The Coach House is a meticulously renovated 18th century stable block nestled in the spectacular valley of the River Nore, one mile away from the beautiful village of Inistioge. We are registered with Failte Ireland and have been awarded 5 stars.
It is in a private & secluded courtyard setting, but with close access to plenty of local facilities in nearby Thomastown (3m) and Kilkenny (12m).

The property itself has been lovingly restored to the highest specifications with hand-crafted oak woodwork and natural stone throughout. Clean, light and spacious, it sleeps 8-11 people in two double bedrooms, one with a sofa bed and thee other with a single bed, a twin bedroom and a master bedroom with king-sized bed, an en suite bathroom and a balcony overlooking the valley. An extensively equipped kitchen, including a broad range of herbs and spices, opens out onto a breakfast patio which overlooks the private garden. At the end of the sunroom the back door leads out to 6m² deck with which is the perfect hangout spot to relax and unwind. There is also a gas BBQ beside the deck.

There is a downstairs shower room, a utility room with a washer and drier, and a large conservatory that leads to the two vaulted downstairs bedrooms. Upstairs, the comfortably furnished sitting room has a wood burning stove and a selection of DVDs and Cds as well as satellite television, Bluetooth speaker and WIFI. All duvets, bed clothes and towels are inclusive, as are light and heat.

The local village of Inistioge is a delightfullly picturesque setting on the bank of the Nore with a number of traditional pubs, cafés and restaurants. It is the perfect location for hikes and country walks, especially in the grounds of the dazzling Woodstock Estate gardens.

Nearby Thomastown has an international reputation for its arts and crafts, boasting a variety of studios and workshops to visit, galleries and exhibitions, an artisan chocolatier, cafés and numerous pubs where one can unwind with a pint and some live music.

There are no less than four golf courses within 5-10 mile radius including the famous Mount Juliet Hotel where one can indulge in a spot of horse riding or fly fishing.

    This cottage was amazing. Charming, clean, cozy, decorated amazingly and our host, Dan was so welcoming. The grounds are absolutely beautiful as well. And we can't forget Cocoa and Ziggy who greeted us with wagging tails the moment we arrived! Would definitely recommend staying here.

    There is so much space on the property and the location is perfect, out in the country between Kilkenny and Waterford.

    Everything was awesome. The only downside was the heater wasn’t working. However the owner did come by to get it going. Otherwise everything was great

    Excellent property and location. River across the road. The only negative was the water pressure and toilets needed additional water to flush, but the house is old, so, somewhat expected.

    Wonderful stay in the Irish countryside - beautiful views surrounding the property. Short ride into Inistioge and easily in reach of Kilkenny. Dan was a wonderful host - checked in on us after we'd experienced some car trouble. Home is super clean and comfortable, and has everything you need.

    We spent a wonderful weekend in this lovely converted Coachhouse and we were lucky to get beautiful sunshine each evening which we enjoyed sitting out in the courtyard. Inistioge is a small but very picturesque town and a great base for exploring Kilkenny.

    The perfect place to begin our Ireland tour. Suffered some cool temperatures due to end of season timing.

    The owner has transformed an old mill into one of the most unique and beautiful places I’ve stayed. This house is very creatively designed and was extremely comfortable. The property itself is gorgeous. The cows came to visit in the evening and I’ve never seen stars so bright. A bit off the beaten path, and the nearest town was pretty closed up since it wasn’t summer, but otherwise everything was great!

    Charming country home. We loved the space for our multi generational family of 11. Children enjoyed the outside area, lots of room to run around. The property had everything we needed. The owner Dan was very hospitable and easy to communicate with. We would definitely recommend this property.

    What a magnificent home and property. This place was magazine perfect. Daniel’s family property was just spectacular. The moment you drove up to the property we all knew it was going to be great. Outside the property looked like an old world Irish stone farm house and coach house. But inside we had all the high end modern conveniences. The property grounds were manicured and cared for perfectly. Daniel was the perfect host and we had everything we needed including a nice warm fire and then some. Staying there made our trip extra special. Thank you so much from the McNamara’s
