EOI for Bunratty Landbank Development Opportunity

Shannon Development Co. Ltd

Shannon Development has developed the Bunratty Castle & Folk Park project over many years to the stage where it has now become one of the top visitor attractions in Ireland. Total Visitor numbers for the attraction have reached in excess of 400 000 per annum. The company continues to operate the attraction to a very high standard consistent with international best practice. This commitment is evident through the build / design standards adopted throughout the attraction and also through the strong visitor and customer focussed management of the facility. Over many years, Shannon Development has put in place all key elements required to accurately present and efficiently operate the attraction.
Having successfully developed and operated the existing attraction at Bunratty, Shannon Development considers that significant opportunity exists to further develop the overall attraction by utilising the adjoining lands to develop complementary and sustainable visitor facilities and attractions which are in keeping with the authenticity of the existing visitor attraction and surrounding area.
An area of development land which is partially zoned for tourism development comprising approximately 120 acres adjacent to the existing Bunratty attraction is available for development.
