Hemma Grove - A Songbird haven

Kilkenny

Hemma Grove - A Songbird haven, a property with a garden, is set in Kilkenny, 11 km from Kilkenny Castle, 13 km from Kilkenny Railway Station, as well as 19 km from Mount Juliet Golf Club.

I booked Hemma Grove last minute and just for one night but it has left such a lasting impression. The farmhouse has been restored with extraordinary care and attention—every detail feels intentional, from the decor to the beautifully preserved character of the original building. Dee kindly accommodated our very late check-in on Friday night, which we were so grateful for. We had to leave early the next morning, but in that short time we were struck by how comfortable and calming the space is. The beds were exceptionally comfortable, and the large walk-in shower added a real sense of luxury. What stood out most was how the home honours those who lived there before—through carefully restored doors, artefacts, and design choices that feel respectful and considered. We were genuinely struck by the work that Dee and Billy have poured into this place. Everything has been thought of, and it shows. This is a place of great serenity, surrounded by trees and wildlife located beside Dee and Billy’s home. A very special place—one that needs to be experienced to be truly appreciated. Thanks so much.

Nice quiet enough location view of Jerpoint Abbey, and I'd recommend visiting the abbey. Close to Thomastown and Kilkenny town. The stove is good for heating the place in winter. It's a nice cosy kitchen and living area. Perfect size for a couple. The air fryer is great and I had never used one before. Hosts had prepared the place very well with everything ready to make tea with biscuits, plenty of fuel for the stove. The house was nice and clean.

We had a fantastic stay with family at Knockreagh farm cottages. They were well kitted out with everything you could ever need for a family stay. They were warm and cosy with comfy beds. We loved the hot tub and sauna and bar. Mikes communication was without fault. Highly recommend this property and wish Mike the best with his endeavours.
