Ballinalacken CastleCastle · 1.3 mi

Explorer Tom Ballinalacken Castle is a two-stage towerhouse near Doolin, standing as a silent witness to centuries of history in County Clare.

Corpus Christi Catholic ChurchChurch/chapel · 1.7 mi

Explorer Tom Corpus Christi Catholic Church in Rathbaun is trying very hard to look important with its tower and spire. Best seen with a hangover and a sausage roll, because the spiritual energy helps you forgive yourself for the greasy breakfast choice.

Doolin CaveCave · 1.8 mi

Explorer Tom Doolin Cave stands proud in County Clare, and I can practically hear the sea echoing off its stone walls.

Royal Spa HotelHotel · 1.8 mi

Explorer Tom Royal Spa Hotel has a carriage arch from when horses were the only way to get drunk in Rathbaun. It’s been renovated since, so now it’s just expensive and slightly damp. A good place to forget your phone for ten minutes while you pretend you’re royalty.

Site of Lisdoonvarna CastleCastle, tower house · 2.1 mi

Explorer Tom Site of Lisdoonvarna Castle would be a total disaster on a reality show, probably losing its footing in episode one. It’s a bit of a mess now, but ideal stop for a big stretch and a bigger yawn.

BallyryanCliff · 2.3 mi

Explorer Tom Ballyryan is a lovely limestone cliff in County Clare, just right for quick, sunny climbs with friends on a nice day.

FaunarooskaCave · 2.4 mi

Explorer Tom Faunarooska sits on the Burren, near Black Head; I picture dramatic cliffs and winds that make your hair stand up.

AilladieCliff · 2.4 mi

Explorer Tom Ailladie stands tall as a cliff in County Clare, perfect for spotting climbers scaling its impressive middle sectors today.

Slieve ElvaMountain / peak · 2.7 mi

Explorer Tom Slieve Elva, a peak that’s as isolated as the bog land that surrounds it in County Clare.

Grave YardGraveyard · 3.2 mi

Explorer Tom Graveyard in Craggagh would cope brilliantly on a reality show because it has great views and zero drama. St. Onchon built it ages ago and left it to rot stylishly. Practise your Irish on it, it won't correct you.

Court tomb in TeergoneanCourt tomb · 3.8 mi

Explorer Tom Court tomb in Teergonean has two chambers and zero chill, sitting in that limestone hollow like it’s judging your hiking boots. It looks like a fancy stone house for ghosts who like privacy. Get a photo with it before it gets a better agent.

Fanore BeachVisitor information · 4.5 mi

Explorer Tom Fanore Beach has me checking if the rain is just a metaphor for the mood I'm in
