This area is greatly
favoured by the Irish themselves as a holiday destination and there is certainly
a special quality about it -from its wild and unspoilt landscape, a wonderful
coastline etched by the Atlantic, to the lively hustle and bustle of Galway City
and the spectacular scenic beauty County Mayo - location for the film Ryan's Daughter.
