Driving tour of Ireland

[Magicpole]

Not as bad, but not cheap, yet again Killarney or Dingle €5 and up a pint, everywhere else €4-€5.

I suppose the Mrs could cut down. No doubt after March and the Brexit Fuck up the £ will crash against the euro making it even more expensive for us. Thanks again Brexiteers.

Make sure you get to Dingle.

Make sure you get to Dingle.

Spent our honeymoon going round various parts of Ireland - ring of Kerry was great. Dingle peninsula superb and others like Bantry Bay, Killorglin, Kenmare, Cork all really relaxed and lovely. Oh......and we got up to other things as well

We stayed in the Langton House Hotel in Kilkenny. Was for a wedding but it was a nice hotel, large, lots going on and in the centre.

The Montenotte in Cork. On a hill overlooking Cork. 20/30 minute walk into town. 40 minute back! (We got a taxi) Had a pool. Decent bar and food views.

Get yourself to God's own county, Mayo, you won't regret it

Always like Donegal, but the west coast in general is great, found a nice hotel Harvey’s point I think and a great seafood pub smuggler’s cave from memory both just outside Donegal, enjoy.

If you get over to the west coast, I can strongly recommend Westport. Plenty of pubs and some fantastic coastline and scenery

Dublin to Bray. Plenty of places to stay. Great walk up the big hill at the end of the promenade.

Guinness Lake is also near here. Stunning place.

Coast road to Kilkenny. Beautiful. Kilkenny is a lovely place. Nice castle, great pubs etc etc.

Continue coast drive to Cork. Weird place but a great bar in the Welcome Inn. They let you pour the black stuff. Blarney Stone is near. In Blarney Castle.

Head south to Kinsale and then old head.

We then flew back after a wedding but the West coast drive is stunning from here onwards.

A lake of Guinness? Sounds great
