    3. Jim & Pete If your interested, when and if you do go to Cashel a must see is the interior of the Catholic Church. About 2 yrs. ago they finished a refurbishing it to original condition. It's a remarkable work of art. I've been there many times. An excellent B & B, Rockville House, is just below the Rock Of Cashel run by Pat & Anna Hayes.
