Lighthouse stay

Wicklow Head Lighthouse, by the Irish Sea about an hour’s drive south of Dublin airport, was built in 1781. The interior of the 95-foot-tall stone tower was remodeled by the Irish Landmark Trust (25 Eustace St., Temple Bar, Dublin 2, 50 Bedford St., Belfast, BT2 7FW, Northern Ireland; phone +353 [0] 1 670 4733) and now contains six octagonal rooms and a kitchen.

The cost for one week’s stay in high season is €1,575 (near $1,925) and in low, €1,260. A midweek stay, arriving Monday and leaving Friday, costs €652 ($800).
