What an absolutely amazing place to explore! The Abbey ruins are amazing and I was in ore of the site all the way round.

Bridgetown Priory dating back to the 13th century. Near Castletownroche, County Cork. A beautiful and peaceful place with so much history. Free to visit and no crowds. On the day of our visit there was nobody else around for the hour we spent here.

It's a lovely historical place to visit for tourists

Free parking, easy to find, informative displays and FREE!

Wow, unbelievable spot. Managed to be there by ourselves and just walked around the area for what seemed to be an eternity. Beautiful landscape with just the sound of birds and running water to accompany you.

Most fascinating historical site when is very well intact. Delighted to have seen it.

Gorgeous peaceful location. In a pasture now. Much larger than we imagined! An old lady with 2 cats lived here last, around 100 yrs ago. Worth a stop if in area

It was well detailed now with signs explaining information on the abbey .it's so beautiful I wish you could touch the walls and see events that happened and what went on there I'm sure one day you will be able to

Free access. Clean territory. There is a small parking place.

Very nice ruins of an abbey. Lots of information notices on various parts and functions of the Abbey

Completely free to walk around. Fantastic site with information signs around the place

Completely self-guided. The signage could use some TLC. We had the place to ourselves. Beautiful ruins with interesting back story. Amazing example of medieval construction. Hard to believe they (are?) were still burying people there in 2002. The graves have to be dug by hand because they're INSIDE the walls of the abbey.

A very interesting place we stumbled upon. Its a ten minute walk around with lots of info boards and it's kept well.

Nice find. Well maintained with a series of informative signs

Old, old, old... we stayed near here and had the advantage of having one of the locals tell us about it. Browse leisurely. The architecture is pretty incredible.

Lovely historical place to visit and a big enough ruin to walk around. finish it off by a walk by the river...

I would love come back there

Absolutely beautiful place to spend a few hours. Clean, interesting and very peaceful. A lovely walk along the Blackwater river below. Very well worth a visit. I've been twice and will definitely return at least a few more times.

A hidden gem. So much to explore!
