Captured so eloquently by Christy Moore many years ago but still freshly evocative once you cross the Shannon and escape the siege of Ennis down the wonderful coast whichever route you take via Lisdoon on a Friday afternoon, skirt past the Cliffs where brave souls dice with crashing waves on through Lehinch to catch more surf, whistling past the tunes from the pubs of Miltown Malbay and along the wild Atlantic coast to one of Ireland’s hidden gems
Next stop New York, okay maybe the Aran Islands for a pitstop but before you set sail, explore the rugged coastline at the edge of the European seaboard and wander among the dunes (hard hat required to escape the holiday golfers) or just let them at it and unwind in a self indulgent soak in the luxurious spa with nothing bit the noise of wild wintry westerlies outside your Romanesque bath.
