    Congrats on your win. The Brooklodge is a great hotel and there are enough activities there to keep you occupied for a weekend.

    The spa is quite good, there is a golf course and stables too. To be honest I love going there just to relax and recharge.

    I'm a man of many and varied talents. Lying down is just the tip of the iceberg!

    wow , when you read that there are four replies on a thread, you think there's a mountain of information for the OP - oh but no, it's just a bit of banter and a little bit of an insight to what the Mods pleasures are!!!

    Anyway, back on topic...if you have a few quid to spare while you are down there, there's plenty to do in the adventure end of things. I did this with seven other people with Ireland Xtreme (http://www.irelandxtreme.ie). There is laser clay pigeon shooting, blindfold driving, mountain biking, orienteering, strategy games. I didn't get to do the off-road driving but if I were to go back I'd do that! Now you mention you don't drive...it is that because you don't have a license, don't have a car or just never started? Not sure if any of these would limit you on doing driving stuff.

    Enjoy your weekend. It's a lovely setting...
