A beautiful castle seen while driving in the Irish countryside. Ireland is a country full of ancient ruins dotting the sides of the roads. You don’t have to drive very long before finding a castle to explore in private, as many of them have very little tourist traffic.

We’re planning a road trip through Ireland this summer! I’m so excited about it, mostly because of all the gorgeous views and amazing castles we’ll run into. 🙂
We only had a short trip this time…I wished that we had more time to drive around the countryside at leisure…more time to explore the little villages and out of the way places.
