GALLERY: Fun in the sun at Bunratty Castle and Craggaunowen

IT WAS a wonderful Easter weekend at two of Clare’s premier attractions – Bunratty Castle and Folk Park and Craggaunowen.

The Clare Champion’s mascot Daisy certainly had a great time at both venues.

We’re certainly blessed to have such great amenities on our doorstep in the Banner County.
