Private, fully equipped galley, comfortable furnishings, warm and engaging host and the best accommodations we've encountered on our around the world trip .
We had a wonderful time with our children at this beautifully restored barn. Kids loved the rabbits as well as Mark and Margaret and the nearby Woodstock Gardens. Hope to visit again. Thank you so much, Mark and Margaret!
Beautifully restored coach house in great location
Friendly knowledgeable hosts, excellent house in a quiet village near the great historic sites and hikes of the area. If you are looking for a place in the Irish countryside to unwind thatâs still close to everything, this home in Inistioge is a great choice.
We enjoyed our stay very much. Very good location for exploring, by car of course. Very comfortable! The small town of Inistioge has a beautiful park by the river with a 10 arch 12th century bridge.
The coach house is the coziest cottage with a gorgeous view of their forested property, especially from the lens of their âgreenhouse foyerâ. Walking distance the most beautiful little village of Inistioge where everyone was so hospitable and the views were breathtaking. The owners are entirely the most lovely people to chat with ever, and the Epitome of hospitality and kindness. I would absolutely book another stay with them, but for much longer next time.
What a beautiful place, lovely homeowners (Maggie and Mark), and peaceful stay! The home itself has everything you need-well equippedâŠnot to mention the plethora of books to read! This was convenient as a pivot point to other site seeing options and nice enough to want to stay in. Thank you for sharing your beautiful oasis!!!
Mark and Margaretâs coach house was ideal for us. We instantly fell in love with all of its charms. Itâs located perfectly to create a home base and welcomed us comfortably after long days of exploring. Inistioge is a gorgeous location. If youâre looking for a long weekend with quietly stunning scenery or a home away from home, this is where you need to stay
Rustic, beautiful, property with amazing hosts. Lovely old old coach house been remodeled into two bedroom two bathroom home with all amenities included. Close to all kinds of little town towns and close to bigger towns a short distance away. One of our best vacations yet.
We stayed for 29 days. The hosts treated us like family! We needed converters for our C-Pap machines, cell phones and iPads. Immediately, Mark got us what we needed. We left for several days each week. Mark and Margaret turned the heat off to save energy consumption.
The cottage was very comfortable. It was located for us to easily travel around the Republic.
Mark and Margaret Dunne were wonderful hosts. We shared meals together and swapped stories of life in the US and Ireland.
Beautiful coach house with lots of history and charm!
Loved staying here! Mark and Fran were sweet hosts. Home was only 20 min. from New Ross which was a sweet little town. My only suggestion would be if they could store a bit more basic supplies (toilet paper, towels, maybe coffee and sugar) so that for a couple night stay we're not having to go out and shop for little things like that. Other than that it was completely gorgeous and enjoyable!!
2 adults', 2 children (6,8) had more than enough space in this comfortable, restored country home full of history. Mark and Margaret were so friendly and welcoming. We wish we had stayed longer. Seriously considering moving there... We will see you again when back in Ireland. Thank you so much!
Our three night stay here was wonderful. It is situated on lovely grounds. Margaret and Marc are super hosts - very welcoming, and responsive to our queries. The only thing we failed to notice when booking the cottage was that heat is an additional charge. It was a surprise, but we sorted it out. I would definitely recinnebd this place and if back in Ireland, I would love to stay here again.
Everything about this cottage is fantastic. Itâs roomy and comfortable. Close to walk to village for pubs and food and a 10 minute drive to thomastown for groceries. A fabulous place to make home while visiting Irelandâs beautiful sights.
Maggie and mark were great hosts. So kind and accommodating.
Definitely recommend!!
Thank you so much!!
We were greeted by our hosts as if we were old friends. Mark and Margaret made themselves available whenever we needed them but respected our privacy, and made us feel very welcome. The stone cottage is well furnished, cozy, and extremely comfortable. The nearby area is very centrally located, and there are great attractions in the vicinity, such as the Woodstock Gardens, Jerpoint Abbey, and Kells Priory. Although we made this our base for ten days, we still wish we could have had more time to explore. We would definitely return again!
We love this property and the hosts that live on site. It is charming and feels like home. The comfy beds with the heated mattress pads are so cozy. We stayed here in March and had to return. The location is perfect! Close to the village but on a lovely property with an orchard, gardens, cute bunnies, outdoor grill area and a garden gazebo. . Sleek and modern it is NOT but if you love charm, stone walls with two story beams, loft, books and comfy furniture you can curl up on in front of a fire...then you will love the Coach House. Hosts Margaret and Mark are friendly and absolutely engaging.
As described.. Hosts were very welcoming and seemed like great people. Beautiful spot.
Beds were VERY uncomfortableâŠmattresses need an upgrade!
Our mistake: we didnât realize one has to drive to Thomaston for any food, pubs etc.. 15 minutes.. small country road with scary fast cars and trucks. Stressful driving. No dining in Inistioge. Did not go anywhere in the evening as a result. The property is lovely.. minus very sore backs in the morning!!
Liebe Margaret,
durch die sehr genaue Anfahrtsbeschreibung war die Anreise einfach. Es hat an nichts gefehlt, den offenen Kamin mit Holzfeuerung haben wir sehr genossen. Gute Lage fĂŒr AusflĂŒge in die Umgebung, kurze Entfernung zu sehr gutem Pub, um den Tag ausklingen zu lassen. Bridget hat uns gut betreut.
Danke, Rolf, Renate und Andreas
Margaret was a wonderful host and this property was just what we were looking for during our travels. It was cozy, we loved the town, and we could drive to cities for the day. Great experience overall, would highly recommend this property.
Margaret and Mark were so welcoming and we had a couple of lovely chats about the history of the Coach House and the restoration efforts. They were helpful with recommending sites to visit and things to do. The accommodations were so comfortable and very well-appointed. Just such a great place to relax and recharge. We'd definitely stay there again!
We spent three lovely nights at St Columbâs Coach House and were warmly welcomed by our hosts. The surroundings were beautiful and we felt as if we had stepped back in time. Thank you for a wonderful stay!
