County Arms Birr - Birr
Wander emerald shores from Dublin’s cozy B&B to Galway’s charming guesthouse as misty dawn awakens centuries of legend. Lose yourself in castle hotels and glamping domes beside ancient lighthouses, then drive coastal roads from Shannon Airport through Connemara’s windswept grace. Kiss the Blarney Stone at Cork’s storied castle, feel the Atlantic spray at the Cliffs of Moher, and raise a pint in the Guinness Storehouse. Cruise the Ring of Kerry at sunset, sail to Skellig Michael’s silent heights.
