A tremendous variety of activities is available close to holiday home farmhouses in Youghal, with the area widely recognised as a top golfing destination.

Practically on the doorstep of your Youghal self-catering cottage is Youghal Golf Club, which boasts excellent facilities and a spectacular coastal setting.

The region around holiday accommodation in Youghal is well worth exploring; the countryside here is sparsely populated and very rural, and is known for the high quality of its produce. The City of Cork is about 45 minutes to the west of Youghal cottages, and is host to a number of interesting attractions and historical landmarks. One of Cork’s biggest claims to fame is its natural harbour, which was the main embarkation point in the country for Irish emigrants heading to America in the 19th and early-20th Centuries. For impressive vistas of the city, head to Elizabeth Fort, which is also home to an excellent food and handicrafts market on Sundays. Blarney Castle, famous for its eponymous stone, is a short drive from Youghal self-catering holiday rentals and dates back to the 1400s.
