Dear Ireland,
There are places in the world that stay with you—but Ireland is the kind that follows you home. It lingers in the sound of a fiddle, the warmth of a firelit pub, the soft echo of old stories passed from one generation to the next. For many of us, this island isn't just a destination—it’s a memory we haven’t made yet. A longing that feels oddly familiar. Whether you’re walking coastal paths, exploring ruined castles, or simply dreaming of your first visit, Ireland has a way of making strangers feel like they’ve come home.

County Cork - next to Counties Kerry on one side and Waterford on the other . Also close to Tipperary. I especially love Kinsale but Dingle is right behind that. So many beautiful places in Ireland in answer to this question!

What Town Was The Quiet Man filmed in?
Even though the movie was made in 1952, when Irish American director John Ford shot his classic movie The Quiet Man in Ireland in and around the village of Cong, County Mayo, and on the grounds of Cong’s Ashford Castle, interest in the movie has never been stronger. The village of Cong and the surrounds have become a pilgrimage of sorts for lovers of this movie.
