Father Ted's HouseHeritage attraction · 696 ydExplorer Tom Father Ted's House is a nostalgic glimpse into Ireland's comedy heritage, with the exterior shots of the show preserved in County Clare.
Glenquin HouseFarm house · 702 ydExplorer Tom Glenquin House in Poulnalour was used for Father Ted, so it’s basically a shrine to bad puns. It would post a selfie on social media with the caption 'Living my best parochial life.' Stand there long enough and someone will ask if you're lost or just weird.
Burren national parkVisitor information · 1.3 miExplorer Tom Burren national park is a hidden paradise where nature's magic unfolds in County Clare
CahercommaunFairy fort / stone ringfort · 1.5 miExplorer Tom Cahercommaun is a triple-walled fortress that looks like it survived a zombie attack and then complained about the mess. It’s sitting on a ravine edge, ready to drop you if you look at it wrong. Best enjoyed with a bag of chips and no plans.
Mullagh MoreMountain / peak · 1.5 miExplorer Tom Mullagh More, a limestone hill in County Clare that's as hardy as the people who live there.
Slieve RoeMountain / peak · 1.6 miExplorer Tom Slieve Roe, a towering peak in County Clare that's as majestic as the landscape it commands.
Castle in ruinsCastle, tower house · 1.7 miExplorer Tom Castle in ruins near Carran Turlough is secretly proud of the potato growing next to its foundation because the castle is doing worse. It controls a routeway but mostly just controls your sense of direction. Pretend it's yours and plan the housewarming.
Grave YardGraveyard · 1.8 miExplorer Tom Graveyard in Glencolumbkille South has a carved stone head hiding in the wall. Legend says if you don't wave, you get cursed with bad socks. A good place to forget your phone for ten minutes flat.
Saint Columba's Catholic ChurchChurch/chapel · 2.3 miExplorer Tom Saint Columba's Catholic Church in Crughwill is basically the village's living room, just with better lighting and more judgmental stares. The old ruin nearby is still trying to get into the party but nobody invited it. Hum something sad nearby; it adds atmosphere for the dramatics.
