  1. Yeah but you can’t get a lucozade and chicken fillet roll or breakfast roll at the Cliffs. Checkmate.

    (Ive no doubt theres a Centra about 5 feet from the cliffs, but you cant get the aforementioned items AT the Cliffs, so my point stands)

  2. People in Ireland don’t actually tour the country to find the beautiful areas, they just hang out wherever they are at.

  3. Genuinely I’d have swapped it around a bit. The scenic pic is how it seems people expect much of Ireland to be, but the little urban vibe is the reality that I’ve always seen described by irish people.

  4. I was stunned by the car dependence when I visited Ireland. The people are wonderful and the natural landscapes are beautiful, but the overwhelming impression left by my visit was of motorways, car parks and service stations. Cars cars cars wherever you look. There’s so much potential though given the landscapes you have, Ireland could be a paradise.

  5. I’m so guilty of this. Tell my non Irish gf all the time about the wonders of Ireland and show her pics of The Rock of Cashel. But if she ever comes to Ireland, she’ll be getting a tour of the local Spar.

  6. To be fair, you can say that about quite literally everywhere on the planet other than maybe Antarctica. There’s always a convenience store, a petrol station or something bit utilitarian modernity, unless you’re in some kind of absolutely remote place or preserved wilderness.

  7. If you never walk the 5 minutes to leave a town then sure. Anyone with any sense knows you arent going to find beautiful nature vistas staring at a centre.

  8. That Centra should actually be on ‘Places to visit in Ireland’ at this point…. Tis a lovely Centra tho
