Pocket Guide: Clonfert Clonfert Cathedral Hotels

If you’re looking to get in touch with Ireland’s ancient history, than Clonfert Cathedral is not a sight to be missed. The current building dates back to the 12th Century, but is built on the site of a 6th Century church which was built by St. Brendan. It’s a humbling experience to visit the sacred building and feel its roots stretching back over 15 centuries from the present age.

The doorway of the church is an incredibly beautiful feature that’s worth noting. The arches around the door space are a series of six delicate moldings, featuring human and animal heads, plant designs and religious motifs. It’s a glorious example of the Hiberno-Romanesque style. The window arches on the east side of the church are also decorated in a similarly outstanding fashion.

Clonfert Cathedral dwarfs the tiny village it is situated in. The closest town to Clonfert is Ballinasloe and there are great transport links by car or bus between the two. Between the two areas there are many places to stay, from budget-friendly bed and breakfasts to luxury hotels.
