blew it around the garden. What a nightmare, upstairs shower is absolutely rubbish. No Internet, if cost us £95 on Internet. So happy the little ones didn't stay, it would have been a holiday from hell. The tv didn't have a lot of channels as stated and was tiny. It's a beautiful home, but for that amount of money, you would expect what you paid for. WiFi shouldn't be in add as its not included. I'm coming to kilkenny 3 times a year, but will be looking for somewhere else next time.
