Two options for those who covet a snug coastal retreat

HARBOUR VIEW is one of those places that the name says it all. But, the thing about this west of Cork seaside setting is that the name is historic... it isn’t just some developer or house vendor’s fancy.

Harbour View is out beyond Kilbrittain and Bandon, in the loose hinterland that includes Timoleague and with Courtmacsherry across the bay, and it is where south County Cork gives sway to the wilder beauty of west Cork.

Newly up for sale here is a four-bedroomed bungalow, out on an elevated site above the public road by the famed Pink Elephant bar and restaurant.
