Frommers Budget Travel Guide
"Phyllis and John extend what one reader described as "the warmest welcome we received in Ireland." Their modern bungalow is set in mature gardens and 100 acres of farmland in a beautiful rural landscape. Just 4km (2.5 miles) from Cashel, The Chestnuts is an ideal touring base, with nicely appointed guest rooms and meals that feature home baking. In the village just down the road, traditional music is usually on tap".

Recently we had the pleasure of staying at The Chestnuts B&B, a country farmhouse in peaceful Cashel, County Tipperary, Ireland. We were welcomed by our hosts, John and Phyllis O'Halloran, with hot tea, home-made scones and jam. They were warm, jovial, charming and helpful, and "in the loop." Their farmhouse, with impeccably manicured gardens and grounds, provided comfortable, adequate en-suite rooms with a full Irish breakfast.

Looming over the town of Cashel is the imposing and awesome rock of Cashel, which can be seen for miles around. Tours of the castle are available. For day trips, The Chestnuts is a reasonable distance from Waterford, Cork and Blarney.
