    free to air

    Sky don't take back the box, but RTE, TV3 & TG4 are not free to air through the sky dish. Once you cancel the subscription, these will become blocked and you'll need to revert to a conventional aerial and also a second remote in order to access them.

    Hotel near Aughinish Island, Askeaton, Limerick

    You won't get a hotel nearby, closest is probably the Rathkeale House Hotel about 25 mins away. Askeaton or Foynes are both less than 10 minutes drive so would be closer but there's no hotel in either place but there are guest houses/B&Bs.
