On the edge of the Atlantic
<<PreviousNext >>
About the place:
Three Castle Head Cafe is a unique property on the edge of Ireland’s most south-westerly peninsula. It has stunning views of the Atlantic coastline. The farm includes the 12th-century Dunlough Castle, which is situated on the edge of steep cliffs, and next to a large freshwater lough. When Bird and Dine visited a couple of years ago, from the terrace we could see a flock of choughs, a pair of ravens, gannets, stonechats, linnets, swallows and house martins. This is a well-known spot for American rarities at migration time – spring and autumn, and, although the cafe is no longer open for day visitors, accommodation is available all year round.
