Regions of the British Isles - North West Ireland

From dramatic walks along one of Donegal's sensational sea cliffs to a romp through Ireland's ancient past, the North West offers some of the best sights and scenery around.

The North West's landscape has been remarkably unaffected by the passage of time and is a striking mixture of beautiful coastlines, rambling hills, magnificent mountains and lovely lakes, all of which are ripe for discovery.

Those with an interest in literature will be spoiled for choice. The charming county of Sligo is the birthplace of one of Ireland's greatest poets, WB Yeats; while County Monaghan provided a lifetime of inspiration to esteemed poet Patrick Kavanagh.

On top of that, there's an abundance of top-class accommodation with elegant country houses set amidst spectacular gardens, excellent restaurants, and pubs that you'll never want to leave. And if you've got any time left after all that eating, drinking and relaxing, you can always try your hand at golfing, angling, biking, cruising, and even catch a wave at Donegal's finest surfing spot.
