Nestled into the hillside, 3km outside the picturesque village of Inistioge, Rose Cottage enjoys absolutely breathtaking views over the River Nore
Rose Cottage accommodates parties of 6 to 8 guests for family holidays, friends getaways and corporate team building exercises. The Cottage comes with the unique offering of a private chef and dining room in the adjacent extension so as guests you can opt for meals to be specially prepared and tailored to your needs for your stay.
The Cookery School provides a menu of classes to include in your stay, including Irish dishes to take home and a structured 4-day programme for aspiring cooks and TY students to participate in as groups and enjoy the accommodation while they learn each day.
A Monday-to-Friday, hands-on week for small groups of Transition Year students and friends. Eight practical classes, real skills, a recipe book for life.
Comfortable country rooms, a proper breakfast cooked in the same kitchen, and the quiet of the valley at the end of the day.
Foraging, baking, markets, medieval Kilkenny and the Nore Valley on foot. Tailored packages for visitors from further afield.
Every meal made from scratch and eaten together around one long table.
Organic where we can, local where we can, wasted never.
A full-colour recipe book and a certificate to take home with you.
Small groups only, so nobody is ever lost in the crowd.
