2025 season was a cracker
The 2025 season has come and gone. We finished up at end of October and delighted to say 2025 was our busiest season ever. Graiguenamanagh continues to be a fantastic visitor destination for those who love the outdoors. Thank you to all our customers and our hard working staff that made last year our busiest year ever. The years have flashed by and 2025 marked 27 years since we arrived in Graiguenamanagh in 1998. It is brilliant to see Graiguenamanagh make so much progress as a visitor destination in recent years. Look forward to seeing you all over the coming months.
Waterside is located right in the heart of Graiguenamanagh, Co. Kilkenny. This medieval river town, nestled in the scenic Barrow Valley, is the perfect destination for hill walkers, cycling, fishermen, boating enthusiasts, and all those in search of a traditional Irish welcome. Waterside is a carefully converted 19th century granite corn store on the banks of the river Barrow.
Waterside Guesthouse, accommodation in Kilkenny, is run by husband and wife team Brian & Brigid Roberts. For the past twenty seven years they have welcomed thousands of guests to Graiguenamanagh and are happy to stop and chat with visitors about life in this quintessential Irish town.
