Summer Holiday







15th June – Adare – Glen of Aherlow via Cashel

Leisurely morning leaving Adare around 10:00 for the Rock of Cashel.

Despite the inclement weather, the first time it really rained whilst we were doing something the visit to the Rock of Cashel was very good as we had a proper guided tour.

Found a ‘homely’ and very popular place for lunch and whilst we intended only having a light lunch in view of our aim to eat at the restaurant at the campsite tonight we ended up having lasagne and chips (me) and a burger and mashed potato and veg (T) not so good tho’ the warmed carrot cake made up for it, a little bit anyway.

Left Cashel heading back to Tipperary and then turned off for the Glen of Aherlow, which is where Ballinacourty House Caravan and Camping park is. Headed up into the hills and came over a peak and were met with this spectacular view (see photo). Every geography teacher’s fantasy!

Arrived at the campsite, which has an award winning restaurant and was nestled at the foot of aforementioned mountains.

After a cup of tea I went for a very long walk up into the forest behind us whilst Tina had a little kip as she had a headache and was tieid.
