Ardmore star : The Michelin guide review

Ardmore's popularity as a holiday resort has grown around its little pier, its theme park and its huge beach, with its fine sand and safe bathing. From the hotel in the village, a steep hill takes you up to a well-signposted path that leads past the ruined Dysert church to Cape Ram (3km), from where magnificent views of the coastline can be enjoyed.
