You can read the full guide via our ePaper at southernstar.ie/epaper This article originally appeared in our bumper Things to See and Do guide for West Cork in 2023. Here is our list of things to see and do in the Clonakilty area, including Timoleague, Courtmacsherry, Ardfield, Rathbarry, Castlefreke and Rosscarbery. It’s a wonderful place to live and a fabulous place to visit. Within 10 minutes of five beaches, under an hour to Cork city, and surrounded by rolling green hills, it’s both near and far enough away from what we would consider ‘the Big Smoke’ of Cork to nurture its own unique identity. CLONAKILTY'S location adds a lot to its attraction.
