Driving lessons Cloughjordan
Cloughjordan lessons, simply
Every hour of our driving lessons in Cloughjordan is taught by an Approved Driving Instructor in a dual-controlled car, starting at a pick-up point you choose. We build the course toward a test at Nenagh unless you pick another centre.
Collected off the train
If you arrive by rail, Cloughjordan station can be your agreed pick-up point. Home and work suit others just as well, and none of it costs extra.
In safe hands
An Approved Driving Instructor teaches each lesson in a car with a second brake. It is there from your first drive along Main Street to the last one before Nenagh.
Your nerves, your pace
Nervous learners are never hurried. Step Road and Modreeny Road come into the lessons only when you are ready, and the voice in the car stays calm.
An honest verdict
We tell you plainly when you are ready for the Nenagh test, and what to work on if you are not. Nobody sells you lessons to fill the gap.
Both cars taught
An automatic pass brings code 78 and an automatics-only licence. A manual pass has no such limit, and both are taught for Cloughjordan learners.
Choosing your instructor
When you enquire, ask for a female instructor if that would help, or tell us about any other worry. We match you with that information to hand.

Manual driving lessons Cloughjordan
Your manual lessons from Cloughjordan begin near your pick-up point with the controls: clutch, gears and stopping smoothly. Junctions, roundabouts and reversing follow in turn, each practised until it is steady. Main Street and Step Road are early drives, then Modreeny Road and Old Birr Road as your speed and planning improve. In the final lessons, your instructor takes you into the area around the Nenagh centre, about 20 minutes away, so it is familiar by test day.

Automatic driving lessons Cloughjordan
Automatic driving lessons in Cloughjordan let you learn without a clutch, so there is one less thing to manage in the early hours. Everything else, including the test at Nenagh, is the same. The licence is not: an automatic pass carries code 78, limiting you to automatic cars, while a manual pass covers both. Tell us when you enquire, and we check which automatic instructor can collect you in Cloughjordan.

Getting ready for the test
Your test at Nenagh
Nenagh is 17.5 km from Cloughjordan by road, about 20 minutes, and it is the centre your lessons build toward. The others are much further: Thurles about 50 minutes, Woodview in Limerick about 55 and Shannon about 65. They make sense only if Nenagh has no suitable date for you.
Close to the day, the pretest gives you an hour in the area around the Nenagh centre, or your chosen centre, with car hire for the test included. The manual price for both is €183.63. You sit the test in the car that has been teaching you. Book it once your date arrives.

Learning in Cloughjordan
Cloughjordan roads you will learn
Lessons begin close to where you were collected, with the car as your only focus. Main Street and Step Road are first, then Modreeny Road and Old Birr Road once your speed control is steady. Your instructor adds one new skill at a time.
Cloughjordan station is a pick-up point we can agree if you come in by train. Home or work works just as well. Tell us your choice when you book, and you are dropped back there or at another agreed point.
Borrisokane, 8.9 km away as the crow flies, and Roscrea, 15.9 km, are the nearest towns on our list. Both are on our list, so learners there are collected in their own town at the same price. Templemore, 21.6 km away, is covered as well.

EDT and the test
The EDT: a guide
Your logbook holds the record of all 12 EDT lessons, each signed by your instructor before you get out of the car. It travels with your learner permit to every single lesson in Cloughjordan. Once it is complete, the next conversation is about Nenagh test dates and booking your pretest.

Cloughjordan questions
A few good questions
Is the station a possible pick-up point?
Yes. If you come in by train, agree Cloughjordan station as your pick-up when you book. Your instructor meets you there, and afterwards you can be dropped back at the station or at home.
Why do lessons focus on Nenagh?
Because it is the nearest centre by far: about 20 minutes from Cloughjordan by road, against roughly 50 minutes or more for the others. You can still apply elsewhere, and we plan your pretest for whichever you choose.
What will lessons cost me in Cloughjordan?
€53.27 buys a manual hour with pick-up and drop-off included. Paying for the 12-lesson EDT course in one go is an option too, and the automatic and course prices are on the tickets.
Is a driving instructor in Cloughjordan needed for EDT?
Yes. EDT has to be taught by an Approved Driving Instructor, and every one of ours is. We collect you in Cloughjordan, so you do not need to travel to Nenagh for lessons.
