We loved the Cooley peninsula, for just the reason stated, no tourists.It is a hidden gem, recommended to us by a Berkshire Concepts rep. whilst booking our 2 week trip in 2008.

Donegal is definitely one of the most overlooked destinations because of its geographical separation from the rest of the country. West Donegal is gorgeous! However this may in fact be due to this separation. The night sky in Donegal on a clear night is one of the most stunning sights that I have seen due to the complete lack of light pollution.

"Beauty spots", you say? What is the point without photos at the very least? And the links in the article have nothing to do with the subject. For the record, my favourite is the incomparable "Gap of Dunloe" (Google it & you're there).

What a tour guide. Can’t believe the number of times I’ve been to Ireland, but somehow missed Slive Bloom Way and the Cooley Mountains. Of course, our new Sinn Fein TD’s will probably have help centres nearby. I’m pumped. For those going to South Armagh, please consider staying overnight in Crossmaglen. What a town and what craic.

I'd not argue with any of the places named, but I would add the area of Mayo near Killary Harbor and the Glens of Antrim.

I would agree about the lakes (loughs) of Co. Cavan, the smaller loughs especially. Some of my Irish ancestry is from this area. One area to visit you might want to add are the Wicklow Mountains.
