We are just finishing a 2 1/2 month tour of Ireland and apart from this final weekend, we have booked cottages all the way. As we spent 6 weeks in Galway and Mayo in Jan-Feb, and then came back to tour round Ireland in March (visiting Tipperary, Kilkenny, Carlow, Wexford, Wicklow, Cork, Kerry and Limerick), we have stayed in 10 cottages altogether, and about 8 out of 10 were with Shamrock.

If you're looking for a particularly great place to stay, try the cottage in Clogheen, South Tipperary. We stayed at Castlegrace Cottage for a fortnight and it was fab! Though as it had 4 bedrooms and is huge, it was more expensive (拢248/week, I think) than what we usually go for, but it was by far the best house we ever stayed in. It's owned by one of the anglo-irish gentry, the Grubbs, and they own the mountain nearby. Really lovely people, they stay in a mansion up a long driveway across the other side of the road, so they're on hand if you need them but don't intrude.

The area of South Tipperary is not much visited compared to other parts of Ireland such as Kerry, Cork and Galway, but it has loads to offer. The house is in the Vee valley, a very scenic area and you can get to loads of interesting places very easily (this is why we chose it). It was full of historic ruins and great walking areas, and as most tourists don't think of visiting that area, it's pleasantly not overrun.

Out of everywhere we've visited, this was the favourite house and area of both me and my man and I totally recommend the house if it's in your budget and the area no matter what!
