Review of cruising in Ireland...

"We received a warm welcome. Everything was explained clearly. The boat was pristine and very well equipped. We asked for extra pillows, nothing was a problem. I have already recommended Le Boat to friends and family as too have the rest of the crew. We found we got great value for the short break. We had a kitty of 175 euros each. This covered everything including food shop and breakfast on the way home!"
