Emma Clair Kelly shares with us her favourite beautiful places to visit in Ireland, which – so far – have remained firmly off the tourist radar….
There is a reason why so many directors race to Ireland for a whole host of movie locations. Okay I maybe be biased because this is my home country, but Ireland is a place where beauty and history lurk around every corner, from the perfectly preserved Victorian streets of the capital city of Dublin or the purple, glowing wilderness of Sligo immortalised by Yeats in ‘The Lake Isle of Innisfree’ to the famous barren Burren or craggy cliffs of Donegal. There are plenty of ferries to Ireland so whether you chose a weekend of culture in the vibrant cities of Cork, Galway or Dublin or an activity break in one of the many surfing or walking locations around the country, you are bound to be amazed by the breath-taking scenery and the unrivalled friendliness of the Irish people you encounter.
But here’s the inside scéal, if you’re looking for a true Irish experience loaded with the famous Cead Mile Failte, Craic agus Ceol (hundred thousand welcomes, fun and music) and not to mention Guinness!
