Who among us doesn't love their "cupán tae," especially when it’s
a formal afternoon tea, that lovely tradition where a fondness for
tea and a penchant for sweets comes together most agreeably mid-afternoon.

the ritual of afternoon tea is still alive and well in many parts
of the world.

Four counties and four great rivers make up the South East of Ireland.
The Barrow, Blackwater, Suir, Slaney and the Nore flow through a
countryside rich in antiquity. Some of the most famous castles in
Ireland are to be found here in arguably the most pleasant climate
in the country, which gives the region its nickname, the 'Sunny
South East'.
