Clashmore Neighbourhood Guide
Waterford
About Clashmore
Clashmore is a small rural village in west County Waterford, close to the border with County Cork and within easy reach of the coast at Ardmore. It has a quiet, close-knit character, with scattered countryside, farmland and the River Blackwater valley shaping the surrounding landscape. Everyday life is village-based and car-dependent, although Dungarvan, Youghal and Cappoquin provide broader shopping, services and employment options. Clashmore National School serves local primary-age children, while secondary-school choices are generally found in nearby towns, including Dungarvan and Youghal. Local amenities include village shops and community facilities, with pubs and food options available in Clashmore and neighbouring villages; Ardmore adds cafés, restaurants and a well-known coastal setting. Commuters typically rely on the N25 for access towards Dungarvan, Youghal, Cork and Waterford, with regional bus services available along the main routes rather than through every rural townland. Recreation centres on GAA, walking, local community activities and nearby beaches, especially Ardmore, while the wider area offers access to the Waterford Greenway and the heritage attractions of Lismore and Dungarvan.
