Hi -- first time poster here. I've learned a lot from reading these forums, so thanks. I've hit a potential snag in my itinerary for 8 days in late September (Doolin-Dingle-Kinsale-Ennis) and could use some help. The snag is that many of the recommended B&Bs in Doolin are already booked up (Cullinan's, O'Connor's, Atlantic View). Waiting for responses for a few more (Daly's, Sea View, etc). But if I can't find rooms in places where we'd like to stay, I suppose I'll have to rejigger the plan.

Anyone have suggestions for an alternate first night stay? We get into Shannon in the am (on a Saturday), will drive our rental car over to the Cliffs and have lunch in Doolin, probably, then ... what? Drive to Ballyvaughan even though it's north and we're driving south the next day to Dingle? Any ideas would be really appreciated.
