Rock of Cashel, Cashel

Phenomenal! It is one of the ruins that we enjoyed most! It is on a hill and the parking is at the foot of the hill. A short wait for the tickets (€8) and you are in! I would recommend the tour as the guide walks you through and tells the story of this grand structure. The old wall scripts are protected but visible to the public. It is amazing how much is preserved for us to see and enjoy. Definitely take your time and walk around. There is another ruin down the hill which is also amazing to visit. You can take the short cut through the grass field or you can take the paved walk around the Cashel grounds. Recommend both! Great site!

Went in late September, it was beautiful and very fascinating. Chapel tour was the highlight, it’s very ornate inside and has a rich history. Favorite castle in Ireland because of its historical significance and impressive architecture.

After having lived near it for so long, was only after I immigrated and returned for a holiday when I visited it for the first time with my partner, and was both intrigued and proud hearing the detailed history from the lovely tour guide Patrick. He had a wealth of information and patiently answered all our questions, even offering to take photos of us. Can't recommend it enough, for both locals and tourists.

Great to be able to see this up close. We had an amazing sunny day which made the experience very pleasant. But probably on an overcast day or even a rainy one would make this experience creepier and still feel amazing. Recommend walking the grounds and even going to the abbey at the bottom of the hill where it was deserted and really cool to see too. That part is free if you just wish to go there.

One of the largest castles in Ireland, so can't be missed. As such, it can be a bit busy so expect a crowd. The hill walking up is a bit steep, so keep mindful for seniors or physically challenged folks. But once you're up, it is amazing to see an 800yr old castle - and one of the best parts are the views out to the countryside. You will not be disappointed!
