St Mullin's

Discover picturesque St Mullins, situated at the endpoint of the Barrow Navigation. This charming, scenic village has been inhabited as early as the 7th century, when the monastery from which St Mullins’ name is derived was founded. 

Celebrate the end of the River Barrow Walkway with a warming cup of coffee at Mullichain Cafe, then take a short stroll through the religious sites of the village – from St Mullins Ancient Monastery to St Molings Well, there’s no better way to explore the history of the village. A little further down, you’ll find Blanchfield’s Pub, which serves up cool drinks, hot food and a friendly atmosphere, and there’s also The Motte and Bailey Holiday Rental, for those looking for a longer stay. Many choose to stop here before trekking the 60 km from St Mullens to Athy along the Barrow Way hiking trail, which can also be divided into shorter trails.
