Travel digest with Barry Coughlan

Cycling enthusiasts may be tempted by a week-long offering from a company recently set-up by Corkman Brian Canty in Girona, Spain. 

The deal, from October 22-29, is for full-board staying at the country estate of La Brughuera de Pubol. Guided cycling is part of the deal – but bike hire is extra. Prices start from €999 per person sharing or €1,199 for singles and transfers from either Girona Airport or Railway Station are included.

Tailor-made packages at other times are also available on www.eatsleepcycle.com
