The Dingle Peninsula

Dingle was such a great stop on our trip. Our accommodations. Tigh Furlow exceeded our expectations. The owners did a wonderful job building this apartment at the back of their property. It was a bit of a walk into town, but that meant it was so peaceful, and we even heard the sheep. Our first night, Moira drove us into town and pointed out the best places. She dropped us off at the waterfront, and we started exploring. We had a nice dinner and then hit the pubs. We heard some great music and met some interesting people. We decided to walk the 1.5 kilometers home along the dark country road, and it was an adventure on its own. We did the Slea Head drive the following day, and the scenery was unbelievable. We stopped at Carhoo Bay Beach for a long beach walk and then checked out Dunbeg Fort. We wandered around Cashel Murphy, a collection of stone beehive huts that is thought to be over 4000 years old. We dropped into the most westerly pub in Ireland, Kruegars of Dunquin, for a late lunch. There were two Hen Parties and one Stag there, so great people watching. All three parties were on buses so they were free to really enjoy themselves. We wandered around Dingle that evening, and all the pubs and restaurants were packed. It really is a wonderful place.Читать далее
