Shannon: Located approx 12 miles SE of Ennis on the N19 road in Co. Clare, Shannon is probably most known for the Shannon international airport, however the county of Clare has much to see and do itself and if you have the time to explore this county then it is certainly well worth exploring!

The county of Clare has some outstanding coastal scenery around “Loop head” and further north is the dramatic “Cliffs of Moher tower” almost 700ft above the Atlantic. Inland of Co.Clare is “The Burren” a wild wasteland which is an irresistable and attractive visit to Botanists, Archeologists and Geologists alike which like to explore it's many prehistoric sites.
