Would you climb these stairs with your kids? 😅 🏰 Medieval castles did not mess around. These staircases are steep, narrow, and just keep going. We made our way up and down Bunratty Castle, and it felt like part history lesson, part obstacle course. We sure got a workout! 🏃‍♀️ Our kids actually loved exploring and trying to find new areas inside the castle (which definitely helped keep them motivated). This is one of those places where the experience is just as memorable as the views. Tag someone you’d make go first 👇 #ireland #wildatlanticway #familytravel #bunrattycastle

History you can actually smell… 👃 🔥 Have you ever smelled burning peat? It’s such a distinct smell and it helped make history feel more real during our visit in a way you don’t get from just reading about it. 🏰 At Bunratty Castle & Folk Park, we got to experience what homes in Ireland used to smell like with peat burning in the fireplaces for heating. It’s fascinating, but also one of those moments where you might step outside for some fresh air if it gets too intense 😅 The kids loved exploring the cottages and seeing how people lived, and this was such a unique part of that experience. You’ll even spot stacks of peat out in the countryside where it has been carved out of the ground if you’re driving around. ❓ Have you ever smelled peat before? #ireland #wildatlanticway #familytravel

We made a day trip to Cobh during our Ireland road trip and fell in love with this colorful little harbor town! Between the cathedral views, waterfront scenery, and colorful streets, there was something beautiful around almost every corner. Definitely one of our favorite stops in southern Ireland! #cobh #ireland #irelandtravel
