    we visited Burnatty Castle back in August of this year. It was a really nice place for a family trip. We enjoyed the visit at the castle and the village was also super interesting with loads of cottages from different times in Ireland, from the 1700's all the way to modern Ireland.

      There were a number of mispronunciations for the simplest of words. Ireland sounded like “island” and despair sounded like “dispear”.
      Again, it felt very AI narrated.

    If you get the chance tio visit Trim there's a statue of Duke of Wellington. It seems to be totally
    incongruous when you first see it (like it belongs in an English city) but there are good historical reasons for its prescence ..or maybe bad reasons depending on who you listen to...or just, you know...reasons.
