admin

When it comes to winter getaways with groups of friends, staying in Ireland is a great option that is too often overlooked.

Not only does it eliminate the stress and cost of organising flights for the whole gang, it can also give you the opportunity to meet up with friends from whatever area you choose (it is Ireland after all, you’re never too far from someone you know).

Hotel prices can tend to be prohibitive during the peak winter season, but the growing popularity of rental platforms like Airbnb means that there are plenty of other options.
