With some terrific day trip options available in the surrounding area, renting a car makes sense. Without one, it’d be much more difficult to explore all that Enniscorthy, 18 miles away, has to offer. National 1798 Centre, Enniscorthy Castle and Delta Force Paintball alone make the drive out worth it. Kilkenny is another terrific option. It’s 20 miles away and has an array of intriguing things to do. Kilkenny Castle, The Hub and Butler House are only the start.
