Quality home with rural views

MOST people who drive through Carrigaline, Co Cork, will be familiar with Heron’s Wood, the large, Astra Construction scheme at the entrance to the town proper.

A well-maintained estate with lush planting, there is another side to this development and it’s approached via the Ringaskiddy road. This brings the traveller round to the Robin Vale end of Heron’s Wood, a string of detached homes on the edge of the country.

There are wide, rural views from the little boreen on which these houses are set — and the route gives access to Currabinny and to Ringaskiddy for those working in the lower harbour.
