We
are located on the west coast of Ireland in the county of Clare within the
famous limestone lunar landscape of the Burren. This spectacular landscape will
amaze your eyes with its Narnia rock formations of terraced hills which appear
like giant helter skelters on a beautiful horizon. These hills sit in the midst
of hectare after hectare of horizontal stone slabs.
The
world renowned Cliffs of Moher which dominate the south western coast of the
Burren are located only four miles from the farm. The Cliffs, where the
rugged land meets the wild Atlantic Ocean, are Ireland's premier tourist
attraction. The famous cliffs are striking in stature, rising
approximately 700 ft vertically from the sea and the breath-taking views will
leave you with unforgettable memories!
Two
miles from our farm is the beautiful, sand-duned Lahinch beach which stretches
along the wild Atlantic for miles and miles. Lahinch is also home to one of
Ireland's most renowned golf courses. The restaurants, pubs and clubs in the
town provide the visitor with a wide variety of food and entertainment as well
as a vibrant night life.
Doolin
which is a small coastal fishing village sitting on a shelf above the Atlantic
is located three miles from the farm. Doolin is world famous for traditional
Irish music and is home to Ireland's most famous Irish music pub - Gussie
O'Connors.
