Description

Niamh has described his/her home in English.

What you will love about this home

Our house is bright, airy and welcoming with its own private garden and overlooking a protected pond with resident ducks and swans. The house is in a small group of houses situated a 15 minute walk, or 5 minute cycle from the heart of Kilkenny. Kilkenny is a small city, voted by Conde Nast among the top 10 friendliest cities in Europe! It has everything a family could ask for-narrow streets with great shopping, a castle, a majestic river with walkways alongside, a thriving culture and arts scene, vibrant pubs, cafes and restaurants, and excellent sports facilities. The city is safe and easy by bike and by foot (we have lots of bikes). Kilkenny is just 90 minutes drive from Dublin airport, less than an hour’s drive from numerous beaches in Waterford or Wexford, and within 2 hours of Kerry, Cork or Limerick. We have 5 bedrooms-all with double beds (1 en suite). There are 2 bathrooms upstairs and 2 downstairs. There are 3 living spaces downstairs- a den area, a longe area off the kitchen and a family sitting room. You are welcome to use all our bicycles (5). We are happy to exchange cars also

What you will love about this neighborhood

Richview is on the edge of town and is quiet and welcoming. There are good footpaths and cycle paths into town and beyond, and car parking is easy in the city also (charge is usually 1.50euro for 2 hours parking). There is a public bus stop right outside and also access to a public bike share scheme, with electric bikes. The city is famous as a food and culture capital. The castle and the Castle Park is the gem of the city with km’s of walking paths and a great vibe. The Castle Park is connected to walkways along the river and you can walk off road to Bennetsbridge, passing lots of old mills on the way. There is an excellent public leisure facility, the Watershed. The surrounding towns of Graiguenamanagh, Inistioge, Thomastown and Bennetsbridge have lots of local crafts and great walks.

Additional information

Kilkenny is the festival capital of Ireland with a world class Arts festival in August, a food festival in October, a comedy festival in June , Rhythm and Roots festival in May and Kilkenomics in November.
Our area is nice and quiet with great neighbours and resident swans and ducks.
