About Castledermot

Castledermot sits in County Kildare, 70 kilometres southwest of Dublin on the N9, where the Wicklow Mountains meet the plains. It's a handy stop for drivers crossing Ireland's eastern corridor, with the M7 and M9 bringing traffic from Dublin through Naas and Kilcullen. The town has about 30 public fast chargers for electric vehicles, making it popular with long-distance travelers. The real draw is the 14th-century Franciscan friary ruins, featuring a 20-metre round tower that still has its original stone cap intact.
