Our Story
Butterfly Valley Glamping is a unique luxury camping experience located in an area known locally as the ‘Happy Valley’ of Thomastown. Located about two kilometres from Thomastown in the heart of beautiful Kilkenny countryside, the glampsite overlooks the woods and the river Nore.
This intimate site offers luxury bell tents, wooden pods and a vintage caravan. All have comfy beds, that will convince even the most reluctant camper of the benefits of enjoying the outdoors. A converted wooden lodge accommodates a fully equipped kitchen/dining/chill out area where tea/coffee and board games are available. Also in the lodge are our luxury bathroom facilities. An outdoor BBQ and play area allow you to reconnect with the outdoors. At night a campfire area allows stargazing and toasting marshmallows, while sipping a cold beer while the sun goes down.
We are located within easy access of Thomastown in a secure, secluded site. We are also centrally located to explore the Sunny Southeast with Kilkenny, Waterford and Wexford within easy reach.

Weekend Family Break
This was an absolutely fabulous place to stay particularly with small children. They where free to run and play on the site as It was pretty much closed off and they had such fun. The facilities are spotless and everything you need is their. This was our first time trying something like this and It won’t be the last. Much better than your standard hotel break my wife and I are delighted to have found this hidden gem.
Fabulous family trip
We recently visited with our children and had a brilliant time. The facilities were excellent and our cabin was perfect! Highly recommend to those with young families.
If you love the idea of reconnecting with nature, this is the Glampsite for you!!
Mary, Just to say, thank you, we had the most peaceful and enjoyable time. The vintage caravan was perfect for us, the beds are so comfortable. Your glamping site is so quirky and the views are beautiful.
We will definitely be back.
