Goleen is a quaint little village in rural Ireland which with brightly coloured cottages is simply picture perfect. Located in the south western part of the country in County Cork, this charming village is a wonderful place to take a self-catering break to sample a taste of the real Ireland. Many of the locals are farmers who work on the stunning land and scenery that surrounds Goleen. Tourism is also a big factor in the village as there are lots of holiday homes and cottages available to rent in the settlement, and the four cosy and friendly pubs plus independent shops make it a simply lovely place in which to stay for a few days or longer holiday.

What Goleen offers for Self-Catering Breaks


Whilst taking a cottage holiday in the village you may want to discover some of Goleen’s historical sites. In the centre of the village is a large Roman Catholic Church, St. Patrick’s, with soaring ceilings and dark wooden beams, which recently celebrated its 150th anniversary, and there is also a smaller Church of Ireland which is technically just outside of the village but is used by the residents of Goleen.
Located close by to the beautiful Mizen Peninsula, there are wonderful walks and rambles that can be taken from Goleen and by the coast, where you can take in the incredible panoramic views of the most south-westerly tip of Ireland, Mizen Head. Going for a morning amble here whilst on a cottage break with loved ones and friends is a wonderful way to appreciate the stunning natural beauty that Ireland, and in particular, Cork, has to offer, and you will feel relaxed and revitalised after soaking up the fresh and natural atmosphere of Goleen.

Goleen is truly magical and is not somewhere that you would want to miss if visiting County Cork. It is home to craggy cliff tops, serene beaches and a host of flora and fauna, and as it was established in the 19th century as a cattle fair, all of the houses which can be seen today were originally built with shops in the front rooms, giving a unique look to the main street of Goleen.

To see a side of Ireland that seems to be barely untouched for hundreds of years, visit Goleen to be inspired and moved. Whether you are visiting on a self-catering break to soak up everything this little village has to offer or whether you are just passing through and want to sample a little of the scenery, shops and pubs, or perhaps go for a beach or cliff top stroll, Goleen does not disappoint its visitors and guests. We feature a great range of Irish self-catering accommodation from romantic retreats to pet-friendly cottages, we trust that you’ll enjoy browsing through the available choices in County Cork featured on Country Cottages Online.

Whether you choose to book a holiday cottage in Goleen, an apartment, a lodge or another type of self-catering holiday accommodation, we hope you have your best holiday yet in Cork.
