The County of Cork situated in the South West of Ireland is
the largest of all the Irish counties and in many ways the most varied.
Rich farmlands and river valleys contrast with the wild sandstone hills
of the west, and above all there is the magnificent coastline scooped
and fretted by the Atlantic into great bays and secret coves, strewn
with rocky headlands and long soft golden sands.
Strange as it may seem, this is territory which is relatively
undiscovered, and completely unspoilt. Its villages and resorts are
mostly unsophisticated, but lively and friendly in their own special
fashion, and very welcoming to strangers who come to join in the fun.
