AKross Dublin - Castles and Cocktails

At #Finnegan's of Dalkey enjoying a Hot Whiskey. The perfect spirit to ward off the cold on a drizzly Irish afternoon!

Finnegan's of Dalkey and Malahide Castle

One of the oldest castles in Ireland, 12th century #Malahide Castle. Only a quick train ride, just 9 miles north of Dublin.


Dalkey Castle has living guided tours that you won't want to miss. It was one of the highlights on my adventures in Dublin!

#Dalkey Castle, Hot Whiskey and #Guinness of course. Oh and a mysterious hand in the upper right corner...haunted perhaps?
