Holidays in West Cork ...

... Magic Throughout the Seasons

Throughout the year there is plenty to do in and around Inish Beg whilst on your holidays:

  • The indoor swimming pool, steam room and exercise room are open all year round.
  • The gardens and woodlands have been replanted so as to be interesting in each season and are particularly exciting in spring / early summer.
  • Inish Beg is on a major European migratory route and bird watching in spring and autumn will be particularly rewarding -- probably the best in Ireland!

There are a variety of activities and events taking place throughout West Cork at all times of the year:

“The Boat House at Inish Beg, designed by architect Tony Cohu, has become a famous piece of modernist Irish architecture, sitting proud out on the water on the Inish Beg estate, Frank Lloyd Wright meets Glen Murcott on an island off the coast of – where else?- West Cork. Aside from the Boat House, there are lots of other superbly comfortable cottages to rent in Paul and Georgie Keane’s complex of rental properties, and there is also the terrifically delicious Inish Beg honey to be enjoyed”
