If you make it to Cork, ,this vegetarian restaurant is well worth a visit - another of my favourites. They do an early bird special, perfect for pre-theatre.

Entertainment & Activities
My favourite visitor park - nature and art in perfect harmony. Easy to spend three hours wandering through the woods and displays here. Just a cafe for teas, no restaurant, so eat before you go. Some steep paths. There's good tree cover so it's good for rainy days.

Arts & Culture
My favourite stone circle. Well off the beaten track, located between lakes and offset by a fabulous waterfall. If you carry on past the stone circle turn, can also visit the nature reserve - and walk over the waterfall. Allow several hours for that walk.
