    I have been told in the past that Chris De Burgh, Van Morrison, and Liam Neeson all have homes here, or have had one at some point in the past.

    Barbara Bel Geddes and Anne Charleston both had homes on the shores of Lough Corrib.
    Van Morrison had a house on the Coast Rd.
    Sean McGinley lived in Oranmore for a while.

    I can't really think of anyone really really famous who is here now?
