Is The Artist's Barn Right For You?

Discover why this cottage is ideal for different types of visitors

For Families
The upstairs snug provides dedicated entertainment space with PlayStation 4, Smart TV and DVD collection. Board games are available for family time. The open-plan layout lets parents supervise easily while cooking. Three bedrooms accommodate families comfortably. Hill walks start from the doorstep for outdoor exploration. The gravelled outdoor area offers safe play space. Rock of Cashel (14.3 miles) fascinates children with medieval history.
For Couples
This property works better for groups than couples due to its size. Four bedrooms and multiple bathrooms suit family gatherings rather than romantic breaks. The countryside setting offers peaceful walks and rural views. Cashel sits 14.3 miles away for historical exploration. Cork city (61 miles) provides galleries and museums. The spacious layout means couples would occupy only a fraction of available space, making smaller properties more suitable.
Pet Friendly
The Artist's Barn does not accept pets. The property maintains a strict no-pets policy for all bookings. Dog owners should look for alternative accommodation in County Tipperary that welcomes animals. The countryside location would suit dogs with nearby hill walks and open farmland, but the owners do not permit any animals on the premises. This policy applies to all pet types without exception.

The Artist's Barn Reviews

The property was great. The only issue we had was the GPS didn't take us to the house but had us all over the area. On the positive we did meet a lot of very helpful, friendly locals who helped us find our way!
Everything was wonderful except the lack of curtains in the bed rooms, we were awake every morning when the sun came up which was annoying.
Michael
Had a wonderful week at the Artist Barn, great location for visiting Cashel, Cork,Kinsale, Cliffs of Moher, Galway
Dorothy
We had a wonderful stay at the Artists Barn. There were 2 families, 6 of us total. The cottage was spacious and had plenty of room for everyone. We had an easy time checking in and out. The owner included lovely, thoughtful touches for our arrival. The space is clean and comfortable. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would recommend it.
An amazing home. Beautiful kept. Clean . Everything you need and more. Views are stunning. Worth every euro. Was lovely to take the 3rd generation back to our roots. Pictures dont do this property justice. We will be back again. Thank you so much.
Thomas
Wer in der Region Tipperary eine Wohnung sucht, kann unbesorgt buchen. Viel Platz, sehr gute Ausstattung, komfortabel und individuell geschmackvoll eingerichtet. Bequeme Betten. Ruhig gelegen. Die kleinen irischen Straen verlngern die Wege zu den Ausflugszielen.
Beautiful place nicely decorated ,great location . Big rooms plenty of space.
Very enjoyable stay, every thing just perfect
Amanda
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at The Artists Barn! We had 3 couples..family and friends, 2 from England and 1 from the U.S. We were able to meet up in Dublin and then make two hour drive to Cappawhite which was our home base for the week. It was a great rural location to relax, but also to have easy access to so many nearby sites Aherlow, Blarney Castle & Gardens, Limerick, Cahir Castle and Louth Gur to name a few. The accommodations were very comfortable and the home was well stocked with everything you could possibly need! Thank you for a lovely stay!
Catherine
We had an amazing time at the Artists Barn. We really appreciated the basket of food on arrival and loved the house. It was a perfect place to celebrate my mother in laws 80th. She was born in Cashel and the location was ideal. We would definitely visit again. Many thanks
Louise
Fantastic place to stay, very spacious and well equipped. Nice little snug upstairs with games, TV and playstation which would be great if you have children. WiFi was excellent. Plenty of places to explore locally and a bit further afield. Good parking and space to sit outside if the weather is suitable! Nice views across open countryside. Highly recommended.
This was an amazing holiday house, not only was everything really clean but it was incredibly comfortable and perfectly located to visit the country side of Tipperary and Limerick. I would gladly stay again and totally recommend it
Jellie
Very nice house, well equipt, very friendly owner
Patrick
We have been booking holiday cottages in Ireland for many years and this was definitely one of the nicest we have stayed in. Everything we needed was supplied and the house was spotlessly clean. Mary and her family were so nice and on hand to answer any questions we had, and to help in any way they could. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here at Christmas 2023 and would hope maybe to return sometime in the future.
Josephine
We were visiting family in limerick and Tipperary so it was in an ideal location. Lovely house to stay in after visiting places and people it was very comfortable to return and relax at the end of the day .
A beautiful and practical house and highly recommended for anyone visiting the area.
Excellent property, cannot recommend highly enough.
We had a wonderful stay at the Artists Barn! Loved the accommodations and the location was perfect for day trips. Would recommend and would stay again!
Lauren
The cottage was a beautiful spot ! !! The only hiccup we had was the water heater but we figured it out
Allison
This property was beautifully maintained and comfortable. The setting and location were perfect for us to have our day trips and explore Ireland. There were 6 in our party and there was more than enough room for everyone to spread out and be comfortable. The boys loved the loft game area and I enjoyed all the extra touches. If I am ever lucky enough to return to Ireland, I would have to come back to the Artist Barn. Like coming home. Allison
Toilets could have a better flush. Not sure what was happening with dish washer. stuff on top shelf not getting cleaned
