Clare - The Shannon Region

The West of Ireland’s ‘Shannon Region’ is a special place where visitors can refresh their spirits away from the frenetic cities and towns of the world. The Region covers counties Clare, Limerick, North Tipperary and South Offaly.

In this compact area (less than 90 minutes from end to end) you will discover stunning landscapes, Atlantic seascapes, great sporting activity, entertainment, top shopping and visitor attractions, fun, music, uncrowded beaches, cliff-top and mountain walks, quiet country roads and everywhere the artefacts of Ireland’s ancient history.

Guest Accommodation is of the highest standards and ranges from the most luxurious castle hotels to homely B&B’s. Our Atlantic ocean, rivers and lush, green pastures provide the food ingredients that are used to create imaginative dishes presented in our pubs, hotels and ‘good food circle’ restaurants.

And, the welcome is warm and legendary. Too good to be true? Then ask someone who has been here. Or, better still, log out of your computer and come experience the delights for yourself. You can be here in a few hours because Shannon International Airport puts the Region within easy reach.
