The Rock of Cashel

About the author

Raised in the Wicklow countryside, David is country through and through. He loves reading, especially Sebastian Barry and Roddy Doyle, and cooking (burning?) up a storm in the kitchen. You might find him bouncing around a tennis court on weekends before retiring to a quiet pub with friends for a long lazy afternoon. David writes about sport, food and nature and is fascinated by the Titanic. Favourite Walk:The Lambe Hill (for thinking) and Beal Ban beach in Ballyferriter (for romancing).

    The girls and I had an amazing day touring the castle and neighboring abbey. You can feel the history of this beautiful place. We dreamed of restoring and raising the huge Celtic high cross at the back of the castle. Definately worth the hike up to the school Rock of Cashel from where we parked near the abbey!!

    Can’t you just, Jennifer.

    I went there recently with my Mum and 7-year old sister who spent the time following the guide all over the site, wide-eyed at hearing the story of the place.

    I love the view of Hore Abbey, too. And to think, Cahir Castle is only down the road.

    Lucky Tipperary…
