                                Exceptional Retail & Hospitality Opportunity Less Than 200m from The Rock of Cashel
A rare opportunity to acquire a high-profile retail and hospitality premises occupying one of Cashel's most prominent locations — at the junction of the Dublin Road, Ladyswell Street, and Moor Lane, right in the heart of the town centre. This landmark position places the property less than 200 metres from The Rock of Cashel, one of Ireland's most iconic heritage attractions, which welcomes over 400,000 visitors annually.
The property benefits from substantial passing vehicular and pedestrian traffic and enjoys direct access to the Rock of Cashel Car Park with the Bru Boru Heritage Centre in close proximity as well, both of which are key destinations for tourists and locals alike. Its commanding corner position at a major junction linking the town to the M8 motorway provides exceptional visibility, prominence, and accessibility, making it ideal for a wide range of retail, hospitality, and mixed-use purposes.
Set over two spacious floors, each of approximately equal size, the building extends to a total of c. 5,000 sq.ft. (464 sq.m.) and includes a private courtyard to the rear. With dual frontage and access from both Ladyswell Street and Moor Lane, the property also benefits from excellent views towards The Rock of Cashel, enhancing its appeal for hospitality, retail, or tourism-related enterprises.
Historically, the ground floor operated as a retail unit, whilst the first floor was in use as a restaurant, with earlier layouts incorporating private residential accommodation also. Crucially, no part of the structure is listed, offering complete flexibility for reconfiguration or redevelopment to suit a variety of future uses. The property is currently vacant, allowing for immediate occupation or refurbishment. Given its zoning and past uses, the premises would readily lend itself to retail, café, restaurant, residential, boutique accommodation, or cultural/tourism ventures, subject to planning permission.
Located within a short stroll (c. 200m) of The Rock of Cashel, this property enjoys one of the most strategic and visible positions in the town centre. The wider Cashel area continues to grow as a vibrant tourism and heritage hub, supported by year-round visitor numbers, travel guides, a strong local business base, and its excellent connectivity — with the M8 motorway just 1.5 km away providing direct access to Dublin, Cork, and Limerick. This is a rare opportunity to secure a landmark retail and hospitality premises in a location that combines strong commercial potential with unparalleled tourism exposure.
