East Clare
is one of the hidden treasures of Ireland where visitors still find the peace and tranquility for which the emerald isle is famous. Rolling hills, green fields, unspoilt lakes and streams, endless forests and bogs offer a serene but never boring scenery - and it is central and not far away from all the major sights in the midwest of Ireland, including Cliffs of Moher, the Burren, Bunratty Folkpark, Killaloe as well as Galway, Ennis and Limerick.


Feakle
is a small pleasant village particularly popular with anglers and sportsmen and also well known for its traditional music pubs and for the Feakle International Traditional Music Festival, which takes place in Mid-August each year covering every aspect of traditional music. Feakle is steeped in the tradition of Irish music. Sons of Feakle, like Dr. Bill Loughnane, P.J. Hayes and Martin Hayes have distinguished themselves in the famed Tulla ceili band. Peppers Bar as well as the other pubs in the village have regular traditional music sessions.
