I discovered Coomarkane in March 2018 with my partner and daughter, and we fell in love with it so much that we came back again this Easter. I cannot describe how special this spot is. Audrey and Les's homestead and visitors centre is nestled away in the heart of a breathtaking valley just 5k from Glengariff next to a river. Their cabins are the perfect place to spend a few days - as a base for walkers and hikers wanting to explore the Beara Way, for couples seeking peace and quiet or for families with young children hoping to escape and be immersed in the sounds of nature. We woke to the sounds of lambs and birdsong each morning and were treated with freshly laid eggs for breakfast each day which we cooked up in a little outdoor kitchen next to our cabin. We spent the evenings sat around our campfire watching the moon rise and reading until dusk. It really is the most perfect spot for people who love being outdoors in nature. There are multiple walking and hiking trails on their doorstep for those who like hill walking, and Glengariff town is just a 10 minute drive through a beautiful forest reserve away where you'll find plenty of restaurants, swimming spots and activities for kids. Audrey and Les are incredibly warm and friendly hosts and were so kind to us and our daughter Nina throughout both our stays. We hope to get back down for a trip every year! .

Visited here with my husband, along with the stones and a leisurely drive round the area. Been to many tourist sights in Ireland but this was one of our favourites. There is such a peaceful atmosphere at Lough Gur and not many tourists when we were there. Brian shares his knowledge of local history and brought it all to life. We enjoyed the guided walk. I bought a book based on memoirs of a lady who lived at the farm there. Great to read about a place I have visited. Highly recommend taking a few hours to stop here.

My latest visit to the Tourist office was a couple of weeks ago but I have visited here regularly. A more central location would be better - perhaps in or beside the new Capital building. Otherwise, it is a great office with lovely, helpful, friendly, informative staff. It has a good range of guidebooks and other tourist related goods. It is an excellent starting point for any tourist who has arrived in Cork city and wants to plan out their visit. The staff were particularly well-informed about Heritage Week which ran recently and was a wonderful event with many fascinating tours/events/visit in Cork. I particularly enjoyed the walking tour of South Mall with the Irish Georgian Society (Kevin Hurley); the "Cork Earthquake of 1755" walking tour with Anthony Beese (Geologist); Elizabeth Fort with its amazing views of Cork and Nano Nagle Place which celebrates the wonderful Nano Nagle, educator of the poor of Cork & founder of the Presentation sisters. These were all absolutely superb.
