Local Area Details

The picturesque village of Courtmacsherry lies midway between the old head of Kinsale and the Seven Heads on the rugged West Cork coast.
This charming village was formerly the summer home of the Earl of Shannon who planted many exotic trees, shrubs and woods around the village. The village of Courtmacsherry grew in Victorian times, as a haven for holidaymakers from the city of Cork and as a result several new houses were built.
In 1891 the railway arrived and was an important link to the outside world until its closure in 1961. The sheltered harbour, often giving a cosy sense of calm and security while storms wreck havoc outside.
Just five minutes walk away you will find a beach, pier, post office, two village shops and a large, well stocked supermarket at Barryroe as well as a Catholic Church and a Church of Ireland with summer services. There is a pottery and an exceptional craft shop in the village together with three lively pubes full of character, with music in at least one of them on most summer nights. Courtmacsherry boasts the oldest lifeboat station in Ireland since 1824, and the boat is an interesting feature in the inner harbour.







In the early 18th century, the Coast Guard chased would-be smugglers along the coast from their sheltered haven in Courtmacsherry Bay. Their cottages still dominate the slope overlooking the harbour, still a favourite haunt of anglers and visitors, because of the exceptional flora and fauna of the area.

Much of the village life centres around the lifeboat service, with local voluntary crews ensuring that this historic lifeboat station, one of the first established in Ireland, maintains an active role in bringing safety and assistance to sailors in distress.

Today we have a vibrant community with several developments taking place to improved facilities such as the refurbished pier and pontoon for boat's and yachts, the promenade and tennis court
