  • Our 2010 Vacation in Ireland We Arrived in Dublin on Saturday, May 22 and Made the About 2-Hour Drive West to the Inny Bay B&B in Co
    Ireland 2010 Our 2010 Vacation in Ireland We arrived in Dublin on Saturday, May 22 and made the about 2-hour drive west to the Inny Bay B&B in Co. Westmeath, north of the town of Athlone in the Irish midlands, on Lough Ree. We learned a bit about using a GPS, because had neither a street address nor coordinates for the B&B. We had to get close and stop at a house to ask directions. The B&B is on private land at the end of a 2 km long private road. We took a three hour nap to adjust for jet lag, and then drove to the nearby town of Ballymahon where we had sea bass, and of course, potatoes for dinner. The Inny Bay B&B is a pretty place amid nice scenery, with pastures, swans, the lough and the Inny River. Sunday’s breakfast, like the others at this B&B was huge, with bacon, kippers, etc. We took a morning walk along the Inny River. Then we visited Locke’s Distillery Museum in Kilbeggan, Co. Westmeath. It’s said to be the world’s oldest licensed pot distillery. The works and museum were interesting and the sample of its whiskey was excellent. We next headed for Clonmacnoise, in Shannonbridge, south of Athlone. It’s an early (6th century) Christian site with an Abby ruin, a church (St. Kiernan’s, Church of Ireland), a tower ruin, and a graveyard noted for its Celtic (or “high”) crosses. On our way there we spotted a castle ruin and found the curator there.

  • The Strand Hotel Yangon Its Past Present and Future
    30 May The Strand Hotel Yangon, Myanmar: Its Past, Present and Future in Asia, Destination, Luxury Hotel Review, Travel Blog by JP Licudan 16 Comments 1 Facebook 0 Google+ 1 Pinterest 0 StumbleUpon 0 SHARES The Strand Hotel Yangon: Its Past, Present and Future It was 1901, when the Strand Hotel Rangoon (now Yangon) opened to the public, back in those days when a bed sheet and mosquito nets are considered a luxury. The famous Armenian hotel empire, the Sarkies Brothers (who also built Raffles Hotel Singapore) acquired the property, opened it as the Strand Hotel and made it one of Southeast Asia’s Grand Colonial Hotels, now one of Yangon’s significant icons, The Strand. Check the room rates of the Strand Hotel Yangon on their own website / Booking.com / Agoda / Tripadvisor The Strand Hotel Yangon: Its Past Present and Future – The Exterior of The Strand Yangon (Photo from The Strand) Back then, Rangoon (now Yangon) was an important trade hub for the British empire. Its ideal location in front the historic Irrawaddy river makes it appealing to merchants, business and leisure travellers. Through the years, it went on series of improvements and patronised by royalty, nobility and distinguished personalities. Among them are George Orwell (British novelist) Sir Peter Ustinov (English actor), Somerset Maugham (British Novelist), Prince Edward VIII of the British Monarchy, David Rockefeller (CEO of Chase) and Mick Jagger of the Rolling Stones. It is a privilege for my name to be included on the guest register together with these famous names who have all stayed at the Strand.

    THE BEST PLACES TO STAY G OThe L D L I S T 142 hotels that change the way we see the world THE 142 HOTELS AROUND THE WORLD WE ALWAYS RECOMMEND— AND COME BACK TO AGAIN AND AGAIN When you work at Condé Nast Traveler, the one question that’s always being THE LIST asked of you—by friends, your therapist, strangers you’ve only just met—isn’t Where should I go? More often than not it’s Where should I stay? As hotel obsessives, we get it. A great hotel isn’t simply a place to spend the night. It’s about the super-secret perfect bar just off the lobby, or the wallpaper in your suite that makes you want to redecorate your entire home. And if you love a hotel enough, 2016 it can become a reason in itself to go. ¶ For our twenty-second annual Gold List, we offer you our global short list—the recommendations we give without even thinking about it.

I warmly welcome our Stakeholder Groups, and I look forward to presenting our vision for the future of the Birr Castle Estate to you in this information memorandum. Birr, like so many other magnificent country estates in the U.K. and Ireland, proves extremely expensive to preserve, to maintain and to run on day to day basis. Successful efforts have been made to date to ensure revenue is being generated through the estate to cover our basic cash flow requirements. To date, increasing annual visitors to the estate, a thriving museum and science centre, the development of the LOFAR Programme within the grounds, a retail shop with growing sales, and one of the most successful food and beverage offerings in Birr are all testament to the progress that continues to be made.

  • Ireland's 50 Best Placesto Stay2020
    IRELAND’S 50 BEST PLACES TO STAY 2020 From hip hotels to cool campsites, self-catering stunners to glamping escapes, Pól Ó Conghaile, Nicola Brady and Thomas Breathnach have the year’s hottest accommodation list his is not a normal list. Overthe pastweeks and months, we’ve been travelling the length and breadth of this island, from Donaghdee to Dunmanus Bay and Dub- lin to Dingle. We’ve visited hotels, B&Bs, country houses and campsites, mapped trends, and painstakinglywhittled findings T down to our Fab 50 finalists. St Patrick’s Week was our deadline. That’s traditionally when the tourism season kicks off, and with it the Irish Independent’s annual list of Ireland’s best places to stay. As long days lead to short breaks, here’s a selection you can trust. It’s not gathered via Google. We’ve spoken with owners and staff. We’ve listened to our readers. This is the third year of our Fab 50, and by now you’ll know we don’t focus on the usual suspects. We look for game-changing new arrivals, places that are stretching our understanding of the staycation now rather than trad- ing on former glories. We favour properties that continue to evolve and innovate (be it a design tweak, or a tasty new menu), and purposefully leave room for the unsung heroes of hospitality — from the Northern Irish couple who took a punt on log cabins to a sparkling penthouse in Cork or cosy shepherd’s huts in Cavan. It’s a distinctly Irish list, so we’ve also looked for creative investment in Irish design, art, food and community.
