Lismore

Pocket-sized heritage town on the River Blackwater in County Waterford, Lismore has a café and restaurant scene that punches above its size. Lismore Castle, a medieval structure that shaped the town's development, sits above the river, with the Knockmealdown Mountains close by. The town traces its origins to a 6th-century abbey founded by Saint Mochuda.
