Irish Midlands holiday cottages

Ireland's Midlands is a popular tourist destination with people who like to get off the beaten track for their family holidays. The region has idyllic green countryside, with rivers and lakes winding their way through hills and fields, making it an ideal location for a getaway packed with outdoor activities.

Book a holiday cottage in a remote part of the area and you can spend a week cycling on rolling rural roads or pull on your hiking boots to explore the peaks and forests of the Slieve Bloom Mountains. Alternatively, you could organise a short break to play golf on some testing courses in beautiful surroundings or to go fishing on the River Shannon.

There are no sprawling urban areas where the peace and quiet is disturbed.
