SPREAD THE WORD IT IS ALL IN A GREAT CAUSE!!!

Lorna Roberts, is the official Irish & UK representative for the Spanish Parador hotels. This is a group of 93 state owned hotels all over Spain, many of which are in historic buildings – castles, palaces, convents etc. Others are in nature reserves, Medieval villages and in idyllic coastal locations away from the resorts.

Lorna held an “OPEN HOUSE” here in Ballyconneely at BARR AN BHAILE (on the road to the Connemara Golf Club) to hear more about Paradores and to enjoy some of the products from the CONNEMARA SMOKEHOUSE and some wine from MARQUES de CACERES in La Rioja. It was a wonderful success for the first of two events held by Lorna Roberts this summer,  over 30 people by the end of the night. Everyone were like busy bees, buzzing around Barr an Bhaile finding out information for the competition Lorna was holding.

The Paradores have many SPECIAL OFFERS & PROMOTIONS.

They are affordable and are also a wonderful romantic settings for Honeymoons and Weddings or simply just to relax.

Lorna can check out the best deals available and help with route planning for those doing a fly drive holiday. She also accompanies small groups traveling around the Paradores.

Held on the third Sunday in July, this is the 25th year of the Ballyconneely Pony Show.

Held in Ballyconneely, Co Galway, a beautiful part of Connemara renowned for its breeding of the celebrated Connemara Pony, its many attractions make it a great day out for all the family. The event is one of the largest in the area, attracting many breeders and ponies; there were more than 340 entries last year, making the show the second largest of its kind, and every year it just keeps getting better. With the added attractions of a dog show, a craft show and even a bonny baby competition, there is so much on offer for young and not so young. The show is also a great opportunity for those wishing to buy a pony, and many are sold on the day. So whether you’re buying, selling or are just there for the enjoyment of it all, the Ballyconneely Pony Show has something for you.
