The town of Mitchelstown is situated just off the M8- the main motorway that links the cities of Dublin and Cork. From the roundabout on the northern side of Mitchelstown take the 3rd exit on to the Limerick road the R513, after about 2km veer left at a y-junction and stay on the R517 for approx 11km. Watch out for the old disused creamery building on your left and cross the narrow bridge. Once you cross the bridge take the immediate left. Stay on this country road until you come to a T junction. Turn left into Ballyorgan village.
