Explore Ireland

Often called the Emerald Isle, Ireland is one of Europe’s most popular holiday destinations. From cities like Dublin, Cork, Galway and Killarney to world famous tourist attractions like the Blarney Stone and the Cliffs Of Moher, you’ll never run out of things to see and do on an Ireland holiday. Of course, one of the best things about a trip to Ireland has nothing to do with cities or tourist attractions – it’s the Irish people and their craic. To truly experience this, be sure to book self-catering Ireland accommodation. That way you’ll avoid touristy hotels and get to live amongst the locals for a true taste of Irish life.

Holiday in Ireland

When planning a holiday in Ireland, there’s no better place to start your itinerary than the country’s capital, Dublin. Here you’ll find Christ Church Cathedral, Dublin Castle, the Guinness Storehouse and The Book Of Kells, housed in the Trinity College Library. Head southwest and you’ll reach Cork, the second largest city in the Republic of Ireland. Here, you can ring the bells at Shandon Church, or take a daytrip to nearby Blarney Castle and its famous Blarney Stone. To the west lies Killarney, the start pointing of many tourists’ Ring Of Kerry trips, while directly north is Galway, renowned around the world for both its oysters and its entertainment scene. Galway is also the gateway to the imposing Cliffs of Moher. Last but not least, at the very top of Ireland lies the Giant’s Causeway, a natural wonder and the stuff of local legend. Wherever you choose to explore, be sure to opt for self-catering Ireland cottages, apartments or other holiday rentals. With dozens of benefits, including more space, more independence and more privacy for less money, Ireland holiday cottages really are the smart alternative to hotels.
