Things To Do

Cliffs of Moher

Aillwee Cave & Birds of Prey

At the caves, you can embark on a guided tour, consisting of a 30-minute stroll through the beautiful caverns – over bridged chasms, under weird formations and alongside frozen and active waterfalls! The Birds Of Prey Centre is home to eagles, falcons, hawks, and owls. Here, you can watch flying displays, or even go on a "Hawk Walk" led by falconers around the Burren.

Burren National Park

The Burren is a region of County Clare in the southwest of Ireland. It’s a karst landscape of bedrock incorporating a vast cracked pavement of glacial-era limestone, with cliffs and caves, fossils, rock formations and archaeological sites. The Burren National Park is open all year round and is free to access. There are five marked walking trails in the Park that take you through many different fascinating and beautiful habitats, such as species-rich limestone grasslands, hazel/ash woodlands and limestone pavements.

Lahinch Golf Club

Founded in 1893 by a Scottish Regiment of British Army officers, this course is a perfect example of a true Irish links with its towering sand dunes, rolling fairways and greens. The flatter Castle Course overlooks ruined Dough Castle. Try to spot the goats, whose ancestors have roamed the fairways for nearly 100 years! Note, however, that this golf course is further from Ballyvaughan, at about 40 mins away. Championship Old Course (par 72) - €190 Castle Course (par 70) - €35 Prices reduced in off-season
