...on a recent visit to ireland we went touring for five days one of these days found us entering waterford entering from the west the road runs into the town and along side the river.we were looking for the waterford crystal factory but could see no signs for this , i called into a garage and ask if they had a map of waterford the gent i spoke to asked where i was going and then gave me the directions to get to the waterford factory.On entering the factory you go straight into a big car park,and then walk a short way into the reciption the tickets to go round the factory are cheap and when you book they give you a time for your tourwhich takes you all through the process of them making the crystaland you finish up in the waterford shopwhere you can browse around for as long as you want.We visited the restraunt before we left and also found...

Advantages: Great dining, warm and friendly atmosphere, Genuine Irish hospitality Disadvantages: Expensive
...is an ideal base to explore the Waterford crystal factory, the Art galleries, the town centre with its great shopping and some beautiful unspoilt beaches.

Ask the hotel staff for details, they will be more than happy to oblige
The Woodland hotel is situated at Dunmore Road, Waterford, Rep. of Ireland
