Historic Kilkenny is approximately 30 minutes in a different direction with a great many restaurants, cultural activities & of course good shopping opportunities. Dublin is a mere hour away with all that it has to offer.
There are many local golf courses to welcome visitors, Baltinglass, Carlow, Athy & Mt. Wolesley in Tullow to mention a few. The Carlow Garden Trail has much to offer --- garden & woodland walks & renowned local Garden Centres. The National Stud & Japanese Gardens are well worth a visit.
