Waterside

Counties Wexford, Waterford, Carlow & Kilkenny


Overlooking the boats tied up along the River Barrow, this inviting guesthouse occupies a converted 19th-century grain store. Its 10 renovated bedrooms have exposed timber beams, and the cafe/restaurant (mains €17 to €24.50; open March to October only) is well regarded for its interesting modern Irish menu and its regular 'After Dinner Live' music acts featuring anything from jazz to bluegrass.
