Why go?
Eire - the Republic of Ireland - is an island of lush green hills,
crumbling castles, rugged granite mountains, fine Georgian
architecture and sleepy fishing villages, all surrounded by the
brooding waters of the Irish Sea and Atlantic Ocean. Full of
mystery, myths and legends, it evokes images of everything from
leprechauns and Blarney stones to music festivals and perfect pints
of Guinness.
i-escape is in the process of researching and reviewing all the
best places to stay and things to do in Ireland, so you won't yet
find the same detailed destination guides as for our other
countries. Meantime, we are adding hotel and guesthouse reviews
(with our usual level of detail!) as and when they are ready. So
keep coming back to our pages, or drop us a line if you want to
know what's in the pipeline.
