But Taghmon is always worth a visit and has good food eateries and places for a sociable drink.
Whether it is for your Christmas shop, a hair appointment to ensure that you’re looking your best for your Christmas party, or some furniture to get your house looking its best for guests over the busy festive days to come, you’ll find it all in Taghmon, the town known for its bakery and for its fascinating history.
Historical records show that Taghmon has been inhabited since 595 AD. Saint Fintan Munnu was granted land there in circa 597 by a chieftain, Dímma mac Áeda Croin who later became a cleric and was buried among the monks at the monastery.
His followers resided in the area then known as ‘Achadh Liathdrom’, which translates as ‘ the grey field on (or near) the ridge of a hill’.
The picturesque village never looks better than during the festive season.
The buzzy atmosphere, long established business and friendly staff make it a special experience. There is none of the hassle of parking tickets or traffic congestion and there is a laid back, stress free vibe which is a perfect antidote to shopping in a large town or a city.
Every service you could require is available.
So for a country town to shop in you cannot beat historic Taghmon this festive season.
You will be truly surprised by the retail offering there.
