Tarbert

  • The pretty town of Tarbert is located in north County Kerry on the banks of the Shannon Estuary
  • Tarbert is situated on a slope overlooking one of the prettiest parts of the Shannon; from here the Shannon car ferry crosses to Killimer in County Clare. The Tarbert-Killimer ferry service provides the opportunity for several attractive circular tours. The 20-minute crossing saves 85 miles (137 km) on the same journey via Limerick.
  • Tarbert House which was completed about 1730, has a fine collection of Georgian furniture, including the best example of an Irish Chippendale mirror.
