County Cork Self-Catering Holiday Cottages

Come and find a charming seaside cottage in County Cork, somewhere comfortable, near the sea, with good access to beaches without having to travel. Cork in the South of Ireland with its attractive coastline including pretty bays, beaches and craggy cliffs and mountain ranges, has plenty to offer for cottage holidays.

The largest county in Ireland, whether you love to spend time by the sea or like nothing more than to ramble in the countryside or climb a mountain, County Cork may be a great choice for you for a self catering holiday. One wonderful thing about holidays in Ireland is that everyone is so chilled and laid back, sit on a beach and absorb those warming rays of sunshine or just laze with a book. The pleasure of staying in self-catering accommodation is that you have all creature comforts at your fingertips although almost everyone will want to go and explore County Cork,  there is so much to admire.

There are a number of interesting little islands off the coast of Cork which can be seen from near Lough Hyne in good conditions.  These islands are called Carbery’s Hundred Isles and there are a number of them.  The main ones for visiting on a self catering holiday though are Sherkin Island and Clear Island.  These Irish islands are sparsely populated and therefore attract many for wildlife watching.

Despite having your own serviceable kitchen in the holiday cottage, it would be a great pity not to taste the fresh fish at coastal restaurants or to miss cheerful Irish music and singing in the pubs. A holiday in southern Ireland promises good cheer in the best Irish tradition.
