Catherine Zeta-Jones and Michael Douglas love carving time out of their busy schedules to devote to each other, and the couple seized the opportunity to embark on a quick vacation.

The Chicago star, 53, shared a few glimpses of their spur of the moment trip to Ireland to take in a game of golf and bask in the beautiful weather.

She took to her Instagram Stories with an overhead view of the Adare Manor, a massive 804 acre estate, once the former seat of the Earl of Dunraven and Mount-Earl, now a five-star resort and luxury golf hotel.

The picture she shared featured the hotel in all its green, lush glory, spanning across a large lake, a castle-like manor, and pristinely manicured lawns.

She added another photograph then of herself with Michael, 78, from their day on the links, each holding on to a putter as they posed alongside a life-size statue with the crystal blue water spreading out behind them.

"We're just very good with one another, we respect each other, and I never really feel that he's 25 years older than me. I remember people saying, 'When you're 50, he's going to be 75.' Well, that's just math."
