Once you’re here, there is a wealth to do and see, and the Ardagh Hotel makes the perfect base to explore this natural haven for outdoor pursuits. Connemara is truly a wonder for outdoor activities, from some of the finest Trout and Salmon fishing to some Shark fishing at sea, which makes for an unforgettable day.
If thats a bit more adventure than you’d care for then why not try 18 holes of golf at the Connemara Golf Club to keep that swing in shape! Also in Clifden is the Connemara Pony Show, held every August, the show has a long standing international reputation.
For those of you who find the wilds of Connemara calling to you, it is a perfect place for some hill, bog and mountain walking. Island trips are also available and all activities can be organised through the hotel.
There are also a wealth of places to see, that won’t strain you too much, if some of the other activities seem a bit much! The Connemara National Park, has a wealth of information on Connemara, while Kylemore Abbey and its famous Gothic Church are a must see during your visit. Also the site where Alcock & Brown landed after their first trans-Atlantic crossing. These are only a few of the places and activities for you to see and do. For information on what’s available, please ask at the Hotel. |
