Holiday in Clare
County Clare knows a large number of places of interest. Not only built by nature (The Burren, Cliffs of Moher, Doolin Cave) but also built by man long ago (Poulnabron Dolmen, Caherconnel Stonefort) and more recent (Quin Abbey, Scattery Island).
Beside this there is a large number of attractions in county Clare. They form a wide spectrum, ranging from sport (golfing, sailing, horse riding) through perfume, genealogy, dolphins to Farmers markets.
It is difficult to compile an exhaustive list of those attractions, but I will try. Additions are always welcome!
