Descrição
We are a family run guesthouse and cafe that have operated in Graiguenamanagh for the past 25 years. A husband and wife team, as well as our two daughters who pitch in and help during college holidays. We also have a number of local staff that are part of the team for the busy summer season. Our business is located in a small town on the banks of the river Barrow, County Kilkenny, Ireland. We have a 10 bedroom bed and breakfast, friendly cafe and retail area. We also run guided rowing holidays for rowing clubs coming from all around the world. It is a great destination for outdoor activity enthusiasts and the location will suit someone who does want to experience the Irish countryside. So we try to run a relaxed and fun operation especially with visitors and clubs visiting on a repeat basis. We enjoy having a workaway team from different nationalities that all coperate to make a great extended family. We still keep in touch with several Workaway staff that were here in previous years and great to hear about their travels.
