They spent the night at the Pike of Rushall.
A convoy of protesters is passing through the midlands to raise awareness soaring insurance and business costs.
Sean Kilkenny, who looks after the horses and carriages at Dromoland Castle, is travelling to the Leinster House in a horse and trap, to highlight those struggling to keep their business afloat.
He's hitting out at the government for not looking after tourism industry, and says he was advised to sell his horses to pay for a debt he didn't create.
He passed through Monegall, Dunkerrin and Borris-in-Ossory yesterday, before staying the night in the Pike of Rushall.
He's continuing his journey this morning - and says people are joining him along the way:
