Kilnaboy Neighbourhood Guide
Clare
About Kilnaboy
Kilnaboy is a small rural locality in County Clare, set in the Burren region between Corofin, Kilfenora, Tubber and Carron, with V95 as its routing key. The area has a quiet, close-knit countryside character, with scattered homes, farmland, limestone landscapes and easy access to some of Clare’s best-known heritage sites. Day-to-day life is peaceful and car-dependent, although Corofin provides a useful nearby village base for groceries, services and community facilities. Local education is centred on nearby primary schools, while secondary pupils generally travel to schools in Corofin, Ennistymon, Gort or other surrounding towns. Regional bus services are limited compared with urban areas, so most residents rely on cars for commuting, shopping and school runs. Pubs, cafés and restaurants are found mainly in Corofin, Kilfenora and the wider Burren area, rather than in Kilnaboy itself. The surrounding landscape offers excellent walking, cycling, caving and sightseeing opportunities, with the Burren National Park and heritage attractions close by. Notable local landmarks include the historic Kilnaboy Church area and the Cromlech, while Parkahilly Children’s Burial Ground reflects the locality’s distinctive archaeological and cultural heritage.
