Oh I love Achill Island! Happy childhood memories! Clare is a very depopulated windswept county isnt it? I also happen to be named after it....
I don't mean to bash Clare - as a Mayoman, I'm programmed to regard only mountains, rivers and lakes as scenery, when I saw the pic of the island on this thread, and saw it was flat, I thought; no good.
Mayo tourism is very underdeveloped, Bord Failte can't see beyond Knock and Westport!!
Achill is a fine place, isn't it?
