Nice page on Ennis, Doug. I must try and get back to see more of Ireland. This seems like an ideal spot to base yourself to see the south and west of the country. And I agree that the Cliffs of Moher are a must see!

Hi Doug, Ennis looks a nice place. As for Cliffs of Moher should I seek accommodation closer to that attraction? Doug, when are you coming South Of The Equator??
