Father Ted's House

A visit to Father Ted’s House is up there as one of the best things to do in Clare and is just 27 minutes from us here at Lady Gregory Hotel, Leisure Club & Beauty Rooms.

Father Ted’s House

If you were a fan of the show, a visit to the Parochial House will bring back a clatter of nostalgia. The exterior set for Father Ted’s house was, in fact, a family home near Corofin in County Clare. It remains unchanged today, as does the family who resides there. The owners used to welcome Father Ted fans into their home to talk all things Ted and enjoy some refreshments, however you can no longer enter the house. As the grounds of the house are private property, it is best to book a tour in advance as a show of respect for the owners and local residents.

There is no parking at Father Ted House and also leading up to the property is a very narrow road, so it makes driving there very tricky. We recommend arriving as early as possible to avoid causing any disruption on the road. Never just abandon your car on the road and try and enter the grounds or leave your car in front of one of the neighbouring houses. If you get there early, you can pull up in your car, admire from afar and snap a few pictures before moving on.
