My husband and I arrived absolutely exhausted after traveling to Ireland overnight. Helen graciously made us coffee and chocolates, and finished cleaning our room in a hurry (we hadn't let her know we may be arriving before typical check-in time) so that we could rest before exploring the town further. The room was clean and comfortable and the breakfast was... More

We stayed for four nights in September, 2011. Helen greeted us with a cup of tea and made us feel very welcome. Our room was spacious, clean and comfortable. Helen & Liam gave us great ideas for sightseeing in the area and suggested pubs and restaurants that would fit our needs. A very special extra favor- Liam went with me... More

Pinecrest was our first stop on our trip and everything was excellent. Our room was spacious and the Irish breakfasts terrific. The location was very convenient for walking into town. Our hosts were very friendly and seemed to know everyone in town. They steered us to the very entertaining local show “The Good Old Days”. Bob and Kathy

The host and hostess were welcoming and friendly. We enjoyed a large, clean room with a modern bathroom en suite, and an excellent "full Irish" breakfast. The B&B is located in a quiet neighborhood, yet only a ten minute walk to the charming town of Kilkenny, and the price was reasonable. We HIGHLY RECOMMEND this B&B!! Donna and Tom

This b&b definitely ticks all the boxes. The hosts are warm and friendly- very approachable if you've any questions or queries. The rooms are large and clean, far more spacious than b&b's I've been in before. The b&b itself is just under a 10min walk from the town yet is in a quiet area. The breakfast was excellent. Really couldn't... More

Although Helen and Liam were friendly and accommodating we were very disappointed at the cleanliness of the rooms. We are two couples traveling together and both of our rooms were not very clean. Lots of mold in the showers and it seemed that the sheets in one of the rooms had an unlaundered spot on the bottom sheet. The second... More

Two couples, traveling Ireland by car, stayed in Pinecrest two nights on 9 and 10 September 2011. It was exactly what Rick Steves said it would be. Liam and Helen were friendly and knowledgeable. The rooms were large enough and clean. The B&B was far enough away to be quiet, but still an easy walk from the center of things.... More

Very friendly host and hostess. Very large and clean room and bathroom. Comfortable beds. Quiet neighborhood but within a short walk from the city center. Very good Irish breakfast.

We stayed at Pinecrest for one night and had a very good time. It is very well located, at walking distance from the town center. : you can park your car easily and visit Kilkenny from there. The room was spacious and quiet. Breakfast was the traditional Irish one. The landlords were very nice and gave us various recommandations for... More
