Glenquin HouseFarm house · 1505 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.
Father Ted's HouseHeritage attraction · 1507 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.
Burren National ParkNature reserve · 1716 ydExplorer Tom Burren National Park is a landscape like no other, with its rocky karst terrain stretching out under the wide, open sky of County Clare.
Slieve RoeMountain / peak · 1.1 miExplorer Tom Slieve Roe, a towering peak in County Clare that's as majestic as the landscape it commands.
Mullagh MoreMountain / peak · 1.2 miExplorer Tom Mullagh More, a limestone hill in County Clare that's as hardy as the people who live there.
Grave YardGraveyard · 1.3 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.
Holy Well1.6 miExplorer Tom Holy Well in Glencolumbkille South is walled in and fed by springs higher up the hill, so it’s basically a water park with an entry fee of humility. If it rains, blame me.
Castle in ruinsCastle, tower house · 2.2 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.
Templecronan (in ruins)Church · 2.5 miExplorer Tom Templecronan survived a storm that broke the local boatman’s back, and it just shrugged it off. The cyclopean masonry is thick enough to block out bad news. Stand there long enough and someone will ask if you're lost.

Cappagh CastleCastle · 2.5 miExplorer Tom Cappagh Castle rises as a tall stone ruin in open rocky grassland, standing firm under the cloudy sky of County Clare.
Rock IslandIsland · 5.4 miExplorer Tom Rock Island, with its rugged silhouette, stands proudly near Lough Inchiquin’s southern shore.
Inchiquin IslandIslet · 5.4 miExplorer Tom Inchiquin Island! A small islet with a name that sounds like it could be part of a royal lineage, what secrets does it keep in County Clare?
