What else ...
They’re Cork city around 30 to 40 minutes away on the bus. Which is nice to explore. Fermoy town is a 5 minute drive with some cafes and a few shops. Kilworth the village has beautiful scenic walks in the woods and just off route in the countryside. A shop, 4 pubs and lots of sports activities. An arts centre for music and an art gallery. It is a very busy village, but very rural. People are friendly and generally there is always something to do.
