Top travel writer names Ireland's North West as "The place to visit in 2011"

Print

Sligo Yeats statueThe North West of Ireland makes it on the Travel Hotlist of Ireland for 2011 in an article in last Saturday's Irish Independent by top travel writer, Pól Ó Conghaile..

"We think 2011 will be the year the north west finally hits the big time. The new M3 and M4 motorways have shortened journey times from the east, the European Surfing Championships return to Bundoran in September, and the region has just been voted European Golf Destination of the Year 2011.  Throw in Inishowen, Yeats Country, Sligo town, the Slieve League Peninsula, Cavan's lakelands, Glenveagh National Park and hotels such as Harvey's Point, and a dose of northern exposure sounds very tempting indeed."
