Holiday Accommodation in Crookhaven

Crookhaven self-catering holiday accommodation is found in a tiny fishing village in the far south west of Cork. There’s a pub with tables and chairs out on the quayside, where you can sit and watch the colourful boats bobbing in the water, and a small shop for groceries, as well as shrimping nets, buckets and spades for the children. The earliest record of the place where Crookhaven rental homes are found dates from 1199 making the area rich in history although very little of the early building still exist although a look at an ordinance survey map will pinpoint of number of Bronze age monuments. If you happen to be staying in a Crookhaven holiday farmhouse on St Patrick’s Day, Easter or any other holiday you will discover that the people of Crookhaven know how to celebrate.

There are several great golf courses not far from a rental cottage in Crookhaven, like Bantry Bay, Kinsale, Lisselan and many more. If you’re looking for truly great restaurants then a day out in Kinsale while staying in a Crookhaven holiday home will be just what’s needed. For a taste of city life and nightlife away from the quiet of a Crookhaven rental cottage then be sure to visit Cork City; apart from the historic buildings there is a superb market here, known as the English Market, where you can pick up a number of the local delicacies as well as fresh fish, fruit and vegetable.
