🚐 Pre-book an airport transfer →Getting Around
Cavan Town (Bus Station, Farnham Street) → Church View B&B (stop: The Cathedral)
💡 Pays with Leap Card or exact change — the driver can’t give change. Get off at the Cathedral stop, then walk 2 minutes up Hillview Road. It’s really bus no. C5 only; the C4 goes a different route.
Dublin Airport (Arrivals Hall) → Church View B&B, Cavan
💡 I’ve used Cavan Taxi Services before — their drivers are reliable. Book 24 hours ahead for a fixed €120 fare; walk-up can hit €150. They’ll meet you airside with a name board.
Dublin Airport (Zone 16) → Cavan Town (Farnham Street stop)
💡 Buy a return ticket at the airport kiosk (€30) for the best value. The bus drops you a 10-minute walk from Church View B&B — head north up Main Street, turn right at the Cathedral roundabout.
Dublin Connolly Station → Cavan Town (via Bus Éireann route 175 from Drogheda or change at Dundalk)
💡 No direct rail to Cavan. Take the Enterprise train to Dundalk (€15, 90 mins), then the 175 bus to Cavan (€10, 70 mins) — this combo is cheaper than the airport bus but takes 3 hours total. Best to avoid if you have luggage.

Top Attractions in Cavan
💡 The park's Sensory Garden, near the Bandstand, is a quiet spot with fragrant herbs and a small water feature—good for a break from the town centre. Free parking on Church Street.
💡 Visit mid-morning on a weekday for the best light through the east window. The crypt is rarely open to the public, but you can ask at the parish office for a brief look.
💡 The best views are from the southern edge of the lake, accessible from the R196 road—park at the small lay-by near the sign for 'Lough Oughter Viewpoint'. No facilities, so bring water and a map.
💡 The Red Trail is the shortest (1.5 km) and passes the most tombs. Bring good shoes—the limestone is slippery after rain. No parking fee, and dogs are allowed on leads.
💡 Admission is €5 for adults, but the gardens and Peace Garden are free to wander. Check their website for free family days, which happen about four times a year.
