With so many places to discover and explore, you’re bound to have a wonderful time during a stay at one of these properties for Ireland mini breaks. 

For example, County Cork can make for an excellent place to consider staying. Found in the South West of Ireland, it’s the country’s largest county and a magnet for international tourists.

On a clear day, you might even be able to spot the mountains of Snowdonia in North Wales if you’re high up enough!
