Traveling from Cong (leaving around noon) to Dingle and touring The Burren and Cliffs of Moher. Worried that we will rush to get to Dingle.
Friend recommended we stay in Adare for a night on way to Dingle. Have three nights in Dingle so we could take our time touring Burren and Cliffs and change to two nights in Dingle.
Any suggestions for Adare or somewhere else to stay is appreciated.
Are you worried there isn't enough time to see the Buren and the Cliffs and not get to Dingle on the same day. It's definitely doable.
Greetings from Ireland.
If you wanted more time in the Burren and the Cliffs you'd be best to stay there, in either Doolin or maybe Lahinch.
I like Adare for a coffee-pot and a stroll around, but wouldnt consider it personal for an overnight.
As Claudia says its certainly doable to go from Cong to Dingle in one day.

We are planning to drive from Dingle to Cong via the Cliffs and the Burren in one day - actually our hotel that night is in Clifden. We have decided to do this instead of spending the night in Doolin as we really want two nights in the Connemara area to do some hiking. From the comments here, it appears this is doable although I'm sure a long day. I would appreciate help with a route. I believe I read Stephen's comments on another post that the ferry is not the best option, so wondering the best route to the Cliffs from Dingle and then thru the Burren into Cong. ( We are taking a private tour of the peninsula and Conor's pass during our two night stay in Dingle, so we would not be planning to drive Conor's pass. ) We have an evening Hawk Walk at Ashford Castle to stretch our legs a bit and then realize we will have about an hour and a half drive to Clifden to our hotel.
