Accommodations

Ireland - Southwest

We divide our hotels into three basic categories, Country Homes, First-Class Hotels, and Deluxe Hotels. Below is a brief description of each type of accommodation.

Country Homes - Our most requested style of accommodation. Country homes and manors are small hotels offering fine accommodations and good values. A great way to meet the locals!

First-Class Hotels - Generally three and four-star hotels that offer more spacious accommodations and more facilities than the country homes. Most of our first-class hotels also command great locations close to or overlooking some of the world's best golf courses!

Deluxe Hotels - Elegant hotels for the discerning traveler. If you are looking for the very best the area has to offer, these hotels are for you.
