    So what is your favourite Irish county and why?

    Rules: You cannot pick the county you were born in or have lived most of your life in.

    I would have to say my favourite county has to be Wicklow! I spent many happy days and nights camping in Wicklow, beautiful scenery, great make-out spots...happy times :D

    For me its dubland much better than that sh!thole Kilkenny.

    Galway. There's a real bohemian feel to the city, especially in the summer. And it's one of the few Irish countys that doesn't seem to have a massive chip on its shoulder when it comes to Dublin people.

    Wicklow.

    Its beside Dublin, has beautiful mountains and scenary, and its beside Dublin...

    I gotta go with Wicklow. Spent a lot of my childhood there(although a fair amount of it may scar me for the rest of my life:p ) and i still go down there a lot. Great rivers for kayaking and some nice golf courses

    Im a dubliner btw

    Favourit County: Sligo
    Reason: Aine Chambers

    it's a toss up between the mountains of Wicklow and the people in Armagh.

    cork people are nice too, but a certain b&b owner in rathcormack ruined it for me.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 697 ✭✭✭the Shades


    Gotta be Mayo for me, great scenery some great pubs and kind of an arty community that seems to be a well kept secret.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,203 ✭✭✭Heyes


    Kerry without a doubt, it has to be one of the most beautiful counties in ireland, and the people are some of the nicest this wee country of ours has to provide.

    Donegal FTW! Born and bred here and love it! Hate to leave the county for too long :D

    I think the OP requested that you didn't include the county you were born in or live in. :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,034 ✭✭✭✭Giblet

    also really like dingle alot; driving through the burren; car broke down in bray once as well and wasn't very convenient at the time but appreciate it now, quaint little town :)
