Sheep’s Head land boasts beautiful landscape in a sought-after part of West Cork

The Sheep’s Head Peninsula is a sought-after part of West Cork that set the trend in many ways for what would eventually become the Wild Atlantic Way.

It was the international success of the Sheep’s Head Way, a small but spectacularly beautiful packaged piece of walkers’ paradise, that served as one of the blueprints that was followed by the designers of the large-scale national route that has brought so many new visitors to Ireland.

On the Sheep’s Head Way, the success of marrying tourism and agriculture has become a way of life and in many ways, a current offering from Bantry-based auctioneers REA Celtic Properties encapsulates practice of mixing the activities of tourism, sheep-farming, dairying and other agricultural activities.
