Carrowkeel for me, not just 2017, any year ever, closely followed by Cromeleque da Portela de Modo. For 2018 I can't wait to get an opportunity to discover the Beara Peninsula and back up to explore some more of the Scottish Isles, so much to see, so little time

I went to the Beara Peninsula in 2012 (where does the time go) the year after my Irish mother died. I think I went for her - it was the most magical week. It is a wonderful elemental place with small stone circles, wedge tombs and standing stones almost all within sight of the sea. We stayed in Glengarriff though maybe Castletownbere would have been a better choice. I was very sad to leave, it felt like I was leaving my mother behind. Probably won't go back but the place will always stay with me.
Go!

Yes, Carrowkeel, only 130 miles away and only been once. The Bricklieves are beautiful, worth going even without the megalithics. I think I feel a road trip coming on...
