“We enjoyed our stay in Marje's historic home in Cork just opposite the University. We were able to walk to many attractions or use the public transit while in the city of Cork and experience this historic city and its culture. Marje and Terry were welcome guests in our home in Canada while we traveled many roads in Ireland and saw much of the south. We tend to cook at home most evenings so we appreciated the well equipped kitchen. I look forward to another trip to Ireland sometime in the future and hope to maintain contact with this wonderful couple.”

Where is it?
Neighbourhood
The Cork city house is 15 minutes walk to the center and all amenities. An award winning restaurant/pub is just 5 minutes walk as is Cork University which offers English language courses throughout the year. The beautiful countryside and coast of West Cork is very accessible. Traditional music and dance is a big interest in our lives and available at both locations. The Cork Jazz festival happens in October and events/celebrations happen almost every month. The University Sports Arena is nearby and many beaches with very clean water are close by. The Cork city marathon happens in June. A kayak is available for your use on the river/sea. River fishing is possible just outside the garden. Deep Sea fishing/boat hire/sailing is available at one of the seaside towns such as Youghal or Kinsale.
