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.
If you have submitted a review for a holiday rental property, we may also ask that you provide us with proof of your stay to ensure that your review is attached to the correct rental property.
Holiday rental reviews collected via the VRBO website (formerly Homeaway) and syndicated to the Tripadvisor website are not currently subject to Tripadvisor’s standard moderation processes.

Great escape
Loved our stay at Clover Cabin. Great to find a place family centred with lots to do for young kids.
Place was spotless and had all we needed. Hosts were very friendly and had good communication. Would definitely stay again.

Fantastic getaway
The most amazing tranquil & peaceful cabin to enjoy some downtime but yet only 10minutes from Kilkenny city and all it’s attractions. We stayed with our 4 kids from baby to teen and everyone loved the place.. highly recommend and would definitely be back! The climbing frames in the garden were definitely a bonus!!
Thanks Fergal

A brilliant weekend at Clover Cabin, Gowran, Co. Kilkenny
We had a wonderful stay at Clover Cabin! It was total bliss! An absolutely beautiful place for a relaxing family break. The Cabin and surrounding garden are beautiful. Fergal and Annette have thought of all of the details and necessities. It's a credit to them both. We would highly recommend it for a tranquil break. Plenty to do for adults and kids alike. So peaceful yet still only a short drive to plenty of amenities.

Superb in every aspect
Second stay, equally as good as the first one. Fergal and Annette are perfect hosts, there when you need them but never intrusive. The cabin itself is top quality with everything you could need. Fergal made sure the fire was lit before we arrived so the cabin was warm and welcoming. There is a bit of a problem 'though - there is only one Clover Cabin, so advise book ASAP or you will miss this exceptional high quality experience.

Excellent stay-the ultimate family retreat
We spent the weekend in the beautiful Clover Cabin with our 1.5yr old son. We had such a lovely break and the property couldn't have been more perfect. Lots of space and close to Kilkenny too.
A warm welcome from Fergal who was the ultimate host, close enough to help and offer advice on the area but also let us to our own devices. Cabin has everything you need for a comfortable stay and we can't wait to return again soon. Thank you Fergal and Annette

About the neighbourhood
We’re just a ten-minute drive from Kilkenny city’s many attractions, and a short skip to Gowran Park Race and Golf Course. It's also a great base for exploring Tipperary, Wexford, and Waterford.
If you’re bringing the family, there’s loads for your little ones to do at the cabin itself – sandpits, a tree house and play area.
There are two covered deck areas, meaning you’re good to go even if the Irish rain decides to fall. The garden is planted with native trees and features a pond, encouraging lots of flora and fauna to the area.
We’re located just 5km from the M9 linking Dublin to Waterford. Gowran is a stop on the main Dublin to Waterford bus route, with buses running 10 times or more a day.
