Baileys Hotel Cashel

8/10 Good

"Nice location with breakfast for early opening of Rock of Cashel exploring before bus crowds."

Talbot Hotel Clonmel

10/10 Excellent

"Nice staff, fantastic room and shower was well designed with mixer valve before you get under the rose. Breakfast choices were also brilliant, one of the best I've seen. My only criticism would be tv remote which isn't that important but no buttons to use a sleep or alarm function. Top hotel however."

Cahir House Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The room was very comfortable, we were sad to leave. The bar and restaurant are excellent. The front desk staff was amazingly helpful. I highly recommend."

Cashel Palace Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"My favourite hotel on our recent trip around Ireland. A true 5 star experience. The grounds, the main building, the rooms are all stunning. Well maintained property with lovely staff. The breakfast was delicious and very special sitting looking up at the Rock of Cashel. If I find myself in Cashel again I will definitely be back."

Luxurious Country Farmhouse, Idyllic setting with Fabulous Mountain views.

"decent hotel for the money"

Old Style Traditional Irish Farmhouse with mod-cons- WIFI included as standard

10/10 Excellent

"We had a perfect trip to an area that we already know rather well. The location and views are spectacular and Thomas and Tina could not have been more congenial hosts.This was, very much a home away from home experience, with a great deal of space and all the facilities you could hope (and then some).Thomas was really accommodating in terms of both our arrival and departure and there were all sorts of household essentials waiting to make settling in that much easier. I deduce (perhaps errantly) that it was Tina who had equipped the cottage with superlative scones, milk (for that essential cup of tea) and orange juice.My children loved it and so did I.Thomas is the most engaging host and is (rightly) proud of everything which the accommodation and the area have to offer. If you get the right sunlight the open skies are incredible. We shall be racing back there and I should urge you to do likewise!Thank you, very much,Thomas and Tina (and we look forward to seeing you, again, very soon)."
