Hi Folks-
I'm back from my travels (hot, lots of elephants, buddhas and coconuts) and now plotting my next trip - to Ireland.
I am off to Dublin for a long weekend in Feb and apart from Dowth, Knowth and Newgrange, which I guess are "must-sees" I would really like to find a quiet dolmen somewhere that I can briefly have to myself. Can anyone recommend one with fairly easy access - (I'll be relying on public transport)

Also is there anything megalithic to see in Dublin itself? Can anyone recommend?
warm love to all
Jane

Feel free to impose on me when you come over. Always happy to show people around. How long are you thinking of coming across for?

However, I would recommend Glendruid, Kiltiernan, Ballyedmonduff. I can almost garrentee that you'll have these to yourself. Well, perhaps a few cows at Kiltiernan :-)
