Kinsale is a small historic town on the south coast of Ireland, known for its restaurants, sailing, golf and angling. West of Kinsale are the beautiful coastline and mountains of West Cork and Kerry. Cork airport is 20 minutes by car and there are daily flights with Ryanair, Bmibaby, Aer Lingus and others. Locally there are three golf courses and several more within easy driving range (see below). Outdoor activities are well catered for: popular surfing and Blue Flag swimming beaches are only 15 minutes away (with good bass angling). Whale watching trips run every evening in the summer. Several charter angling boats operate from Kinsale and there is seasonal salmon fishing on the River Bandon. Sailing, angling, wind surfing, kayaking, riding and rock climbing can all be organised, or relax with some art, pottery or yoga lessons. Our studio accommodation is an ideal base for a self catered holiday in West Cork - quiet and private, but convenient for everything you need.
