The castle is a 16th century L-plan tower house situated on the edge of The Burren overlooking Ballyvaughan Bay.
The castle was a stronghold owned by the powerful O'Loughlin family who controlled much of North Clare until the late 19th Century.
The castle makes a good spot to stop, take a break and take in the stunning position of this historic tower house.
