Once you hit Cork, you’ll soon realize why it’s known as Ireland’s gourmet county. With seafood so fresh that it glistens, lively farmers’ markets, excellent local produce and a glut of critically acclaimed restaurants, you’re never too far away from something flavorsome.

But beyond the epicurean delights and gastronomic pleasures lies a countryside that comes alive with fascinating history.

West Cork boasts some of the Ireland’s most exceptional scenic treats with a craggy coastline and broad golden beaches, while Cork’s charming towns and villages are the perfect place to nestle down with a pint of Murphys!
