    To counter the worst place in Ireland thread I think we need one on the best place.

    Nothing springs to mind now for me but I will come back to this after I have a little think about it.

    :rolleyes:

    Galwegians (and foreigners living here) are so dillusional about the place it is unreal. It might be alright but for the weather. I couldnt live there if you paid me.


    For me a boiling hot drunken summers day trip out to Bray wandering around the place hammered, nothing like it.

    Castlegregory (sp?) on a summer bank holiday weekend. Anywhere in Kerry really, to me it has a different culture, it's like being abroad


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 880 ✭✭✭HAPPYGIRL


    Kerry is the best, followed closely by Clare.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 177 ✭✭Dashticle


    Had good craic in Baltimore last year, eyeing up the yachty-totty and so on.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 33,754 ✭✭✭✭Princess Consuela Bananahammock


    Hmmm..... it;s like to trying to put forward a pofessional footabller to go on Mastermind... lemme think about it for a while....

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.

    Ah now, it's better than Laytown alright but not as good as the mighty Julianstown!

    :cool:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 420 ✭✭berliner


    Tallaght.
    Wann be mental to go out there!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,081 ✭✭✭✭chopperbyrne


    It's far better than most of the places mentioned in this thread.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 33,754 ✭✭✭✭Princess Consuela Bananahammock


    Yes. And Rio Ferdinant for Mastermind. That's two birds with one stone.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 508 ✭✭✭SW81


    Ah sure everyone's just going to say where they're from!

    Not me, I live in Kildare but I think West Cork and Kerry are by far the best places in Ireland. It's like a different world down there, brilliant. So beautiful.

    I really liked Connemara last time I was there, same with the Northern coast of Donegal.

    Best place in terms of what though?

    Scenery/relaxation? If so, I'd go with the above.

    Things to do? (This goes to Dublin)
    Best place to go if you want a migrane? (Cork)
    Best place to go if you're looking for a fix? (inner city North Dublin)

    ballinskelligs, kerry

    No, it's not. It's in the UK. Stay on topic.

    The answer to this thread is in the thread title. :rolleyes:

    Of course it is. It stands for, "The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland."

    What I meant was with the new rules requiring a passport to travel between the North and the 'UK mainland' it may as well not be.

    Best place I've been as an adult has been Listowel.
    Fermoy would be a close second, although Rathcormack down the road was a complete hole.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,379 ✭✭✭Jimbo


    I think there are alot of places around the West Cork/Kerry area that are really nice


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,543 ✭✭✭✭Supercell


    Ballyhack in Wexford, beauty of the place takes your breath away on a summers day.

    Have a weather station?, why not join the Ireland Weather Network - http://irelandweather.eu/



  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,469 ✭✭✭guinnessdrinker


    Bushmills!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 784 ✭✭✭zootroid


    Parts of Kerry (although Tralee is a kip), Galway, actually the west in general is quite nice (except Limerick). And Kilkenny of course!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 170 ✭✭Buzz Buzz


    Galway of course!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,004 ✭✭✭IanCurtis


    Yeah I'd say Galway too....tis a pretty funky place.

    (Worst is Dundrum - Jesus, talk about crammed....oh another thread for this!)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,498 ✭✭✭✭cson


    Portumna ftw. :p


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,921 ✭✭✭2 stroke


    Best place in Ireland? It's got to be under an Irish woman.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,656 ✭✭✭✭Mushy


    Has to be my bed! Always a great place.

    Honestly, I'd say Valentia Island, just of Kerry. Such a great place, love going there.
