Turoe Pet Farm
Tourist attraction
👍👍 Nice farm with clean paddocks and a walk right around which is gravel all the way. We arrived while the heavens opened and the rain lashed with an umbrella - and did not get dirty walking.
You get a small bag of food on entry for feeding the animals which made for some really excited kids and the a...

The Long Point

👍👍 Such a nice little lake! One of my favourites from now on.
I can imagine what a buzz can be there in the summer.
So relaxing, so calming and the water is crystal clear.

The Weavers Rest
Restaurant
👍👍 It is probably one of the busiest places in the town of Loughrea (hence a little mark down on the atmosphere, it's packed in there most of the times) - but a for a good reason, the food is excellent. I just had a superfood salad, with added chicken for that extra protein and what a salad it was. Tr...

Irish Workhouse Centre
Heritage museum
👍👍 Absolutely worth a visit! Very reasonably priced and tour was just the right length. I could have listened to the guides all day long but an hour is about right so the kids don't become fed up. As for the tour guide & staff, all very friendly and full of local knowledge. I knew very little about the...

👍 I've been meaning to visit Galley Cafe for a while now. Finally, I managed to get this place open and with available place. This time round, my visit was mainly about a coffee and something to nibble. Unfortunately, there wasn't much for nibbling. Also, for a place called Gallery Cafe, I was disappo...

👍👍 Brian was the estate agent on behalf of the sellers when I bought my first home earlier this year (2023). I had met Brian previously while looking for a place and he was always very helpful and knew what I was looking for. When it came to the house purchase, Brian was beyond accommodating in allowin...

Burren Nature Sanctuary & Cafe
Visitor center
👍👍 We had a lovely visit. The animals are well cared for and the property is unique and fun to explore. We arranged for the fairy pig walk with Emilia the pig and it’s been a highlight of our trip so far. They only do one a day so you must arrange in advance- so worth it! We all loved it Grandma, Mom,...
