This is an excellent base for exploring West Cork, it’s near everything on many of the peninsulas. It’s a stroll to a lovely Italian(which does takeaway) a Michelin Star restaurant, and 2 gourmet cafes, Budds and Bally Bia. Only in Ballydehob could you get Rosscarbery sausages and Gubeen bacon for €6.10 in the local petrol station. (Camiers.. with the best 99 in the West!)
