La propiedad — St. Anthony's
St. Anthony’s is a straightforward, family-run 3-star on the main road into Dungarvan. The lobby feels like a proper Irish guesthouse: dark wood, a coal fire in the cooler months, and a reception desk stacked with local leaflets. It suits touring couples and walkers who want a clean, quiet base within walking distance of the town centre and the Waterford Greenway. No frills, but the breakfast is solid and the staff remember your name.
Crónicas de Dungarvan
Dungarvan grew around a 12th-century Anglo-Norman castle built by King John, whose substantial remains still sit on the harbour. For centuries it was a busy fishing port and market town, and its long main street still holds a traditional weekly market. The town’s most dramatic modern shift came with the opening of the Waterford Greenway along the old railway line, turning a quiet backwater into a cycling and walking destination. Today Dungarvan balances its maritime heritage with a relaxed arts scene—Seanachie’s pub does live trad music most weekends, and the old quayside has been smartened up for strolling.
