About this Deal

Located just a couple of miles south of Ballyvaughan, Aillwee Cave is Ireland’s Premier show cave. There is a whole labyrinth of caves, pot holes, underground lakes and streams beneath the surface of The Burren, but Aillwee is the only one that can be explored without the aid of special equipment.

Discovered by a herdsman in 1941, the cave has more than 3,500 feet of passages. Visitors are guided on a 35 minute stroll through beautiful caverns, over bridged chasms, beneath weird rock formations, and alongside the thunderous waterfall that can sometimes gently spray the unsuspecting visitor.

Unique to Ireland are the Bear Pits – hollows scraped out by brown bears, one of the cave’s original inhabitants. The entrance to the cave has been strikingly landscaped in stone with a design reminiscent of Ireland’s prehistoric monuments. Inside, there is a craft shop with some unusual artifacts on sale, a tea room with homemade scones available and a potato bar with various fillings added. Outside, there is a terrace where you can enjoy both a glass of wine and stunning views stretching away to the Connemara Mountains.

At the bottom of the hill is a farm shop and a dairy where you can watch and sample the award winning cheese being made along side many different tastes of jams and preserves.
