Guest Book : Tour Guide comments - January 2007 ‘Englishman Paul Richard Barton has worked with Globus for 30 years, and he currently leads escorted vacations in the British Isles -- about 20 trips a year. He shares some of his top picks in the UK and Ireland -- from his favorite pub and restaurant to the best places for a family vacation or for romance.’ Here’s what he says about Ireland for each of the following: Best spot for romance: ‘A cottage close to the beach on the west coast of Ireland, such as in Donegal or County Clare.’ Best spot for families: ‘Anywhere in Ireland - It's very family friendly.’ Best shopping: ‘Wherever the locals shop. Also, all over Ireland’.. Best pub: 'The Davy Byrnes in Dublin, Ireland'

Golf: 'Ireland's southwestern coast is home to a pair of the world's most storied Links courses, Bally Bunion and Lahinch. They have come to fruition as championship settings for the game. Between them is a third course - Doonbeg - with a story of its own. Doonbeg's storied seaside dunes were identified by the fathers of Lahinch as early as 1892. Officers of the Scottish Black Watch Regiment, they had searched far and wide for Ireland's perfect coastal site. As legend has it, this dramatic Links Land at Doonbeg was their first choice, but Lahinch was closer to transportation and rail service. Because of 19th century economics, Doonbeg's time would be delayed for another 100 years'. For further details on website addresses, please ask us.
