I have enjoyed reviewing your website ; it has been very helpful for a 1st timer going to Ireland the end of August. My wife & I will be driving. I have reviewed and appreciate Tony2Phones N59 route and would like to plan that drive one day.
Leaving on AM flight on Day 10
any suggestions for accommodations in Howth ,,, if I decide to stay there...
Thank you again for your advice...
9 full days to tour Ireland Itinerary
Dublin
Dublin
Kinsale(stay) seeing cork cobh
Kinsale
Dingle stopping in Killarney & Gap of Dunloe
Dingle
Galway(stay) stopping maybe in Adare?? & for sure Cliff of Mohr
Galway seeing Connemara ?? unless other suggested overnight town.
Back to Dublin or Howth the last Day?? Open to suggestions?
Or Clifden to see Connemara area for one of those days ?
There are many people who like to cover a large area with as few moves as possible..My preference is to mix and match one and two night stays..
I am not sure that Kinsale is special enough for 2 nights and would take a night from there and split the trip down from Dublin, Kilkenny is a good option.
If you plan on seeing a lump of the national park and Killarney I would pinch that night from Dingle, stay in Killarney rather than push on.
Getting from Dingle to Galway seeing Adare, Bunratty, Cliffs of Moher is a full day, doing a Connemara loop or Aran Isles tour on the mid day are both options.
Howth or an Airport hotel with a shuttle makes more sense than staying in the city if you have an early departure,.
just suggestions.
