“An elegant Georgian home with a sublime prospect of the Rock of Cashel”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 August 2011

We were so warmly welcomed at Hill House, it was truly the best of that legendary Irish hospitality. Our rooms was beautifully furnished with a lovely selection of antiques, and the salon and dining room made us want to hang around for hours. Once we were settled in, it was difficult to leave, but luckily the stunning view of the Rock of Cashel -- which looked like it was just at the end of the garden -- was enough to tempt us outside for some exploring. The breakfast was wonderful as well.

“Best accommodations of our trip - excellent atmosphere and host”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 August 2011

This was a highlight of our trip. It was within sight of the castle and aloud for wonderful photos. The gardens were beautiful and the inside was spotless and very comfortable. The breakfast was exceptional offering virtually anything you wanted to make a fine breakfast. Best of all was the host, Carmel. She made us feel at home and offered friendly conversation and advice. If we visit Ireland again, we will surely stop in and stay at the Hill House - assuming it is still operated by Carmel.

Room Tip: All rooms that we saw were very nice and comfortable.

“A great place to see Cashel!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 August 2011

A wonderful, old Georgian home with wonderful views of the Rock of Cashel is the reward for booking with Carmel at Hill House. The home is beautiful and the grounds are perfect for relaxing. The Rock and the town are just down the hill and yet, your accommodation is nice and quiet. The breakfasts cannot be topped and Carmel is a warm and knowledgeable host.

“Simply perfekt”

person found this review helpful

One night, 3 people, 2 bedrooms, and everything went great from the booking until ( and including !!!)the bill.
Carmel is a wonderfull lady. always with a smile and always ready to help. The rooms are decorated the way you expect it in a nice old house, with an very good eye for detail and authenticity.
The situation is also perfekt for the Rock of Cashel and just a few steps away from the city of Cashel.
Thank you again Carmel., you made our first night in the Irish Country great.

“Our stay was too short!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 July 2011

We stayed for one night in July while on a quick trip to Ireland. Upon our arrival, we were delighted to learn that Hill House is at least as lovely in person as it looks in pictures. The house is lovingly preserved and the antique furnishings are both tasteful and comfortable. We stayed in the blue family room at front of the house and got a great night's sleep in the big four poster bed. Carmel was a great source of information about the Rock and the town of Cashel. However, she was not at all intrusive. We decided to splurge on calories and go for the "Full Irish" breakfast the next day, and were truly glad we did. The meal was huge and fresh and kept us going most of the day. Our only complaint about our visit was that it was just too short. Hill House was so beatiful and Carmel so friendly, that we wished we would have been able to stay longer!
