A little community called Tallow is located on the Blackwater Valley Scenic Drive in County Waterford’s most western region, in a deep valley. One of the oldest horse fairs in Ireland takes place every year on September 3rd in Tallow. The distance between Tallow and Lismore, a vibrant historic town with a 17th-century hilltop cathedral and an impressive castle with gorgeous Jacobean gardens, is only six miles. Everything is available here, including live pub music, recommended restaurants, arts and crafts, and a renowned golf course nearby. There are countless beaches, bays, and cliff tops to explore on the breathtaking coastline between Youghal and Dungarvan. Visit the city of Waterford, which is the location of the renowned factory that produces fine crystal and offers a wide selection of stores, bars, and restaurants along its quays and side streets. Visit the local castles, historic homes, or breathtaking gardens, play golf, bike, stroll, or ride, or just unwind and take in the serenity.
