This is Irish country living at its very best
A magnificent playground of country pursuits, Dromoland Castle’s 500-acre estate offers up so many opportunities for fun. Surrounded by County Clare’s rolling hills, your stay can be as chilled out or high energy as you wish.
Make like a royal and schedule some Archery, Clay Shooting or Falconry. Our resident hawks, falcons and owls will take your breath away. Plenty of local wildlife call our estate home too, so you may just end up sharing your walk with some deer, pheasants, squirrels or ducks!
Majestic Dromoland Lough is excellent for Trout Fishing, Boating or stand up Paddle Boarding with the added bonus of distractingly good views of the Castle. Take a woodland jog before breakfast, head off on a cycle around the grounds or enjoy a romantic stroll in the Walled Garden after dinner. Our grounds and gardens are simply magical (well, they do share the same designer as the Gardens of Versailles!), with fabulous historic details hidden around every bend.
Dromoland Castle’s 18-hole championship Golf Course is famous for good reason. The par 72 course, redesigned by Ron Kirby and the late JB Carr, wraps around the historic estate and is both thoughtful and challenging. We’re rather proud of our state-of-the-art practice facility too, which has 10 fully automated driving bays, complete with Golf-Tech’s fully automated Power Tees.

JJ CORRY IRISH WHISKEY FARM
Get a taste for life on the Wild Atlantic Way with a visit to JJ Corry, a whiskey bonding experience in rural West Clare.
The lost art of whiskey bonding has been revived and perfected on The McGuane family farm in this idyllic part of Ireland, where whiskey heritage flows through generations.
Sourcing whiskey from established distilleries across the country, the expert team matures them on site and creates never to be repeated blends. The tradition of whiskey bonding became almost extinct as distilleries closed in the early 1900s and Ireland lost some of its regional whiskeys. See the rebirth of this craft in action on an exclusive whiskey bonding tour of the rackhouse with Louise McCorry, the CEO of JJ Corry, and open a cask full of history, tradition, and incredible whiskey.
Uncover the story of how her incredible family run business has revived whiskey bonding, directly from the CEO herself.
The experiences here are as rare as the whiskey itself.
It’s time to immerse yourself in the craft of whiskey bonding.
