Also known as the rebel county Cork is Ireland’s largest county and it’s what the locals call the “Real Capital”.
Cork has a spectrum of living environments from the city living metropolis of Cork City and it’s suburbs like Ballinlough, Blackpool or Ballincollig to the rural seaside peacefulness like Courtmacsherry in the west or Youghal in the east and everything in between.
Cork has the advantage that while it is large it is very accessible with city living and beach only 20 minutes apart.
