Paddy's Bar

The area around the pub holds all sorts of historic interest, including the traditional cottages of Licketstown (two minutes’ drive/ 20 minutes’ walk), 800 years of history at Curraghmore House & Gardens (25 minutes’ drive) and ancient sites like the Knockroe Passage Tomb (half an hour). There’s plenty of lovely scenery to explore too – perhaps with a walk on the Tory Hill Loop (15 minutes to the trailhead) or to Poulanassy Waterfall (15 minutes). You could also take a day on the Comeragh Drive, which takes you to some of the top spots along the coast and inland (Dungarvan, 40 minutes away, is a good place to start). After all those rural experiences, head into Waterford city (15 minutes) for a day exploring the Viking Triangle, visiting the Medieval Museum and taking a tour of House of Waterford Crystal. You could also set off from here to bike along some of the Waterford Greenway path, which runs for 46 kilometres along an old railway line.
