THE FAMILY FRIENDLY HOSTEL

Clare's Rock Hostel and private shared self-catering accommodation provide private ensuite rooms for groups, couples and families in a clean and comfortable environment.
While there are private rooms in the original Hostel (stone building), we also specialise in group accommodation. The Hostel was built in 1998 and we have catered for many universities and adult study groups from France, Germany, Ireland and the U.K.
More recently, in 2005 two purpose built units were added adjacent to the Hostel which cater exclusively for couples & families (pictured under Special Offers)

Clare's Rock accommodation is located in the rural village of Carron at the top of the Burren mountains and is part of a traditional Burren farm.
It is best suited to those with their own transport as there is no public transport to Carron. .
The village is the birthplace of Michael Cusack the founder of the G.A.A. (Gaelic Athletic Association).

The Burren way (marked walking trail) passes through Carron. Along the trail you can see, Poulnabrone and Parknabinnia wedge tombs, Cathair Chomain stone fort, the largest Turlough (disappearing lake) in western europe, fullachta fia (ancient cooking sites), and large areas of limestone pavement including the Mulloghmore national park. Much of the trails are on green roads.There are also marked walks in the Burren nature reserve at Mount Carron plus the newly opened Carron loop walk which has it's starting point at the hostel.
After your day in the Burren you can cook in our kitchens or eat at the local pub/restaurant.
