Unfortunately, modern transport methods, though efficient in many ways and guaranteeing quick access from one location to another, falls short in other ways.

The Irish Horse Drawn Caravan Federation (IHDCF) offers a unique service--take charge of your very own horse-drawn caravan and, at a leisurely pace, enjoy the splendid highways and byways of Ireland. The IHDCF offers suggestions on scenic and interesting routes, as well as farmhouses, guesthouses, pubs and hotels that offer overnight facilities.
