We had yummy pizza and pints in Giltraps Pub in the evening and a very comfortable night's stay in our cosy pod. We needed an early start next morning for our 40k hike to Glenbarrow so a breakfast hamper was delivered to us at 8am by special request. Nothing was a big deal for the staff here and they really aim to please. We will certainly be back soon - hopefully for the Offaly Way! read less

The staff are well trained, friendly and will do anything and everything to make sure you're stay is everything you wanted it to be, from bringing you your cooked breakfast every morning(which is delicious) to their barbecue and platters for dinner. We were a big crowd so plenty of looking after us to be done but no problem whatsoever to Eleanor's great smiling staff to shane behind the bar who dealt with the banter and chaos our family bring when we go away. Great time had by all and we can't wait to go back 100% recommend for any age group Great place and brilliant staff little gem everyone has to experience. read less

All the staff were pleasant and looked after us very well throughout our stay. The facilities are excellent, newly developed showering and toilet facilities. Our cabin was spacious and very comfortable to sleep in and we were all given towels and bedding, we didn’t need to pack anything extra which was great peace of mind when planning our trip away. I would highly recommend their BBQ as the food was delicious! There was a wide variety of food and ensuring everyone was well looked after. Eleanor and John demonstrates excellent customer service and are very attentive in their roles and it was a pleasure staying in Giltraps- I would highly recommend their business to anyone that wants to experience the highest quality of glamping, have a drink in great surroundings or enjoying a delicious BBQ catching up with friends or celebrate any occasion at Giltraps. A wonderful asset to Kinnitty and I wish the Clendennens all the best in the future with their excellent business! Thank you for having us and looking after us all so well. Best wishes, BláithĂn Tynan read less

The bar has been extended with lovely 'inside-outside' inner area perfect for groups and watching sports on large tv. It also has lot of outside seating at the exterior and was very busy.
The food,drink+service was excellent.
Will happily return. read less

For lovers of incredible castles, bike trails, horse riding and more, Birr and Kinnity are full of fascinating experiences.
Glamping at Giltraps beautiful log chalets is intimate, cosy and peaceful. Enjoy the breathtaking views of the Slieve Blooms from your bed or veranda. A highlight for me was the delicious breakfast bap and hot drinks delivered to your door. Sitting, reading, peace and wonderful surroundings. Comfort in the wild. I'll be back with the kids for horseriding at nearby Kinnity Castle and a visit to Birr Castle. read less

In summary we loved every single thing about our stay, me and my husband stayed in one of the cabins, had everything we needed was comfortable clean and warm. Sheep, pigs and chickens on the grounds added to the glamping experience, amazing breakfast hamper each morning with their own produce..eggs were unreal. Had drinks in the village pub , visited slieve bloom and birr gardens. All in all such a good time and hope to get back next summer. read less
