About Terryglass

Terryglass is a small, attractive village in north County Tipperary, on the western shore of Lough Derg and within easy reach of Portumna and Borrisokane. It has a peaceful rural and lakeside character, with attractive village streets, a strong community atmosphere and a popular base for boating, fishing and walking. Everyday life is centred on the village and its local services, while larger shops, schools and other facilities are available in nearby Portumna, Borrisokane and Nenagh. Kyle Park National School provides local primary education, with secondary-school options including Portumna Community School and Borrisokane Community College. Road travel is the main transport option, with the R493 linking Terryglass towards Borrisokane and Portumna and onward connections to Nenagh, Birr and Galway; local bus services are more limited than in larger towns. The village is known for welcoming pubs and places to eat, while Portumna offers a broader choice of supermarkets, cafés, restaurants and services. Lough Derg, Terryglass harbour and nearby Portumna Forest Park provide excellent opportunities for boating, angling, walking and other outdoor activities, making the area particularly appealing to families and those seeking a quieter lakeside lifestyle.
