Irelands oldest Hostel & it's a 15th Century Castle!!
Foulksrath Castle is based 12 kilometres north from the medieval city of Kilkenny (halfway to Durrow).

Ghost Hunters have, in the past, visited the hostel and reported the best ghostly sounds of any place they visited in Ireland. Stories say the daughter of the original owner was killed, resulting in the belief that the castle may be haunted.
It is the ideal place to stay for a few days while you explore the many places of interest including heritage sites dating from the Iron Age through to the present day.
