Is it just me?

Is it just me, or is it harder to find hotels in the last while?

I'm looking at places like outliers in Cork, Clare, Kerry.

Hotels which always had space in may, June, July now seem to have nothing?

at over 300 quid a pop it looks like i'm priced out for the summer other than special occasions

Is that it?

I know I stayed in a hotel in limerick recently and that was the case.

It seems to have e upped the price massively too, but just can't find in places I want

Tourists are returning in earnest after a 2-year break. Refugees are being housed in hotels. Some of our "can't/won't take care of themselves" are housed in hotels.

It's not just Ireland, by the way. Numerous tourist hotspots around the world have been swamped with bookings in the past several months.

Buy a tent. Although those are probably in short supply as well

No problem. We picked and area yesterday. Rang the First of out choices of hotel this morning and are now booked for 3 days at the end of May/start of June. So, there is availability.
