Good Points
Ice Rink, market stalls, Irish bar, friendly people, fantastic beers, absorbing the local culture.

Bad Points
We didn't have enough time to spend there

General Comments
We went last Christmas first weekend in December, it was lovely a lovely festive atmosphere, where you can shop at leisure without the frantic attitude of the UK, we stayed in the Crowne Plaza last minute delay and were right next to the main square. In the Belfry court yard there was a marque and with dancing, tapas food being served along with griddled sprats and a local liqueur (don't try and be clever and drink to much of this as it knocked my boyfriend out for the following day), the people are very friendly, I've already booked my ferry crossing for this year.
