follow in the honeymoon footsteps of Charlotte Brontë and her new husband Arthur Bell Nicholls - from Haworth to North Wales and across the Irish sea to Ireland.
As for now, the blog has two posts, both about Killarney :
Charlotte and Arthur arrived at Killarney, however, we do not know where they stayed. Pauline Clooney, in her historical fiction novel 'Charlotte & Arthur '(Merdog Books), has them stay at the newly opened Railway Hotel where 'everything was of the highest standard' and there was even gaslight. But, as Pauline acknowledges, there is no recorded evidence of their actual Killarney lodgings. They may well have stayed at the Railway Hotel or indeed at any other number of hotels in the area.
Just to confirm there are more than 2 posts. I have posts starting in Wales where Charlotte’s and Arthur’s honeymoon began then onwards through Ireland. I’m currently up to Killarney! Next post will be about Glengarriff
There are more posts than the two on Killarney. Joanne has been and reported on the full honeymoon of Charlotte and Arthur. Very interesting reading and loads of beautiful pictures.
