Glengarriff, Ireland

Glengarriff is a village in the south-west region of County Cork in the Republic of Ireland. It sits at the northern head of Glengarriff Bay, a smaller enclave of Bantry Bay. Known internationally as a tourism venue, it boasts many natural attractions.

The nearby gardens at Garinish Island and Glengarriff Bamboo Park are major visitor attractions. A short but challenging 9 hole golf course is also located here. There are also a host of walks in and around Glengarriff, from strolls in the forest with its rivers and glades of oak, to more ambitious treks up the nearby peaks.

Glengarriff makes an ideal centre for exploring further afield. The wild scenery of the Beara Peninsula starts here, whilst the peace and beauty of the Lakes of Inchigeela, Gougane Barra and the Borlin Valley are only a short drive away.
