About Cashel

Cashel sits in Tipperary's Golden Vale at the foot of a dramatic limestone outcrop topped by the famous Rock of Cashel, Ireland's most spectacular medieval site. The M8 puts you straight through to Dublin or Cork, while local roads connect easily to Clonmel, Thurles, and Kilkenny. The Rock itself holds a 12th-century round tower, Cormac's Chapel, and Gothic cathedral ruins, once home to Munster's kings before the Church took over in 1101. The Main Street runs directly toward the rock, creating one of Ireland's most photographed views with medieval towers rising above Georgian shopfronts.
