Serious style and comfort, and great dog-walking country

"We enjoyed a relaxing 4-night break at The (brilliant) Loft, and the dog came too - a bonus for all! Long walks every day along the nearby beautiful Barrow towpath, with expeditions to some of the lovely small towns and landmarks within an hour’s drive such as Thomastown, Inistioge, Borris, Graigenamanagh and the JFK Arboretum. Back tired and happy each evening to a roaring fire in the cosy Barn. Style and comfort don’t always meet, especially for dog-lovers, but here they most certainly do. "
