Got to love my job- members of the Munster rugby team asleep upstairs and This is the latest trip advisor review tonight - a hearth Felt THANK YOU !! Miriam x Planning to tour the west of Ireland? Then heres a tip - start your holiday with a 40-minute drive south of Shannon airport to the little town of Bruff, where the brightness of the colour-washed houses matches the warmth of the locals. And, in the centre of Main Street youll find the Old Bank - distinctive by the lushness of its window-boxes and an elegant Georgian facade that exudes an aura of gracious living. That atmosphere is intensified by a sparkling interior and individually decorated bedrooms, furnished to a standard of comfort to satisfy the most demanding of lotus-eaters. Then, after a refreshing nights sleep, a further delight awaits you. A superb breakfast, worthy of a five-star rating and seamlessly conjured up by the effervescent Miriam, as she simultaneously dispenses local knowledge and general travel advice with great humour. One further suggestion, spend an extra day in Bruff to marvel at the serene beauty of nearby Lough Gur with its wealth of Bronze Age heritage. Or simply explore the charming landscape that is the homeland of the Fitzgeralds - as in J.F.K. Then youll have time to sample theblack stuff and enjoy the invitation and friendly banter of the local pubs. Whether you extend your stay or not, Ill guarantee the Old Bank is the perfect launch-pad to Blarney, the Ring of Kerry, the Cliffs of Moher, or the savage beauty of Connemara. You can bank on it!
