My wife and I stayed here one of the first nights of our honeymoon. The rooms were nice and cozy and breakfast was delicious. However, Katherine is what makes this place fantastic. She took time to suggest places to go and things to do all across the Southern Cost on our trip in addition to the places to go in... More

My husband and I stayed here for 2 nights and Katherine was amazing from the minute we walked into the door. We got into Kilkenny a little early and when we spoke to her she told us not to worry and come on over. Katherine showed us a map and all the hot spots to hit up on our 10... More

I was there two two nights, and Catherine was a charming, perfect host; she made me feel welcome the moment I walked in the door. The place was tidy and warm, and she offered all kinds of... More

Mena House was my first experience in Ireland with a B&B, and I must say I could not have asked for a better experience. Katherine greeted us with a warm smile and immediately gave me the feeling that all would be well (after a rather difficult first day of left side driving). She was a wealth of knowledge and could...

She was gracious, informative and went above & beyond to help me & my friend to find the best place to have dinner & music that night (Caragh Restaurant) & to help my friend find a place to buy her "curling tongs". Breakfast was wonderful and the whole... More

This was my daughter's & my first trip to Ireland and our first B&B experience. The room was fresh and comfortable, the breakfast warm & delicious, and Katherine's suggestions of what to see & how to get there was invaluable. Thank you, Katherine, for a great first experience! Rebekah & Peggy D.

First stop on our second trip to Ireland. Our lovely room was immaculate and convenient for touring the town. The breakfast room was lovely and the food was excellent. Katherine, the owner, was delightful and so helpful to us. This B & B was truly a find. We, by the way, used Exploring Ireland as our agent for booking the... More
