Six days and five nights of fun await you on our Ireland holiday next year.  Enjoy two full days in the heart of Dublin, the most vibrant of cities.  Explore its amazing history and when you need a break cross the Halfpenny Bridge to the Temple Bar area where each pub provides live music daily.  Its a city well known for its craic and its friendly folk.             With so many attractions Dublin will captivate you and Molly Malone will bring a twinkle to the eye of all who see her!!

Outside the city enjoy a visit to the Irish National Stud Farm and see if you can spot the next Grand National winner; take a trip around Dublin Bay and enjoy rejuvenating sea breezes.  Wander around Malahide Castle, check out the Japanese Gardens and don’t forget the lovely towns of Bray and Kildare.  There’s something to tempt everyone.

The hotel offers half board accommodation plus entertainment, ending with a Grand Celtic night with music, dancing and laughter as a  finale to our break!

Booking opens on the 27th of June at 09:30 and we offer a pay monthly scheme to help spread the cost of the holiday.
