About us
Who we are
Clare Castle Country Park is a beautiful quiet area to relax, play, get close to nature and learn about Clare’s fascinating history and heritage.
The park contains the remains of the 13th Century stone castle keep set upon its 60ft high motte overlooking the town, as well as its inner and outer baileys which are ideal areas for recreation and picnics. The inner bailey also contains the former railway station which now houses the Platform One Cafe serving hot drinks and food throughout the year.
Away from the open green areas visitors can find the footpaths through the trees and along the banks of the River Stour and along the old railway line. Here can be viewed the variety of trees and plant life, and information boards show the various birds and water life which can be seen along the waters’ edge.
There is something for everyone at Clare Castle Country Park. Whether you’re looking to volunteer once a week or at a one-off event, we have a place for everyone in our volunteering community.
We are expanding our Park events and are looking for enthusiastic people to get involved and help our ideas become reality. You might be based outside with one of our working parties or looking after the model railway. You might be wanting to meet new people or learn a new skill in the time you volunteer… whatever your motivation, we want to hear from you.
