Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

    Another amazing place to visit while in Ireland! The history, size, and the amazing grounds were a delight. Truly enjoyed this old castle.

    Limited but gorgeous menu, always outstanding and seasonal food. Delicious cakes and coffee and the staff and family are so welcoming and warm. Highly recommended! Larry and Margery

    After spending the morning in Kilkenny we stopped here for lunch. Plenty of parking hardly anyone visits many picnic tables and an excellent view , as we can not get enough of old stuff, especially castles. The attraction is not life changing however worth a visit.

    At first sight, it might not look like anything significant. Particularly since all but a tower remains of what was once a tower house of considerable historic importance. The fact that it has history, which includes it also having been a leper hospital, dedicated to a Saint, and located in a historical township, makes its apparent omission from most visitor information saddening and somehow disrespectful.
