The scenic area
of Cranny has many quiet country lanes and make
it
ideal for secluded walks and bicycling! The angler will
find big stocks of small brown trout and the occasional sea-trout or salmon in the Cloon River and in Gortlass Lake!
Shops are not too far and
the local pub "Tir na nÓg" (Land of youth!)
is just 5 minutes away offering an opportunity
to join the locals for a pint of the best Guinness in
Ireland
and enjoy the music sessions!!
The
house is perfectly located for touring County Clare
and Kerry as the car-ferry to Kerry is only 8 miles from the
cottage. All the sights of West Clare, including the Cliffs of Moher, the Burren region, Ennis with its attractive
narrow streets as well as the the
Atlantic beaches and
the spectacular rocky coastline on Loop Head Peninsula are in easy driving distance.
