West Coast of Ireland
Hope I'm not too late: here goes you can stay in Enniskillen, Co Fermanagh either at the Lakeland Forum leisure centre. From there you can carry on to either Rosses Point just outside of sligo and pitch up outside the Yeats Country Hotel or the Golf club. If you do, visit Harry's Bar which is a delight. You can then progress on to Westport and stay on the Quay there is a range of eateries which do excellent seafood. From there move south and you can stay in the car park in a village called Milltown, County Galway. Then go to the town of Kilkee where you can stay on the carpark overlooking the bay - a beautiful setting! here you are about 6 miles from the Tarbert Ferry which will take you over the river Shannon and into Kerry. This is a wonderful route and I really hope you enjoy it.

I was interested to know how you got on as we are planning to go at the end of JUne.
Was it easy to find places?
thanks JUliana

You will find no problem finding places on the west coast to stay and if you get the weather we are having at the minute there is not a better place to be
