This drone footage shows how staggeringly beautiful Ireland is

If you didn't realise already, Ireland is a strikingly beautiful place, as this drone footage from its west coast shows.

Shot by Raymond Fogarty for Discover Ireland, the video takes in scenery from the West Atlantic Way - a 1,500 mile route through nine of the country's counties - from Donegal in the north to Cork in the south.

Set to music by God is a Astronaut, this video makes us want to hop on a ferry and see the Emerald Isle for ourselves...
