Ireland

[suneye]

Being blown away by Ireland. Incredible scenery ! Currently watching the moon light over inch beach and the silhouette of the mountains in the background. We are in the Dingle area and finding it tricky to find park ups . It is a very busy area / time of year and many car parks have barriers. Any tips or places you know of in the area for over night stops or want to throw in some must see places that would be great too. Thanks

Hot chocolate at the beach cafe. Nothing else there. Brilliant.

Does the car park by the marina in Dingle, next to the Fungie sculpture now have height barriers?

 

[trevskoda]

No barriers up norf, you need to get above Galway to wild.

Parts of it do but we passed by Dingle as it was the race weekend and are now parked at Coumeenoole beach Via Ventry and obligatory bee hive houses. Slea Head is another outstanding area for scenery.

We stopped overnight at a lot of the Wild Atlantic Way Discovery Points (there are 188 of them). We were there in April some years ago, it was quiet then.

You'd be surprised how many pubs are moho friendly.
Some even have dump and fill.
If there's music on you'll hve a great night and the craic.
Just check with the bar.. Tell them that if you have your usual night's booze intake, you'll not be able to drive.
Worked a treat for us

When taking up @trevskoda's suggestions, do bear in mind that he assumes that you don't have Windows in your van.

Try the Motorhome Parking Ireland app. There are also a couple of Facebook accounts specific to Ireland that we found useful on our circumnavigation a few years ago.

I used a site called Motorhomecraic a few years ago in Ireland. Same set up as Wild Camping.

If you want some hillwalking, I was out in the Kerry Reeks today (Ireland's highest hills including Carrauntoohil). Trailhead at Lisleibane OK; not Cronin's yard. Decent parking, maybe avoid weekends.

You can't blame the Guinness for Trev nicking his White Westy Terrier.
