So You Are Planning To Visit Ireland
Short trips can often be rushed and you need a holiday to get over it when you get home! You do not want to waist time travelling to and from towns. I would advise you to pick one location and spend your time travelling to all the tourist spots that surround it.
‘So where would you recommend we visit?!’ There really is so much to see and do, but if you have a limited time to be here, the best places to choose are probably those that are close to airports / ports. There are very cheap airlines in and out of Ireland where you could fly to London, Paris etc for as little as 1cent (not including taxes and airport charges, which they fail to tell you!!) But you have quite alot of choice.
Choosing Accommodation
There are plenty of Bed and Breakfast homes around all of Ireland. Many of them are very homely and not expensive to stay in.
Off season it is possible to get very good self-catering accommodation for a short stay. Look especially for cottage rentals, but plan to eat out. Nearly all pubs (and every town in Ireland has about 20) do great pub lunches and they are not expensive. Find a pub that has live Irish music at night, so you get a bit of the culture!
Whatever standard of accommodation you choose, stay in the same one for your whole trip, moving during such a short stay is not worth the hassle.

Thanks for the interesting information about traveling to Ireland as plan to travel there sometime soon it will come in handy.
You’re right. Here in Ireland there really is so much to see and do… Hard to choose one single location. There are majectic viewpoints all over Ireland with breath taking sceneries: cliffs, hills, mountains, …
Visit the beautiful town of Tralee, located a few miles away from Cork!
I can imagine that there is a lot of beautful things to see there and if you are planning on a short visit to Ireland you would probably want to just focus on a small part and enjoy it. Nice Artile
