An ancient 17-stone circle dating from the Bronze Age, set on a hillside with panoramic views of the surrounding Irish countryside. Families can explore the circle and a nearby fulacht fiadh (ancient cooking site) for free. Highlights: Perfect for a quick, educational stop; kids can run around the stones and imagine life 3,000 years ago. The site is small but atmospheric. Ages: Suitable for all ages, though very young children may need carrying over uneven ground. Older kids will enjoy the history and the chance to 'discover' the circle. Facilities: Free parking, no toilets or shelter. Best visited on a dry day as the path can be muddy. Practical Tips: Allow 20-30 minutes. Combine with a trip to nearby Glandore or Rosscarbery. No entry fee.
