What’s the best way to get to the Aran Islands? Doolin, Rossaveal or Galway City?

Doolin is quickest

Any decent hotels near Doolin?

Doolin Hotel itself would be grand, then you’ve the Falls in Ennistymon or the Coast in Lahinch. Most places jointed with Ukrainian guests currently.

Gregans Castle or the Wild Honey Inn are close by if you want to indulge yourself food-wise

Trabolgan any good for a 4 year old and 1 year old lads?

Also, in terms of car hire for 2-3 weeks, what are the cheapest/best options? Keeping in mind I’m broke.

Dont, biggest kip in Ireland. Bring them to leahys farm and fota

Falls is an apt name for that hotel as it’s about to fall down.

I heard a lad last week aghast at being asked €1770 to rent a Nissan Micra at Dublin airport for 2 days.
The land of a thousand welcomes me hole. I was going to ring in and offer him mine for the week for €700.
I’d invest some time into researching that portion of your query, gouging season officially open.

Ordered crab claws without looking at price yday in a place in West cork. 27 quid for 9 of them.

Prices are gone mad everywhere but shur, record inflation trumps even greed at the minute I’d say

You’d be talking about €500 or €600 a day in Dingle for a good experience I 'd say

I can’t bloody wait tbh. Hope you are well.

Paid 70 for a meal for nine in Italy last week including beer wine and coffee.
Ireland is absolutely mental.

Yet Irelands population is increasing at a rate of knots and Italys is in decline? Go figure.

People see the headline rate, not the small print.
Ireland has hugely generous child support also.
