    well we did go but we were booked into the hotel opposite it as part of the whole thing,just when we were going up they told us that that the hotel cant take us because there is some problem! sounded really like some sort of made up excuse by them as they really wanted us to stay in there cell like hostel which we ended up staying and was really rubbish! what im really trying to say is that they cant advertise the hotel accomdation as part of the adventure package when you dont get it they had the same excuse for the hotel for another local school!!(so it was'nt a once off) also the activites there were very poor and there wasnt much of a varitey..really everything that they say in the leaflet and on the website about the westport place is a load of rubbish!(www.horizonireland.com) DONT go there you will be very dissapointed!!!

    "Every" school, Group and Individual that has visited our Centre this year (2007) have filled out a questionaire and all have quoted that their stay was "Excellent" and that they would return to us again next year! That must be a good indication that we are doing things well!


    Joe Fitz doesn't seem to agree with that!:D

    Just got home last night from it, and Joe Fitz is obviously crazy

    the rooms were hilarious,you couldn't even stretch out your arms they were so narrow, but it was clean and basic
    the instructors are awesome, they're great craic and really cool
    you NEVER stop doing activities, up at 7AM and don't stop until 11PM except for meals
    you're hiking up mountains, canoeing, surfing, rock climbing....
    Every girl I went with wants to go back !
