Property Overview

Our Dream Holiday Home in a truly Unique & Secluded location

Check out our reviews on Tripadvisor (just Google ' Riverside Bliss @ The Boat House ' ) then come and see why they made the movie 'Circle of Friends in our Village'! It's really very pretty indeed!

The Boat House is available as a B&B on a room by room basis and also as a 2-6 bedroom self-catered vacation rental, here at the Boat House we will do everything we can to make sure your stay is exceptional.

We have 2 Michelin-starred restaurants and a Jack Nicklaus designed golf course within 30 mins drive, but you probably won't want to leave our house as aside from the peace and tranquility here, we have some of the best Salmon fishing in Europe literally outside your bedroom window.

Why choose our house? Well, look at the photos and you'll see the scenery is truly spectacular, plus the house was conceived and designed by the former Chairman of the Crafts council of Ireland and his equally talented wife (Hi Mum :-)), and further I (Hi I'm Rob!) have reached No. 1 on Tripadvisor for another B&B/Vacation rental I owned in Chamonix, France.

I like to make sure you have the best possible stay, and will happily tailor any package you wish - from Golf tours to Fishing Licences and Ghillies, Limos to Camper Vans, Casual Breakfast through to Michlelin Star dinners, just ask!

“Simply incredible”

A beautiful house in a truly breathtaking location. We had a peaceful stay and it was in easy reach of Waterford, Kilkenny and surrounds.

“Best peaceful place in Ireland”

Love both houses on water very private! Stay 2 days was so great came back and stay another 2 days. We (mother and daughter) from Florida, like the feeling of home. One house (The Boat House) is a new modern lovely home and the other house that we also had the pleasure to see was the older family residence. While most bed and breakfast are older houses that have been converted, the Boat House is new and extremely rooming, so not a old home converted. The view from the window is WOW, river, waterfall, flowers, garden, ducks and if you want to fish or canoe or grill out.... This is the place! It would be great for private parties too. Service from Rob, the very handsome young guy and his very pretty girl friends was great. Breakfast grand. Both have background in either doing bed and breakfast or fancy dinner for years. They both are easy going and availably for whatever help you need or to give direction. They know the area, since Rob's family has had the family house there since he was a child. While other places we stay in Ireland seem to want our money, I got the feeling Rob like the company and being able to help others and making more friends then making a buck. If I were to live in Ireland, this would be the dream place for me. This truly gave me a feeling of what living in Ireland could be like and the easy going Rob made us feel right at home. Love it and would go back again in a heart beat.
