CLOSED: Win an eight-night trip along Ireland's Wild Atlantic Way

The destination 
Threading for more than 1,550 miles of Ireland's west coast, the Wild Atlantic Way is one of the world's most spectacular road trips. Dotted along this windswept route is a whole host of cultural, natural and gastronomic experiences that offer a diverse, vibrant portrait of the Emerald Isle. Highlights include the bustling markets of Cork and the picture-perfect seaside town of Kinsale, renowned for its fresh seafood and artisan crafts. Other adventures await, such as exploring the mysterious lunar-like landscapes of the Burren in County Clare; tasting seaweed along the shore in Caherdaniel; and sampling the finest malt whiskeys on offer at the Dingle Distillery.

The prize
Courtesy of UK and Ireland tailor-made specialists McKinlay Kidd, and in partnership with Kuoni and Tourism Ireland, the winner and a guest will set off on this unforgettable self-drive, eight-night adventure, departing from Britain by ferry. Valid for travel until 31 October 2021, the Wild Atlantic Way Food Trail itinerary offers ample opportunity to discover the area's untamed beauty by car and includes insider recommendations, locally guided walks and day tours. Accommodation is in a variety of hand-picked lodgings, from family-run guest houses to a tower house hotel that's located just moments from the beach.
