Claim this listingStaying in Bunclody
A quiet river town where the Slaney and Clody meet at the foot of Mount Leinster, a natural base for walking the Blackstairs Mountains.
Bunclody sits at the confluence of the Rivers Slaney and Clody, which flow together under an old granite bridge right in the town, with the Blackstairs Mountains rising immediately behind it and Mount Leinster, at 790 metres the range’s high point, dominating the skyline. The town’s name, Bun Clóidí, simply means the bottom of the Clody, a nod to its position at the meeting of the two rivers. For a period under British rule it was known as Newtownbarry, before reverting to its original name in the twentieth century.
As a base, Bunclody suits anyone keen on walking or simply on quiet scenery rather than a packed sightseeing schedule. The Clody Valley’s looped trails, including the Craan Loop and the Long Lane Loop, thread through the foothills with Mount Leinster as a constant backdrop, and the town itself, straddling the Wexford-Carlow border, sits within easy reach of Enniscorthy, Kilkenny and the rest of the southeast for anyone using it as a stop on a longer tour.
Things to do near Mon Petit Cottage
Mount Leinster and the Blackstairs Mountains
The high point of the Blackstairs range at 790 metres, Mount Leinster rises directly behind Bunclody and is a well-known spot for hill walking and, from its summit, hang-gliding, with wide views over the surrounding countryside on a clear day.
The Clody Valley walking trails
A network of looped walks, including the Craan Loop and the Long Lane Loop, follows the Clody Valley into the Blackstairs foothills, giving an easy way to get into the hills without committing to a full mountain walk.
The river confluence and old bridge
The meeting of the Slaney and Clody rivers under an old granite bridge in the town centre is a pleasant, low-key spot and the source of the town’s name.
Touring the southeast
Sitting on the Wexford-Carlow border, Bunclody is within reach of Enniscorthy, Kilkenny and the wider southeast, making it a workable stop for anyone touring the region rather than staying put in one town.
Getting to Bunclody
Bunclody lies on the N80, around half an hour from Enniscorthy and closer to an hour from Wexford town or Kilkenny by road. Bus Éireann services run through the town connecting it to the surrounding southeast, though a car makes it easier to reach the walking trails in the Blackstairs Mountains around it.
Booking Mon Petit Cottage direct, and what the rating means
A real, assessed b&b
Mon Petit Cottage holds a 5-star b&b rating under Fáilte Ireland's National Quality Assurance Framework, assessed against the bedrooms, bathrooms, breakfast and welcome rather than self-declared. It's an independent signal you can trust before you book, separate from any platform's own review score.
No fees, no middleman
Ring the owner, or use the contact details on this page, and arrange the stay with the house rather than through an app. No booking fee added to your bill and no commission taken from the owner, so the room rate you agree is the room rate you pay.
A better stay, direct
Owners answer the questions a booking platform never will: whether the room at the front is quieter, how early breakfast can be served, or where to park for a few days. Speaking to the house directly is how B&Bs in Ireland were booked for decades.
