The Burren Visitor Centre

Over the weekend our Tea Rooms were buzzing with creative energy as two fabulous events took place last Saturday and Sunday! ✨

Laura Vaughan Lampshade Design hosted a fabulous new Lampshade Making Workshop where everyone learned to make their very own pair of lampshades to bring home and brighten up the darker evenings of autumn and winter! 🛋️🍂

Cheeky Stitcher also returned to lead another Cross Stitch for Beginners which also went down a treat! 🪡

We really love to see creativity and community gatherings here enjoying our cosy café space! What would you like to see taking place here at the Burren Visitor Centre Tea Rooms? ☕️✨ Let us know below!

Our Burren Exhibition is a fantastic introduction to the living culture of the Burren ! 🎻

Here you’ll find an interpretive exhibition exploring unique geology, archaeology, history, biodiversity, music and culture of the Burren 🔍

The immersive ‘A Journey Through Time’, an Éamon de Buitléar film, plays mid-way through the exhibition and is available to watch in English, French, German and Dutch. The 12 minute film is a great way to connect with the landscape and its 320 million year history! 📽️

The exhibition also has a Digital Story Trail via QR code to guide you through the exhibition and the 9th Century Kilfenora Cathedral ruins and accompanying High Crosses, this collection of crosses being Ireland’s densest. 🧭

Come and visit us on your Autumn escape to The Burren! 🍂
