This Cistercian monastery was founded c. 1200 by William, Earl Marshal on lands held through his marriage to the Irish heiress, Isabella de Clare. This abbey, founded as a daughter-house of Tintern Major in Wales is often referred to as Tintern de Voto. The nave, chancel, tower, chapel and cloister still stand. In the 16th century the old abbey was granted to the Colclough family and soon after the church was partly converted into living quarters and further adapted over the centuries. The Colcloughs occupied the abbey from the sixteenth century until the mid-twentieth. Eircode: Y34 KR64

Tintern Abbey was founded by William Marshal c. 1200. Known as the Greatest Knight, Marshals impact is visible all across the south-east. From the Colclough Library the visitor has a wonderful view across Bannow Bay. The Abbey was founded for the Cistercian order and the monks lived and worked there for centuries. After the dissolution of the religious houses the Abbey came into the possession of the Colclough family. Knights, monks and scoundrels, law makers, law breakers and custodians, Tintern Abbey had them all. Eircode: Y34 KR64

A Cistercian Abbey which has been partially restored. Visitors can participate in 45-minute guided tours of the property to view the remains of the nave, chancel, tower, chapel and cloister. There are lovely walking paths all around the grounds and the "Tintern Tea Rooms" cafe/restaurant serves lunch and pastries also.
