Woodford Dolmen Hotel
Kilkenny Road, Carlow, R93 N207
About
The Woodford Dolmen is the hotel on the Barrow, three kilometres south of the town centre on the Kilkenny Road, with 81 bedrooms on ten acres of grounds that run down to the river. The grounds have woodland walks, a path out to Woodford Island and a fairy garden for small children, the Draíocht Glen. The Plum Tree is the bar and bistro. It was named Leinster's four-star hotel of the year at the 2024 Irish Hotel Awards. Being out of town is the trade-off: you will want a car or a taxi for an evening on Tullow Street, although Carlow Tourism says the CW1 town bus runs to Tyndall College, about 200 metres from the hotel.
