We read the reviews and made a point to travel further than we planned with the intention of being able to stay walking distance from a local, family run pub. Eamonn and Maria have a central location to other places in county Cork, which makes it great for day trips if that's what you're looking for. It's a small, quiet town about 20 minutes away from more restaurants and activity, but that's exactly what we were looking for. We cannot thank Eamonn and his family enough for the hospitality. Wish we could have stayed a few more days.
