The Barrow Valley is a quiet and unspoiled area, much loved by walkers and little visited by tourists.
The river that meanders though is popular with cruise boats but also means there are miles of riverside paths waiting to be explored.

Yeats Country
Romantic Places | One Comment
WB Yeats is one of the most romantic poets ever and this is his ancestral home, a place he dearly loved and where he is buried.
Add lovely unspoiled countryside, good places to stay and eat and not too many tourists and it’s the perfect recipe for a romantic getaway.

Inistioge is a romantic village beautifully located on the banks of the River Nore in South Kilkenny which has been the location for several movies and TV shows.
High on a hill overlooking the town, Woodstock Estate has 1000 acres of walks and extensive gardens, though the house that once stood there is now in ruins.
