ITINERARY | IRELAND<br />

STAGE 3<br />

Clare<br />

From Mayo to Clare, take<br />

in Killary Harbour - a<br />

peaceful retreat that drew<br />

famous philosopher Ludwig<br />

Wittgenstein there shortly<br />

after WWII.<br />

Take the road to the<br />

wild and mysterious<br />

Derrigimlagh Bog to<br />

discover the scattered<br />

remnants of the world’s first<br />

permanent transatlantic<br />

radio station.<br />

Head to the south-western<br />

edge of the Burren region<br />

in County Clare for the<br />

popular tourist destination,<br />

the majestic Cliffs of Moher.<br />

WHERE TO STAY<br />

With all that fresh sea air, it’s probably best to rest up.<br />

Gregans Castle Hotel is a haven of tranquility: guests<br />

have included J.R.R Tolkien, who’s said to have been<br />

influenced by the Burren when writing <strong>The</strong> Lord of the<br />

Rings. <strong>The</strong> stunning 18th century manor house is set in<br />

its own established and lovingly-attended gardens, and<br />

has spectacular views that stretch across the Burren to<br />

Galway Bay. www,hhe.travel/gregans-castle<br />
