"Extremely informative and amusing. Catherine sensitively conveys the dreams and commitment of Ireland's tourism providers who are doing their bit to make a difference. These are not just ecoescapes, they are great escapes."
Miriam Donohoe, Editor, Irish Times Travel Supplement “Go”

The Observer

In this groundbreaking new guide book, Irish travel writer, Catherine Mack gives a personal insight into her top 50 ecoescapes. These handpicked experiences are sustainable from start to finish, and cover all of Ireland, North and South.

Full of practical details, including a Slow Travel Toolkit, the book helps those living in Ireland find ways to responsible escapism closer to home and provides international visitors with greener options for their travels.

ecoescape: Ireland also offers insight into the people behind the green businesses. “I wanted to make a guidebook to share the stories of great people who are, quite simply, trying to make a difference,” says Catherine. “They are striving to make a living out of Irish tourism, but taking responsibility for the impact it might have locally.”
