Head of Ireland’s Ancient East says equine industry a huge tourist draw.
Kildare offers holiday makers an experience that can’t be replicated anywhere in the world.
That’s is the view Brian O’Flynn, Head of Ireland’s Ancient East with Failte Ireland.
The comments come following the announcement of a new €68 million EU tourism fund.
The money will be used to develop, network of trails, green ways and for the repurposing of buildings in the Midlands, including Kildare, Laois and Offaly over the next four years.
Speaking on Kildare Today on Kfm, O’Flynn says Kildare’s Equine industry is a unique draw.
