How one kiss can make you eloquent.
Blarney castle is a popular tourist site in Ireland, attracting visitors from all over the world to kiss the famous Blarney Stone and tour the castle and its gardens. The Blarney Stone is a block of Carboniferous limestone built into the battlements of Blarney Castle. According to legend, kissing the stone endows the kisser with the gift of eloquence. The stone was set into a tower of the castle in 1446. (You can only kiss the stone in an acrobatic position.)
Photo: not the castle, but "Blarney House", built on the same site in 1874.

Eviston House Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"great location walkable to shops and restaurants. the room had no ac and was extremely hot in august. we had the window open but it was quite noisy outside at night on a saturday. the lounge in the hotel also got quite noisy on saturday but during the week it was fine. layout was a bit confusing, lots of stairs and winding hallways. clean and historic. the parking was convenient. would recommend.
