Accommodation

We stay for seven nights in three- and four-star hotels, selected for their character, location and unique charm. The accommodations we usually use are listed below. Dublin: Ashling Hotel or The Hendrick Hotel (night 1) Both are close to the River Liffey in the heart of the capital and within walking distance of the finest restaurants, cafes and bars in the city. Killarney: Abbey Lodge (nights 2-4) This quaint 15-room B&B provides a traditional warm welcome, while décor includes interesting antiques and art. It’s also ideally located for our adventures and just over a five-minute walk to the historic town centre of Killarney. Doolin: The Lodge Doolin (nights 5-7) This family-run property is the result of 20 years’ hard work from owners Niall and Deirdre, who transformed rustic limestone buildings into a welcoming retreat. The property is in a scenic spot, wrapped by the beautiful Irish countryside, and yet it’s only a five-minute walk into the village of Doolin.
