These towering cliffs rise up to 702 feet above the Atlantic Ocean, providing stunning views of the coastline and surrounding countryside. Visitors can walk along the cliff edge, visit the visitor center, and learn about the history and geology of this amazing natural wonder.

This area is famous for its karst limestone terrain, which is home to a diverse range of flora and fauna. Visitors can explore the Burren on foot, by bike, or even on horseback, taking in the stunning views and unique geology. We’re lucky that the Burren is only a 15 minute walk down a beautiful country lane from us. It’s a must for any guests staying at Wild Meadow Huts.
