Am from the area, houses look nice and have a play ground for kids. the hotel is another story, leisure centre is a joke, gym is tiny. pool is fine. hotel food leaves an awful lot to be desired. have tried it a couple of times and each was worse than the previous. the bar is nice but has absolutely no atmosphere in it. On the plus sidde it is only 10 mins drive from Carlow town and 5mins drive from Tullow.
