Platform One Café, Clare Castle Country Park

Highlight • Cafe

If you're hoping to use this for a train-bike tour, there haven't been any trains at this station since 1967! Very distinctive location inside the grounds of Clare Castle though (now a country park).

Clare Castle Country Park is a beautiful place to explore. Top billing goes to its Norman Castle and the 60-foot (18 m) motte, which you can ascend for lovely views …
