Glamorous horses galloping across unspoilt sandy beaches is an image synonymous with Ireland's great outdoors.

If you want to live the dream, and steer one of these magnificent beasts through the Atlantic surf, get in touch with Joe and co at Five Counties and prepare to star in your very own Discover Ireland epic.

These equestrian holidays straddle five North West counties and attract a large international clientele.

And that's not all, you can also endulge in golf, biking, and traditional Irish music too.

Just select the programme with the activities you want to take part in and there you have it, a perfect tailor-made break.

Wonderful...
