invergowrie arab Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 Well, western Ireland really. Have 5 days in Ireland in May flying into Dublin and hire car booked. Where should I go? I really fancy west coast and my main interests are hillwalking and trad music so Kerry Mountains and Dingle peninsula seem a good start. Also fancy Galway and Connemara. Just wondering if 2 nights in Dingle and 2 in Galway is trying to cram too much in or if I should just choose the one base? Any advice or other places to go welcome.

MONKMAN Posted March 2, 2017 Share Posted March 2, 2017 Galway is a brilliant night out. Constantly pissing down and windy, although that's not entirely different from the west coast of Scotland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you visit Galway there's a village about an hour and a half away from Galway City called Roundstone, great for fishing and for walking. Galway City is great for a night out. Only other recommendation I can give is to spend as little time in Dublin as possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L. Brilliant Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 Was in Lisdoonvarna fir a wedding in July. Cliffs of Moher are a brilliant spectacle and the Burren in general was interesting. Trad music was everyplace tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just forget the car and spend your time around the temple bar area of Dublin getting pissed. And maybe fit in a tour of the Guinness distillery where you get a free pint at the top at the glass bar with a nice view over the city. I have also heard Limerick is a lovely place full of lovely, well educated people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get right into Jerry's Ring alright.Go to Kilarney and Dingle. Avoid Tralee. Spend a night in Galway but head out to Spiddal and the Gaeltacht area. Lovely stuff..

invergowrie arab Posted May 22, 2017 Author Share Posted May 22, 2017 Update. Dingle brilliant but too many Americans. Galway an amazing night out food , whiskey and music all fantastic and Connemara is brilliant too. Everyone should go. The wife bullied me into a night in Dublin on way home. Busy, dirty, expensive,Guinness theme park. Utter shite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
