LOCATION
THE GOLDEN VALE - IRELAND'S FINEST FARMING HEARTLAND
Nestled in the heart of County Tipperary, the Golden Vale is widely regarded as Ireland's most fertile and picturesque agricultural region - a landscape of rolling green pastures, gently undulating hills, and rich limestone soil that has sustained generations of farmers. This is the land that defines Irish farming at its best: productive, natural, and timeless.
The Golden Vale stretches through Tipperary, Limerick, and Cork, but it is here, in Tipperary, that its character truly shines. The land is famed for its exceptional grass-growing capacity, providing perfect conditions for dairy and beef farming, while also supporting strong tillage and equine enterprises. The limestone-based soil, mild climate, and reliable rainfall combine to create a natural balance that produces
lush pasture and remarkable yields year after year.
Farms in the Golden Vale are more than holdings - they are part of a proud agricultural heritage. The region is home to many of Ireland's most respected dairy producers, stud farms, and family-run enterprises, all benefiting from an environment that is as beautiful as it is bountiful.
Beyond the land itself, the Golden Vale offers an exceptional quality of rural life. The nearby towns of Cashel, Cahir, and Thurles provide all modern conveniences, while the M8 motorway ensures swift access to both Dublin and Cork. It's a place where tradition and progress meet. Where modern agriculture thrives amidst history, community, and natural beauty.
To own a farm in the Golden Vale is to hold a piece of Ireland's most cherished landscape - land that has earned its name not just for its fertility, but for its enduring value and timeless appeal.
Rockwell Farm is located a short distance from the picturesque town of Cashel in County Tipperary. Cashel lies just off the M8 motorway, which connects Dublin to Cork, making it very accessible - roughly an hour from Cork, an hour and a half from Dublin, and about 20 minutes from Thurles.
The town itself is dominated by the iconic Rock of Cashel, a dramatic limestone outcrop topped with ancient medieval buildings, including a cathedral, a round tower, and Cormac's Chapel. This landmark, visible from miles around, is one of Ireland's most famous heritage sites and symbolizes Cashel's deep historical and religious significance - it was once the seat of the kings of Munster before being gifted to the Church in the 12th century.
Cashel serves as a gateway between the north and south of Tipperary, linking the bustling market towns of Clonmel and Thurles. The surrounding countryside is quintessentially Irish - rolling hills, patchwork fields, and distant views of the Galtee Mountains to the south. Cashel has a strong local charm, with traditional pubs, artisan cafés, and a community that blends rural life with a steady flow of visitors drawn by its history and beauty.
