This village has the unique distinction of having won both the National Tidy Towns Competition and the Nationwide CARE Award in the same year (1980). Newtowncashel village is specially featured for its stone walls built with artistry and the well kept Garda Station, Church, National School and Hertiage Centre. A number of fine outdoor sculptures designed by bog-wood sculptor Michael Casey that create a unique atomosphere in the village is prominent in its recent highlights. The restored Abbey of Saints Island to the left, and Barley Harbour on the right add up to the excellence of this village. Providing a pleasant amenity for walking, boating, fishing and picnic along the Lough Ree shoreline there situates Elfeet Bay nearby.
