When I think of staycations in Ireland, for some reason I always seem to forget about County Clare! Having visited there recently it has sparked my memory of some really wonderful times I have had while there and decided to try and draw more attention to there as a weekend destination for the Summer. This…Continue Reading “Two Day Clare Itinerary”
Killarney is one of the most notorious places in Ireland. Home to one of the most amazing coastal routes our island has to offer, the Ring of Kerry is roughly 200km of absolutely tantalizing views offered to you around every bend and hairpin turn. Saying this, the Ring of Kerry is just one of the…Continue Reading “A Weekend In Killarney”
Kinsale is such a beautiful little town at the coast of County Cork. I think when it comes to The Wild Atlantic Way, Cork gets a small bit left out of the party. I think this is partly due to it being at the end of the route and also with the others such as…Continue Reading “A Weekend In County Cork”
My friends and I were planning on taking a trip to Malta and thought, you know what, why not explore the Aran Islands off Ireland instead?! So with that in mind we ended up staying in Doolin, Clare for two nights and ventured out to the largest of the Aran Islands, Inis Mor on the…Continue Reading “Exploring Doolin & The Aran Islands”

While my parents beach town of choice was Ballyheigue back in the day, I now go to Ballybunnion when I get the chance. I hadn’t been down here in almost two years so my friend and I decided…Continue Reading “An Evening In Kerry”
If you had ever asked me about recommendations for Clare before I would have been very quick to say The Cliffs of Moher, Doolin, Liscannor, etc. The last time I had explored anywhere else in Clare was with my parents years ago and having finally gone there last weekend I’m really sad that it didn’t…Continue Reading “Discovering County Clare”

At the beginning of the year I decided to sign up to a 180km cycle around the Ring of Kerry. This is a loop around some of the most beautiful parts in Kerry, Ireland. The cycle itself is all done in one day with around 11,500 participants making it an amazing experience. The cycle is…Continue Reading “The Ring Of Kerry”
I love travelling and seeing different places around the world, but I’m a complete home bird at the end of the day and love nothing more than being in Ireland. The weather doesn’t help when you want to explore because the wind, rain and hail holds you back pretty much 364 of 365 days of…Continue Reading “My Favourite Places in Ireland”
