Christmas is Coming……

We all know that Christmas is the biggest festive period of the year here in Ireland.   Most people who take a break tend to be looking for traditional cosy warmth.  The difficulty is that not too many good hotels are open for these precious days of the year.  Here are two fabulous ones to choose from and where there are real log and turf fires and all the trimmings

Bushmills Inn:  Visit The Bushmills Inn website and check out their Christmas package.  Here lunch on the Big Day is traditional Turkey plus haunch of Venison as an alternative, both accompanied with all the trimmings such as ‘pigs in a blanket’ and ‘pickled red cabbage’ – yum yum.  Further info can be obtained on  http://www.bushmillsinn.com/files/download/christmas2015.pdf

Cashel House Hotel:   Over in Connemara in Cashel House Hotel you will enjoy a Buffet Lunch on Christmas Day followed by a House Party style Christmas Dinner that evening with local musicians providing the music.  On St. Stephen’s Day it is recommended to avail of a brisk walk along the Atlantic coastline to work off the previous day’s excesses before retreating back to the cosiness of a log fire.  For more information visit:  http://secure.cashelhouse.ie/bookings/packages2
