“Love love love!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 October 2011

person found this review helpful

Aard Oakleigh was our favorite B&B by far on our trip. June (the proprietor) was awesome, and has put so much thought and care into every small detail. The room was the largest and most comfortable that we stayed in on our trip, and the bathroom was wonderful as well (offering a full bath!). The yard/grounds were stunning, with fruit trees and trellises, situated in a quieter area slightly off the beaten path. Breakfast was wonderful, with the best food on our journey (wonderful jams, scones, free range eggs, variety of teas, etc). A short walk from a nice local pub called The Corner House, and just a short drive from Kilkenny. We would highly recommend and look forward to returning!

“A quiet night in the country side”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 October 2011

The Aard Oakleigh B&B was a great choice just a few miles from Kilkenny in Bennetbridge. The room was excellent, the bed was comfortable, the breakfast was a great full Irish Breakfast. The lady who ran the place was friendly and very helpful. The closest restaurant was recommended by the owner in the next town of Thomasville.

Room Tip: Get the room at the rear of the house overlooking the garden and pasture.

“A great home base for exploring the Kilkenny region.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 June 2011

While this was our last stop during our nine day tour of the southeast region of the country, we wish we could have extended our stay in the quaint village of Bennettsbridge at June's Aard Oakleigh home. This B&B was the perfect location to explore Kilkenny, Thomastown and Waterford with many talented local craftsman (potters, candlemakers, leather works, chocolate candymakers and of course pubs). The accommodations were outstanding, the food was delicious and June was a gracious hostess!

Room Tip: Call the inn and talk with June directly

“Beautiful and Quaint!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 June 2011

This place is in a wonderful location, just out of Kilkenny, really enjoyed our stay here. The rooms were comfortable and quite large with large bathroom as well.
June is a lovely and very helpful host - her restaurant recommendations were fantastic! We would happily stay here again when in the area :)
