A little Bit About Cashel

About Cashel


Cashel is a small market town in County Tipperary, Ireland. It has a rich history and many sights - including The Rock of Cashel - an outcrop of limestone that has been the home of kings for hundreds of years. With a population of only 3000, it has been unspoiled by tourism and is a good example of a 'real' Irish town. Despite having such a small population, there's always something to do - local sports matches are held every day, and the local bars have live bands almost every day of the week.
