Doolin Ferries and Aran Island Day Trips

Doolin Ferries and Aran Island Day Trips

Many of our guests take the opportunity to visit the Burren while they are staying here at Fuchsia Lane Farm. Such a trip usually includes a trip to the Cliffs of Moher.  One of the most beautiful sights from the famous cliffs is, of course, the Aran Islands.  For the 2018 season we are partnering with Doolin Ferries who operate a daily service to the Islands, as well as a tour of the Cliffs from the ocean side, and guests staying with us here at Fuchsia Lane Farm can avail of a discount that offers up to 40% off the normal price when they book online in advance.  When you check in with us we will give you a special code which you can use on the Doolin Ferry website

Irish Times Best Places to Stay in Ireland

Irish Times Best Places to Stay in Ireland

Last weekend the Irish Times Weekend magazine published an article on the 100 Best Places to Stay in Ireland.  We are thrilled to be included in this prestigious listing in Ireland’s most influential newspaper!  We have worked at our business for so many years with the intention that we provide a ‘real rural experience’ for our guests. Travel writer Catherine Mack described Fuchsia Lane Farm as offering ‘the best farm fåilte (Irish for welcome) that you could get’.  We won’t argue against that!  Inclusion in this list has given us a fantastic boost and acknowledgment for our efforts.  

We don’t strive to have a huge business here but rather one that allows us to share our place with others who value space, peace, closeness to nature and the chance to be ‘with themselves’.  For us it’s a business that allows us to create a life where we can work where we live, and work at what we love.

We hope our guests enjoy it too!

A Taste of Lough Derg

A Summer Series of Food Events as A Taste of Lough Derg Returns

Food producers and restaurant owners surrounding Lough Derg Lakelands have joined forces once again this summer in an effort to promote the region as a food tourism destination.  A Taste of Lough Derg returns for a third year this June and features over 30 food events taking place in villages and towns along the shores of Lough Derg in counties Clare, Galway and Tipperary until late September.

The calendar of events has been coordinated by the Lough Derg Marketing Group in conjunction with the food businesses in the region and was launched recently  by culinary icon Peter Ward from Country Choice Nenagh and The Milk Market in Limerick.

Speaking at the launch of programme Mr Ward commented that “It’s great to see businesses working in collaboration around Lough Derg. Cross selling, buying local produce, and shopping locally are key drivers in supporting the local economy. Creating events that will entice visitors into our towns and villages during the summer months is a key objective of A Taste of Lough Derg”

There’s an exciting programme of events for 2016 aimed at attracting new visitors to the region and providing them with a memorable food experience. It’s an opportunity to showcase the food produce in the area, some of the quality artisan food producers and established restaurants. Some of the highlights of the 2016 programme include the chance to meet a Beekeeper, take a trip on a kayak, walk some of the Lough Derg Way, experience the work inside a woollen mills, cookery and baking demonstrations and lots more.
