    Can anyone tell me the exact location or directions to the Bulmers factory in Clonmel?Is it in an industrial estate or out on it's own?

    I have seen pics of the plant and i really want to get a picture with the sign outside the factory,just like many many tourists have got pictures outside St James Gate for that horrid black stuff,as Bulmers has got me drunk nearly every weekend for the last 9 years so i would love to pay homage.

    Any help would be appreciated!

    Cheers

    Bulmers has it's own site just outside Clonmel on the Waterford Road on the N24

    As CML said, no they don't. I asked last year. Maybe they need to get a few more requests? :)

    I heard from someone who heard from someone else (so in other words, it may not be true!) that Neven Maguire was filming in Bulmers for his new series so that might be another way of getting a look inside the Bulmers factory

    Did you get that photo yet?.................you can also take photos of some of their orchards............on the side of the N24.......beside goods entrance to factory..........nice blossoms in spring.............nicely laden apple trees in autumn...............that ad on TV with David Williams was made in one of their orchards on the banks of the river Suir just a few hundred meters from the factory entrance.

    Correction for future reference: I should have said David McWilliams the very well known economist.
