Answer 3

Don't take your car into Dublin! Parking is a nightmare there!

You should visit the city of Kilkenny also, it's just great fun, and has a real mediaeval feel to it. And ask locals what are nice places, they will direct you to places that are off the beaten track.

Answer 4

courtown is just full of amusement arcades,get out into the countryside for some nice scenery ,find a pub with live music and drink loads of guinness.
