- ANTIQUE
AND CRAFT TRAIL: Any glance at Ireland’s antiquities –
it’s great churches, the jewellery worn by Celts, the intricacies of
illuminated manuscripts like the Book of Kells- will show what a long
tradition of sheer artistry exists here, what a delight of pattern,
shape& texture. This tradition continues today with Crystal,
Pottery, Bog Wood Carvings, and Silk and Linen art. Spend a day
visiting artists and crafts people’s studios.

Christy O’Connor Jr.- designed Glasson Golf course or the spectacular
Galway Bay Golf Club.
- EQUESTRIAN:
Scenic trail rides, forest and lakeshore treks, cross-country riding,
jumping and riverside picnics. Perhaps time enough for a day at the

Course, Game or Fly-fishing. There is a Gillie service available. Try
for perch, pike, eel or trout.

country lanes. An ideal way to explore country estates

Family or Club Style Charter is a perfect casual cruise choice for
