I Adore Adare – A Stunning Town in Ireland

Our first view of Adare as we drove into town.

We were told we would fall in love with some of the small towns in Ireland just by driving through and we did, as soon as we entered Adare. Nicknamed Ireland’s Prettiest Village, we know we are not the first people to decide add a night in this town.

It’s an adorable village in County Limerick, Ireland, and best shared in photos. Take a look and see why we spent a night here:

Hubby and I took a romantic stroll on the beautiful grounds of the Adare Manor – no wonder it is so popular for weddings.

This photo was taken by Mic, who we met along the road. He and hubby are both engineers, so the level of geek speak was over my head. But I do love the photo. I want his camera, it makes me look thinner.

I loved the Irish music, and found it really warm and inviting to have the band at a table like everyone else, rather than up on a stage. Look closely on the wall, there is an autographed New Zealand All Blacks jersey.

Gotta love it!

What do you think, did we make a good choice? Do you adore Adare too?

    This looks wonderful. The views here are just the type I love to come across while driving too. Mick took a great picture of you both.

      Mic the geek here 🙂
      Glad you like the photo… you both look great.
      It’s just the camera on the iPhone, but works great.
      Mic.

        Thanks again Mic. We love the photo. I can’t remember the camera, but I am really impressed it was an iphone. Maybe I will take more photos using mine and leave the good camera at home. 🙂

    Love ll the stone work I guess there was an abundance of rock needing clearing for fields used to make walls to keep out marauders. Yes love that the band is on para with every one else, makes it more like musicians just having fun.

    You made a great choice. If you’re going to Dublin be careful with your stuff. Lots of thieves there and I heard that from someone that was born and raised there.

    Have a terrific WW. 🙂
