Sam... I don't know about these B&B's but if you don't get replies soon, I suggest that you indicate "B&Bs in Avoca... Inistioga and Innis." That way those with more experience are more likely to respond. If you go to County Antrim, NI I recommend the Meadows B&B in Cushendall tho!!!! you can visit the Glenariff Forest Park.... magical.. Have a grand time... but for the moment... ttt

sam,<BR>We stayed in sheepwalk house in june. The room was one of two double superior rooms for 69 us dollars. I was very happy with it, the view from our bedroom window was beauitful you could see arklow bay. The hosts were very friendly and helped us with things like where to eat, and what to see. <BR>The house sits on a hill and was built in 1727. The little town of avoca is close by and so are the avoca weavers, they had the best buys of any where we visted in Ireland. <BR>We had to ask for a hairdryer it was not in our room. I found it to be a very nice place.<BR>Hope this helps, Diane<BR>

We have stayed at the Cullintra House for two days each for five years now. We really enjoy it there because it is a unique experience. We especially enjoy meeting others at Patricia's wonderful candlelight dinners. The room we choose is the loft in the barn, but to be honest, although the room is huge, the bed is a futon. The room in the barn below the barn is smaller but has a more comfortable bed. You should also be aware that dinners can start very late (10:30 or later) and that there are many cats. Inistioge is a beautiful area and the grounds at the Cullintra House are wonderful to explore. Please feel free to email me if you want more information.

We stayed at Cherrybrook country house in Avoca on Sunday Sept 15. It is really nothing special. The room we were in was incredibly small. You could probably do better than that one. I wouldn't stay there again. There is a really nice B&B in Gorey (Wexford) that is not too far from Avoca -maybe 45 minutes away, and it is Hillside House ( you can find it on the net by looking through the B&B site at www.ireland.ie. It was a delightful place with a great breakfast and our room was gorgeous. It is one I would highly recommend.

I'll second the poster who said not to stay in Avoca. Although it was the setting for Ballykissangel, it's tiny. Just one street of tight little shops, Fitzgerald's pub, the church at the end and a nice woolen outlet. You can do it all in about an hour. We also had difficulty finding the turnoff, and we were with locals.<BR><BR>We based in Dalkey and really liked it.
