Cobh - 1 of the 20 most charming towns in Ireland.

[Henri LeHat]

Russell Heights......charming.

Lol. Was at a party up there one night and the big windows at the front of the house were put in.

It makes the list invalid tbh.

Not necessarily. It depends on whether we're talking about "Ireland", the island (which is what most people would understand it to be) or "Ireland" as in the description of the state in the Constitution.
Anyway, we can agree, I'm sure, that Ireland the island is a pretty nice place, scenerywise.

No entries for the occupied six counties, I see.
The country may be partitioned but there are more than a few places "up there" that are well worth visiting.

That place is a hellhole.

Cobh is woeful.
Like a dying British seaside town.
Needs a cuisine revolution and would be a goldmine.
It needs an identity update.

A food hub perhaps?

That place is a hellhole.

In what way, Pepe?

I escaped from Spike.

Can't say too much about it.

Don't see how Killarney can be regarded as charming. The surrounding area and scenery yes but the town itself is like a leprechaun theme park.

Or Dingle for that matter...way overrated.

And that is where the money lies. People come for the leprechauns, tiny houses, front doors you have to kneel to get into.

Anyhoo clifden wins Imo. Best town in the country for what the tourists actually want when they come to Ireland.

Most of Cobh are McGraths
