Im half Irish, half English, but consider Ireland my home..
Ireland is a beautiful country; a myriad of lovely, and quite often deserted beaches, rolling green countryside, quaint villages that are still unspoilt by tourism, excellent fishing, a relatively small population so there are STILL areas that are quiet and natural, a temperate climate so crops and flowers can be grown all year round..
Delightful restaurants by the sea and by the loughs, centuries of history and historical sites to explore..

Tell us why it is so great and worth a visit.....
The Lake District The Peak District The Yorkshire Dales The North York Moors The Cotswolds The Fens The Vale of York Northunmbrian Coastline The West Country The South Downs Salisbury Plain The Welsh Marches (most of which is in England) The Forest of Bowland
Geographically as diverse a place as you get, given the comparatively small area.
Or should I pop over the border into Scotland or Wales, the list goes on and on. And all within a few hours drive from my front door.
London sells itself to any tourist... France sells itself...
Scotland the most beautiful tundra and open spaces.... So much to do.... A zillion years of history and tradition..... Places to see are in no shortage... Tastes, smells and touch to awaken.... Its own sounds... The home of Golf..... Learn about its heroes and those who shaped the world.... A great welcome to Caledonia for one and all....
We are just about to get the Wooden Spoon in Rugby

I have seen quite a few places on this planet Tam.
But non of them compare to The Highlands Of Scotland, and thats not just my opinion. A wild and rugged landscape of true splendor and stunning beauty.

Canada is a big beautiful country. There are different sceneries depending on which part you are in. I was born and raised in Ontario which has the best view of Niagara Falls. There is Bancroft which is the gem capital of Canada. I moved to Alberta 12 years ago and love it out here. If you like hills the Rocky Mountains are right here. We are certainly not crowded here. My father was born in Ireland and moved here when he was a child. I would love to visit the island one ofthese days.
