The Best Attractions In Gortnahoe

  • 1. Kilcooley Abbey Gortnahoe
    Kilcooley Abbey is a Cistercian abbey close to the village of Gortnahoe in Tipperary, Ireland. The abbey is located within the grounds of the Kilcooley Estate. This abbey dates from 1182 when Donal Mor O’Brien granted lands to the Cistercians, to build an abbey here. The abbey which is a sister house to both Jerpoint Abbey and Holy Cross Abbey, is considered to be a hidden gem, tucked away in this remote corner of Co. Tipperary. The Abbey is found inside a private walled estate. After the Reformation, Kilcooley passed into the possession of the Earl of Ormond. It was granted to the English-born judge Sir Jerome Alexander in the 1630s and through his daughter, Elizabeth, it passed by marriage to the Barker baronets of Bocking Hall, the last of whom died in 1818.
