how long you going for,
are you doing north and south (its 117 mile from belfast to dublin),
do you want to set up base camp or move about
what time of year (roughly)
are you taking bikes

ps if in dublin you have to see the heure in the sewer

+1 for Cork, although I've always enjoyed Dublin when I've been there too.

If your going south beyond Dublin to Bray/Wicklow then go a wee bit further to Wexford and Waterford but anywhere in Ireland is goooood :p

Cork is nice and not too far from Dublin

I've been to the West Coast and that's really nice.The Cliffs of Mohen are one place you should go if you can. Breathtaking.

Wherever you go you will find you always get a good welcome wherever you go

If you do go, take your wet weather gear, as Ireland is green for a very good reason

There's loads of good guest houses where you'll get a slap up breakfast every morning, you'll come back a real bloater :p

Visit biker.ie , and use the SEARCH button.

Be careful on the roads, the recent weather will have created a lot of potholes.
