Are you looking for a unique staycation experience

Are you looking for a unique staycation experience in Ireland this summer? Why not consider the ringfort stayover at the @irishnationalheritagepark in #Wexford.

We were lucky enough to have had the chance to try it out a couple of years ago and we loved every minute of it. We still talk about it to this day.

Check out the link in the bio to read all about (and watch the video of) our experience #makeabreakforit #irelandsancienteast #gifted . …

A short drive from Grange, #Sligo is the glorious

A short drive from Grange, #Sligo is the glorious Streedagh Beach.

With majestic Benbulben in the distance and 3km of sandy beach, Streedagh is a popular beach with family and surfers alike.

After visiting The Devil’s Chimney, we headed there for another walk. Luckily the rain held off and we could explore the rock pools and sandy dunes before finishing off the perfect morning with our picnic lunch.

There was practically no-one else around which made social distancing a breeze. However I expect this beach to be busier in July and August as the ‘Normal People’ fans flock in to see where Connell and Marianne sat in the sandy dunes overlooking the Wild Atlantic Way.

Are you planning on visiting Streedagh beach this summer?

We’re lucky enough to call Sligo home and this county still surprises me.
I can’t believe in all my years living here, I’d never visited The Devil’s Chimney. At 150cm, Sruth in Aghaidh An Aird - The Devil’s Chimney is Ireland’s tallest waterfall. However it doesn’t flow during dry weather conditions.
It’s a 1.5km walk to view the waterfall and it’s quite steep so you need to wear sturdy walking boots when it’s been raining as it could be slippy.
We loved the walk up and the views of the waterfall and over Glencar lake were stunning.

If you’re visiting Sligo as part of your staycation this summer, you should definitely check ‘The Devil’s Chimney’ out.

Getting abroad this year looks nearly impossible so have you considered a staycation?

We took our three teenagers to Monaghan for a weekend (just before the lockdown) and we loved it. There was just so much to do there in this border county, I would highly recommend it as a holiday destination when the restrictions are lifted.

Have you been to Monaghan? #linkinbio #hosted

We’ve been making sourdough for a while now and James recently saw @gill.meller ‘s recipe in his stories and wanted to try it out. Our first attempt turned out ok I think! Thanks to Gill for answering @jameswoodwardie question about proving overnight. Gill has saved the recipe to his highlights. Also, while you are there check out his new veg garden, we are very envious!

Here’s our take on the Irish classic, the chicken fillet roll.
We made our own baguettes and breaded some free-range chicken breasts. We should’ve made our own coleslaw but there’s nothing wrong with taking shortcuts ☺️. Lots of people asked for the recipe after I shared it on stories.
It’s from Patrick Ryan aka @firehousebread over @ilovecookingireland. If you’d like me to DM you the recipe, let me know in the comment below. . ...

We're making the most of having to stay at home at the moment by spending lots of time cooking together in the kitchen.

One of our favourite brands @dublinercheese asked us to share a family-friendly cheesy dish so we picked one of our foolproof dinners, homemade creamy Macaroni Cheese as it's pure comfort food and sure we all need a bit of comfort at the moment.

What is your favourite dish to make together at the moment?

Nothing says Easter like a hot cross bun. Sweet, spicy and sticky loveliness. Traditionally eaten on Good Friday, it symbolises the end of Lent. Have you tried making your own? They taste so much nicer then shop bought hot cross buns 😋 see them link in the bio for our recipe. ...

Lunch today was in Matilda’s Bakery and Deli in Carrickmacross #Monaghan. It’s a charming family run cafe which sells only homemade produce including cakes, bread, sandwiches and salads - as well as the lovely sausage rolls and chicken and mushroom pies we had. The owners father, who used to run the butchers that was in the same building, used to play hide and seek and call out “Where’s Matilda?” hence the name! We’d recommend a trip to Carrickmacross just to visit @matildasbakes 😍 #gifted ..

If you’ve got teenagers who can’t wait to drive, why not take them along to @rallyschoolireland in Monaghan. They have a fantastic Junior Rally experience which is suitable from age 10+. My guys loved it. #gifted ..

Does anyone else like to read the information book

Does anyone else like to read the information book when they arrive in a hotel room? If anyone needs to know the time the pool opens or what time breakfast is served here at the @hillgrovehotel, I’m your woman. 😂 We’re staying here for two nights to explore Monaghan and see what it has to offer families with teens. We’ve never been to Co. Monaghan before so we’re looking forward to our visit.
