About Ballyogan House

Ballyogan House nestles on the banks of the beautiful River Barrow close to the medieval town of Graignuenamanagh in County Kilkenny – the sunny South East of Ireland. This restored period farmhouse (circa 1850) is set on 50 acres of woods and pasture bordering the river. With wonderful views of the Blackstairs Mountains from all rooms, the house is comfortably furnished with a large conservatory to relax in. There is a sitting room for guests with TV, games and books. Robert & Fran Durie welcome you to their family home and assure their guests of peaceful and tranquil surroundings.

Ballyogan House Rooms

The house is fully centrally heated, and accommodations consists of four comfortably appointed bedrooms –

One family room: The Primrose Room
Two twin rooms: The Bluebell Room and The Foxglove Room
And one double: the Lilac Room
All have shower en–suite.

Traditional breakfasts made with fresh local produce are complemented with a choice of continental style fare. There is a large garden, woods and the riverbank for strolls. 4.5 Kms from the medieval riverside town of Graignamanagh with its beautiful abbey Church and within easy reach of historical Kilkenny, the ferry port of Roslare and Waterford (and its famous glass factory). The renowned Mount Juliet golf course is also nearby.

Ballyogan House Location

Coming from Graiguenamanagh

From Graiguenamanagh turn right opposite Duiske Abbey in centre of town. There is a little sign on the wall on the left for New Ross but it’s easily missed!  Bear left for New Ross and continue out on that road for 4.5 Kms (2.8 miles) when you will see a road sign for a turn to the left (it looks like an up–side–down Y) and just after it the sign for Ballyogan House. Turn left (carefully as it is a sharp turn). This short lane will bring you to our back gate. Turn right and you will come to our front gates almost immediately

Coming from New Ross

Cross the Barrow at the Ferrycarraig bridge bear left and after 3 Kms (1 mile) turn right to Graiguenamanagh (R705).  Drive 8.8 kms (5.5 miles) via The Rower and after a viewing point over the river the road surface changes to rough grey and you will see a sign for Ballyogan House.  Bear off right down slip road, careful, it is narrow and there is a bend at the top.  At the bottom (it is very short) you will see our brown back gates.  You turn right and will come to our front entrance gates almost immediately.

Graiguenamanagh, Co Kilkenny is one of the most attractive and unspoiled small towns in the South–East of Ireland. Nestling under Brandon Hill on a bend in the River Barrow, the town, like the river, has meandered its way through the centuries since it's origin as a Cistercian abbey in the early 13th century. The town is off the beaten track but is still readily accessible from all the major entry points to Ireland –two hours drive from the airport or Ferry ports in Dublin and only 45 minutes drive from Rosslare Ferryport.
