The location was perfect for a trip to Kilkenny. Karima and Caroline were two of the nicest people we have ever met. They were so welcoming and extremely friendly.

There was nothing we didn't like.

Charming, comfortable and cosy - our little dog didn’t want to leave.

Lilac Hut is absolutely delightful - comfortable, cosy and well planned out for privacy. we especially enjoyed walking in the woods (accessed via a door directly from the property) and warming ourselves by the chiminea by candlelight at night. loved that it is pet friendly - our little dog didn’t want to leave!

Great place to stay off the beaten path, away from the town. Great scenery!

It was beautiful! The huts sit behind a castle!! How exciting!! The huts were clean and comfortable. The owners were so nice and personable!

The water didn’t stay hot long. It was warm but I prefer hot water. My husband said it was fine for him.

peaceful and nice stay in a lovely area

The hut is located in a lovely area and close to an pretty forest. It is very comfortable for a hut with all important necessities.

The light was going through the curtains, windows in the morning early, so you shouldn’t be too sensitive to light when you sleep.

It’s rather camping

the quiet, nicely decorated

it’s very very small, an Ikea bed/cpuch that you can turn into a double bed, thin mattresses thus not comfy bed it’s very close to camping, and for that absolutely overpriced the cabins are very close to each other, we had very loud neighbors who sat outside and talked loudly until way past midnight. it was like sleeping in a tent in somebody’s backyard.

Superb

The rooms we're exceptionally warm, considering it was -4 degrees the night I stayed there. I was worried on the way up, as I thought it was a "hut" or a fancy tent.

I highly recommend this accommodation. Spotless, Comfortable, All mod-cons. A great place to go to unwind while having the benefit of being <15 mins from Kilkenny. Great walks right there adjacent to the huts. The grounds are also fab for sitting outside. Lovely hosts - will definitely go back!

Great!

The hut is comfy, very clean and cozy, with a beautiful forest walk right behind it and a view on a castle-like mansion - very romantic! Each hut has it’s own little garden with a seating area, the kitchen is well equipped for two people, there is a one-plate cooker, some pots and utensils, a fridge, kettle, microwave - basically all you need for a short trip. We only used the Kettle and the fridge, they also have complimentary tea and coffee. And towels too! The location was actually perfect - very close to Kilkenny but also Carlow has some great spots to visit which was also close by! The room has a radiator and very hot and filtered water which is a huge bonus for glamping in the winter:) What was really great is that they recycle and there are small bins outside for each! And if there is anything else you need like a hair dryer or a board game you can just ask for it. Overall we had a great stay plus we love Kilkenny so we’ll definitely be back!

Fantastic comfortable accommodation in lovely location

Karima & Caroline our hosts were such lovely people and a pleasure to deal with. Very helpful and friendly, giving good tips on where to eat vegan food, so top hosts and thank you for your hospitality. We rented the three shepherds huts for the duration of our stay late August and they were all very clean, modern, comfortable with electricity and sockets to charge your gadgets. Nice ensuite bathroom - I note other comments regarding the shower but if you are careful and don't blast out hot water on full we managed decent showers up up to 5 mins, which is plenty of time. Great outdoor seating area to each hut with individual chimineas and a separate communal BBQ area. Next to Jenkinstown wood which has a lovely walk and also a deer sanctuary where you can hand feed the deer. Great location for exploring Kilkenny or further afield - we went to Wicklow mountains which is just over an hour away, plus lots of other places in Galway, Carlow, Tipperary & Waterford. We would definitely stay again as we did enjoy it very much.

Stylish huts in a gorgeous setting

Lovely little huts, warm and clean, beautifully decorated, peaceful and picturesque surroundings. Perfect for get-away-from-it-all break. The birdsong and greenery were glorious. Close to Kilkenny by car. Quiet, rural location.

No coffee! I had a bit of a crisis when I realised there was none supplied 🤣!! Perhaps a mini wrapped soap would be nice for the shower.

Beautiful place, quiet. Excellent for dogs and people just looking to relax

They are aware of it already I believe, but there is very little hot water for a shower! We'll definitely be back again so hopefully they get the chance to look at that, honestly perfect other than that ☺️
