Things
to do
We
provide plenty of information for guests to our cottages on arrival
and also on our web pages.
The
Kilkenny and Waterford areas have many interesting and fun events
organised throughout the year.
Offering
miles of local nature walks, Croan's beautiful rural setting is
rich in places of interest to explore. Ireland's finest medieval
city and its arts and crafts capital, Kilkenny, is minutes away,
with a range of craft trails, historic gardens and cultural activities.
The Dunbrody emigrant ship (New Ross) and Waterford Crystal are
close by, as are the historic towns of Kells and Cashel. Dublin
can be visited by train or car.
Seaside
villages with sailing, sea fishing charters and watersports are
within easy driving distance. Excellent walking, angling, canoeing,
championship golf and horse racing are available locally as are
seasonal sports (hunting and game shooting). Shops, pubs and restaurants
2 miles. Waterford Airport 29 miles. Rosslare Ferryport 40 miles.
Our
cottages are in the south of County Kilkenny and this lovely area
is rich in places of interest to visit, including the Castlemorres
Demesne (virtually next door), medieval Kilkenny City (15 miles)
with its historic castle, and the beautiful monastic settlements
of Jerpoint Abbey (3 miles) and Kells Priory (3 miles). There
is a craft workshop trail to explore and Waterford Crystal is
20 miles away.
