Staycation - Limerick's hard on for anything Kerry

You’re right, that was in letterfrack. It was this place just outside Westport:

Was top notch grub. Didn’t take bookings and but if a wait but well worth it

Actually preferred that to the food truck you mention. View from food truck unparalleled tho

Probably won’t get away on my own and I wouldn’t have the work done to attack it. I haven’t ran in 6 weeks for a variety of excuses.

Will do the Pirate Park Saturday.
Head out the Louisberg direction Sunday and just bring the children up as far as statue at Croagh Patrick.
Achill on Monday
Then home via Lenaun on Tuesday.

Might do the Greenway when we get up on Friday.

Bring midgie repellent. Lots of it.

I foolishly roused myself from my bed to do it one morning after making a pig if myself on Matt Molloy’s porter the night before.

My back all but seized up 10 minutes in, I left the rest of them off and went back to the car and slept.

We’ll be in Pirate Park week after next.

Killary fjord boat trip and the Heron food truck - we’ll do that too.

The mosquito nets for Delphi have arrived -

I second Keem, it’s class. If you are doing the greenway, and only doing a bit of it, don’t start in Westport. First part of it is shite. Start out the far side.

Heading to Mulranny the week of the 23rd and was just perusing the Pirate Park and Killary fjord boat trip sites when I read these posts.
I will take a keen interest in how you get on

Ireland is a fucking rip off

You can, I was there a few weeks ago. It’s a very relaxing place and we had a great day, but I’d say kids any older than 9 would find it underwhelming.

We are camping on site for a couple of the nights so should be able to come and go during the day. I was there years ago but it looks like they’ve added a lot of stuff since then.

Weren’t you lucky you got out to reasonably-priced Lahndan?

Go halfway up Croagh Patrick with kids.
Think there more to do in Westport house outside pirate park too.

Last time we were there, there was activities like Archery etc. I think the house itself is closed for renovations at the moment.

Yeah did loads of that a few years ago and could walk through grounds and come out far side to harbour

any steer for Kerry, day trips from Killarney for 4 under 8?

Kennedy’s pet farm is very good. https://kennedyspetfarm.com/
Dingle and the Aquarium is about an hour away.
