Clare is one of the global heartlands of traditional Irish music, and we are very fortunate to have some of its finest practitioners living amongst us and playing regularly with us.

We host traditional music & sessions generally at dinner time where you can enjoy it in the background or engage with more closely should you wish to. See our summer 2020 schedule here
