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.

Fab cabin!
We recently stayed in ‘Clover Cabin’ and I couldn’t fault it! It’s absolutely gorgeous. It’s fully equipped with everything you could possibly need for a break away. The cabin itself is so comfortable, warm and cosy. The hosts Fergal and Annette are lovely and couldn’t do enough for us during our stay. The location is excellent....a 15 min drive from the bustling city of Kilkenny which is always a hive of activity and has plenty to see and do! We loved our stay and hope to visit again soon!

Outstanding
Myself, my husband and 3 children aged 5, 16 months and 3 months recently stayed at clover cabin. It was everything I'd hoped for and more. Fergal and Annette had thought of everything for us even including baby gates! The freshly baked scones on arrival was a lovely touch and fergal was most helpful on arrival. I cant fault our stay and my only complaint is that it simply was not long enough!! We can't wait to come back already! Thanks guys!

The perfect getaway
This has been our 2nd visit and definitely won't be our last. We love to stay here. The cabin is amazing and location is perfect. It is an ideal break for families or couples. The detail is the cabin is amazing, it is kept very well and so is the land around it. Fergal & Annette are so nice and very helpful. You won't be disappointed if you stay here.

Little gem
This was my 3rd time to this little gem as always the owner Fergal was there to greet us. This cabin is spotless clean and cosy. They garden is kept immaculate even the grass looks greener than home. My kids had so much fun and freedom felt like a real holiday so relaxing having a cuppa on the porch while the kids happily played. Perfect for the current climate that you feel like your away but without the risk of mixing with others. Highly recommended

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. ​
