Kells Priory
Kells Priory is one of the largest and most impressive medieval monuments in Ireland.
The Augustine priory is situated alongside King's River beside the village of Kells, about 15 km south of the medieval city of Kilkenny. The priory is a National Monument and is in the guardianship of the Office of Public Works. One of its most striking feature is a collection of medieval tower houses spaced at intervals along and within walls which enclose a site of just over 3 acres (12,000 m2). These give the priory the appearance more of a fortress than of a place of worship and from them comes its local name of "Seven Castles".

A home away from home!!!! Out of all the B&B's that we stayed during our trip to Ireland (3 in total) , I can say this was the best of all. I would definitely recommend this place and if I ever were to go back I will not look elsewhere...savg1978 bronxville, ny (via Tripadvisor)
