The stunning Barrow Valley region, which straddles the border of Kilkenny and Carlow, will take centre stage on national television this week as RTÉ Nationwide showcases the area's natural beauty and attractions.

It’s a welcome spotlight for local tourism, with the Kilkenny heritage town of Graignamanagh expected to feature prominently, alongside the nearby Carlow villages of Borris and St Mullin's.
