"Situated in the scenic village of Bunratty in Ireland’s County Clare, lies the beautiful Bunratty Castle, which is an enormous tower house, that was originally constructed during the 15th century. The castle that exists today was built in approximately the year 1425 by the MacNamara family, who were a powerful family in the county; throughout the Middle Ages, the castle was expanded, rebuilt, and renovated on a number of different occasions, each time bringing with it new architectural additions and features, as well as differing interiors. However, in the 19th century, the castle fell into disrepair after it was abandoned by the Studdert family, and it was not restored until the year 1956 after it was purchased by the 7th Viscount Gort."

"Go southwest of Limerick on the N69 and after a brief drive you’ll come to an idyllic former noble estate, now a 313-hectare public park. On a smooth ridge beside a man-made lake is the shell of Curraghchase House, going back to the mid-17th century and gutted by fire in 1941. The highly-regarded poet and critic Aubrey Thomas de Vere was born here, while his close friend Alfred, Lord Tennyson would often visit and wrote his work Lady Clara de Vere in homage."

"This sprawling forest park lies 20km away from Limerick centre, but it’s a world away from bustling city life. Dense woodland, spanning 313 hectares, with trails for hikers and cyclists, as well as camping sites, Curraghchase is the perfect place to escape from modern life for a day or two. The entrance fee of 5 euros per car is beyond reasonable, considering the well-kept amenities on site."

"Curraghchase Forest Park is a fantastic amenity for all the family to enjoy. The Park covers 313 hectares of mixed woodlands, parkland and lakes which together provide a rich habitat for a diverse range of animals and plants. There are a number of looped waymarked trails in the park to suit all visitors."
