Ireland's Affordable Grandeur...

Well we have good news!
 
Firstly, we have some amazingly affordable properties in Ireland for rental.  All of these are under the €6k mark.
 
Secondly, lockdown is coming to an end in Ireland and the UK.  Ireland opens up on the 29th of June, Northern Ireland on the 3rd July of July and the rest of the UK: England, Scotland and Wales on the 4th of July.  There is a 14 day self-isolation in place in Ireland which is due to be lifted on the 9th of July. 
 
Last week we sent out information on really cool places to rent in Ireland, and a lot of queries came in asking how much those wonderful properties cost so we have listed those properties again at the end of this newsletter with the prices.
 
Lots of bookings are coming in for the late Summer in particular so please let us know if any of these tickle your fancy!

Best wishes and take care,
