Scarriff

Scarriff

Nestled in the picturesque lakelands of East Clare, Scariff boasts a rich history as a former market town. While Scariff Fair Day is now a memory, the Market House in the square stands as a tribute and houses the tourist office.

Explore nearby historical sites like the Scariff Workhouse outbuildings and the impressive six-storey Water Tower (built in 1851), viewable from Riverside Park. The park features a refurbished playground and a scenic 1km looped walk.

Savour a meal at local bars or the Garden Café at the East Clare Community Co-op, offering delicious vegetarian dishes made with produce from the community garden and other local sources.

Extend your stay and enjoy boating or fishing on Lough Derg, adventure activities at Derg Isle, a visit to Holy Island, or a walk along the East Clare Way. A charming spot with something for everyone!
