About Killaloe

Killaloe was established during the 12th century by the High King of Ireland, Brian Boru, and has huge historical significance in that, at one stage, it was believed to be the capital of Ireland. Lying on the southern tip of Lough Derg, on the Clare-Tipperary border, and 18 miles north west of Limerick city, it is the busiest fishing and boating centre in the Midwest region. From here it is possible to navigate all the way to the new Lough Erne Waterway and in the summer Killaloe is packed with boaters and holidaymakers.

Lakes Retirement Village is situated in the heart of historic Killaloe town, within easy walking distance of Church, Shops, Restaurants and all amenities. It lies immediately adjacent to the Lakes Nursing Home, a modern custom designed and purpose built, VHI and Health Board registered facility, set in its own grounds with picturesque views of beautiful rolling countryside.

Built in 2000, the Home has 57 beds, all ensuite and provides a combination of double and single rooms, long term, convalescent, rehabilitative and respite care with emphasis on individual needs. In addition, 24 hour on-call service is provided by local GPs. The current occupancy rate is 95% with an average of 93% during 2005.
