Neighbourhood
Our house is in a quiet area of Cork city with a supermarket across the road and a local pub two minute walk away. There is also a large green a five minute walk away. The Glen River Park is another lovely green space nearby, about a 14 minute walk away. St Luke's village with pubs, shops and the famous Live at St Luke's accommodation is also about a 15 minute walk away.
Getting to my home
We are about a 25 minute walk from the city centre. The 208 bus leaves from a stop a two minute walk away and goes straight into the city centre in 10 min (access to Kent train station). We are also a twenty minute drive from the airport or Ringaskiddy Ferry port (to France and the UK) so our house is ideally located.
