Somewhere Rural, Peaceful and Beautiful

Sheryl - so glad you posted this! I also have the same "requirements" - not big on hopping from one place to the other every day - prefer to just stay in 2 or 3 rural seaside places and soak up the culture. I couldn't figure out how to word it though. I'm so glad people had some good ideas, I've printed them out.

Hey,

Somewhere rural, peaceful and Beautiful? You should try Newcastle, County Down in Northern Ireland. It is right on the sea shore, and it also has the biggest mountains in Northern Ireland that drop right down to the sea. Simply stunning. Also you can walk along the beach for miles out of the town. It has a five star hotel, and some Bed and Breakfasts, and also some apartments to choose from.

This is where i'd recommend! Hope it helps,
David

Maybe Rosslare strand in Wexford!!! Right on the beach and depending when you want to go, can be pretty quiet regards tourists....Not far from wexford town either which has a nice feel to it...would tie in nicely too with Dunmore east if you decided on a change of scenery...

Rural, peaceful and beautiful = County Leitrim. Nothing spectacular, just laid back and friendly, Ireland does not get much more rural and peaceful. A good base for visiting the west and northwest coasts, and some great pubs and decent restaurants.

try this website imagineireland.com great for self catering lodging will let you look in all area's of Ireland most places start on saturdays but will be well worth looking into.do the west coast and east coast to watch sunsets and sunrises,and don't forget the north..
