The film "My Pub Runneth Over” presents a comprehensive journey to Britain and Ireland, including England (London, Stonehenge, walled cities & a castle), Wales, Ireland (kiss the Blarney Stone, Dublin, Cliffs of Moher), and Scotland (Edinburgh, the highlands, bagpipes & Loch Ness), plus interviews, and, of course, pubs.

The video can be seen on the web, if you have a high speed internet connection.

If you want to stay in a Castle but not at the price of an arm and a leg try Clontarf Castle -

My fiance and I stayed there a few months ago and it was great. Nice sized rooms and it still had the conforts of a hotel but a little different as it was a castle.

It wasn't far from the centre. There is a shuttle but we took taxis as they were cheap as it was not far from town.

They have a nice bar and everything.

Try it out.

I recommend the Western part of Ireland. I fly into Shannon and do the Ring of Kerry, Dingle Peninsula and Connemara. Some of the most breathtaking scenery in the entire world.

Some of these are found in the self catering holiday websites. Some come on referrals and advice offered from friends. The best cottages in Ireland, though are the ones you find, experience, give outstanding tourist services and great food to match, and that you want to return to again and again, in memories and in real time.

Rural Ireland Breaks include a variety of destinations, but are most likely more low key than a traditional vacation setting. For a beautiful, quiet and rural vacation setting, choose County Limerick. The landscape is breathtaking with Ballyhoura Mountains as well as the Golden Vale. A stream of beautiful towns surround the area including Adare and Castleconnell. Visit many of the elaborate churches. Located on the River Shannon, the Atlantic Ocean is a few miles away. The thriving vacation spot for breakers is progressive in that it offers something for every traveler.
