Reviewed Aug 21, 2026We've spent three nights at Avlon House B&B and had a wonderful experience. Our room was very spacious, spotlessly clean, and equipped with everything we could possibly need. Breakfast was delicious, with a great selection of options to choose from. The bed was extremely comfortable and the room was very quiet, so we were able to relax and sleep perfectly after our long days exploring the area. The location is also very convenient if you're planning to visit places such as Kilkenny, Glendalough and the Rock of Cashel. We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend Avlon House B&B. Thank you for making our time there so pleasant!
