Short Breaks

Short breaks in Ireland can deliver some tall stories.  A few days will give you as much to talk about as a fortnight somewhere else. Fleeting moments. Lasting memories. Pop over to Ireland soon and discover your very own short break.

Just a short trip from the rejuvenated city of Belfast, Napoleon's Nose apparently provided the inspiration for the sleeping giant in 'Gullivers Travels'. Take in another giant on the Causeway Coastal Route . Tall tales indeed!	Arguably Dingle's most famous resident, why not take a swim with Fungi the dolphin before taking in the scenic contrasts of coastline and mountains that make up South West Ireland.
Even if you don't fancy seeing St Lawrence's preserved heart in the chapel, St Patrick's Cathedral is well worth a visit. However impressive buildings are far from all Dublin has to offer. The Botanic Gardens have lily pads so big you could lie on them.	Twice the height of the Eiffel Tower, the Slieve League Cliffs are the highest in Europe. Donegal in Ireland's North West corner and its myriad of activities, is just waiting to be discovered.
With it's lunar landscape you might think you were on  another planet, but the Burren on Ireland's west  coast is easily accessible for a short break. Pop by another of Irelands's top visitor attractions, the Cliffs of Moher, while you're there	The world famous Waterford Crystal factory is open to visitors, and you can enjoy  a smashing time taking in the pretty coastal villages and historic abbeys all over the south east.
Dublin, Belfast, Cork, Londonderry, Limerick and Galway offer everything you would want in a city break - hip bars and restaurants, museums, theatres, boutique hotels - in unique Irish style.	Wherever you are from and wherever you want to go, it has never been easier to get to Ireland. With over  80 routes from all over Britain to 12 airports in Ireland, or even a romantic sail across the  sea, there's no excuse for not visiting!
