What I like about Kilkenny is that there are beautiful walks good theatres and lovely restaurants. All with in walking distance..

Great welcome, great location at Carraig Rua bed and breakfast. Ideal spot for touring and walking to Kilkenny Castle and Smithwicks Brewery. Steeped in history St Canices Cathedral, which includes one of the few round towers in Ireland that can be climbed by the public and Rothe House and gardens, all these within 10mins walking distance. Bus and rail station is a 3 mins walk away.Fifteen minutes drive to Dunmore Caves .Wide range of restaurants and pubs only 5 minutes away that offer evening meals and traditional music. There is a series of linear walks along the river Nore that takes in the castle and surrounding areas. Lyrath hotel is only eight mins drive.
