oh_frosty 0 #1 September 28, 2005 Hey Guys, Myself and a group of friends are hoping to head to Offaly in a few weeks for the weekend to try & get a few jumps in. i was just wondering, for all of you who have been/go there can any of you recommend a cheap hostel/B&B that we could stay in for the weekend which is walking distance to the Drop Zone? Thanks for any info La x x x Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
padraigbrowne 0 #2 September 28, 2005 there is a nice new bunk house on the DZ ,think its about €5 per night , Alternatively you can stay in Ma's B&B ,15 minutes walk from DZ but its within crawling distance of Richies pub Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mcneill79 0 #3 September 28, 2005 I'm jealous... I have lots of family in Offaly, but haven't been back to visit since I started skydiving. I think I need to take a trip there soon. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
