Living in Cork - A Life Less Ordinary

The area around Cork City has some of the most beautiful unspoiled countryside in all of Europe. Broad, fertile river valleys meander towards quiet coves and pristine, empty beaches. Tiny villages that have scarcely changed in a century are dotted around a patchwork landscape punctuated with bustling market towns and sleepy little fishing ports.

But the real beauty is that its all so accessible. In contrast to the urban sprawl in cities elsewhere, Cork is a surprisingly compact city, which means you are never more than an hour away from spectacular seascape or quiet country lanes. There's so much to do in Cork for people of all ages - from adventure sports and fast moving team games to more leisurely pursuits and pastimes.
