The Old Convent

Nestled at the foot of the Knockmealdown Mountains, the Old Convent is a unique destination for those seeking elegant accommodation and Irish artisan cuisine, refreshing walks in the picturesque countryside and a convenient location to explore local antiquities and natural amenities. This elegant, adults-only hotel in a former 19th-century convent is 12.5km from the Mitchelstown Cave and 15.3 km from Cahir train station. The quaint rooms and suites feature pillow-top mattresses and down duvets.

All but one have sitting areas and some have separate lounges. Complimentary hot breakfast is served in a dining room with evening meals available. Stroll through the mature gardens and stop for a swing in the hammock, relax by the fire with fresh baked goodies and tea, or curl up with a DVD or great book from our collection. Hide away from it all at The OC!
