About Borrisoleigh

Families have access to primary schooling in the town, while secondary education and a wider range of services are available in nearby Thurles and Templemore. Day-to-day shopping is straightforward, with local convenience stores, trades and services complemented by larger supermarkets and retail in Thurles. Pubs and cafés provide much of the town’s social life, while restaurants and additional evening options are found nearby.
