Holy Island Tours on Lough Derg Clare

 

Holy Island on Lough Derg and the river Shannon is one of the most famous monastic sites in Ireland.

Its many attractions include a well-preserved Round Tower, the ruins of six churches, a Holy Well, a unique graveyard with slabs dating from the eight century, Bullaun Stones, a cell like structure, which is one of the most extraordinary buildings in Ireland and a ‘bargaining’ stone where many a marriage was brokered.

Their secluded position has enabled them to survive in a wonderful state of preservation.
