Limerick people living near the Clare border will be able to visit one of region s most popular tourist sites again from next week.
The Shannon Group has announced that Bunratty Folk Park will re-open to the public next week following the lifting of restrictions for outdoor heritage sites.
The Folk Park, which has remained closed since late last year, will open four days a week initially and only those living in County Clare or within 20 kilometres in Limerick will be permitted to attend.
Set on 26 acres of countryside, there is plenty of space for social distancing and the Folk Park’s animators, dressed in 19th century costumes, are looking forward to sharing their stories with visitors.
