Ireland

Castleiney sits between Thurles and Templemore in County Tipperary, connected by the R498 to the N62. Most folk arrive from Thurles, just 12 kilometres southwest, while longer journeys use the M8 motorway via Junction 6. Dublin's about 140 kilometres away, taking roughly 90 minutes on the M7 and M8, while Cork is 100 kilometres south on the same motorway. The N62 offers an alternative route from Athlone and the Midlands. Electric vehicle drivers will find about 18 public fast charging points locally, with more options in Thurles and Templemore. The town sits within the historic barony of Eliogarty, once part of the vast Butler family estates.
