The ambience was second to none. We were amazed by the decor and layout. Great renovation job, we highly recommend to anyone who is looking for a unique stay.

"Unique" is the key word. If you want to experience something different, this is the place! The layout is unusual because it's a converted church. The heating is like a covered church (we built a fire both nights which made it even more charming), with the heated floor being a welcome feature. The grounds, with the Fall leaves in abundance, make it a storybook setting. We dined in Waterford both nights, so can't comment on the more local options. The beds were very comfortable. Host was great.

What a unique experience! Cozy inside with a charming wood burning stove to keep warm. Well stocked kitchen. Does have some spiderwebs & occasional crawlies (only mentioning because we have a squeamish child with such things). Quiet location but close enough to town for restaurants, etc. Would recommend!

Wonderful space - so unique, but also very comfortable. This is an ingenious restoration that is beautifully rendered. You're only about 20-25 minutes outside Waterford by car - an easy commute and there is plenty of parking right by the river. You're not far from the coastal towns of Ireland's Ancient East, which are well worth the drive. This is a great central location and such a fun place to stay. We loved it!
