About Celtic Cycling

We at Celtic Cycling organise self-guided “go-as-you-please”, fully supported biking holidays in the South-East of Ireland.

Our aim is for you to have a relaxing vacation with time to explore at your leisure and to take in the many places of historical and general interest and enjoy the local entertainment. The Celts, the Vikings, the Normans and the infamous Cromwell all first landed on the shores of the South-East so there are historical sites at almost every bend in the road! How energetic you want your holiday to be is up to you; you can complete your daily itinerary in three or four hours or, if you wish, spend time taking it easy on a river bank or by the sea. We will endeavour to ensure that your stay is as comfortable, relaxing and enjoyable as possible.

Our policy is to provide our guests with accommodation of a consistently high standard. We have chosen family run B&B’s with a special ambiance or, in the case of our ‘Hidden Ireland’ tour, family run heritage homes. All accommodation is Tourist Board approved and all rooms have private ‘en-suite’ facilities.
