This beautiful house is located in the charming village of Halfway, County Cork, named for its position approximately halfway between Cork City and Bandon. Nestled just off the N71, this area offers a peaceful rural setting while being only a short drive from Cork Airport and the vibrant city centre. Halfway is steeped in history and local tradition. The village grew around the old Cork–Bandon road and was once a stop on the Cork, Bandon and South Coast Railway, with the iconic Halfway Viaduct (built in the 1860's) still standing as a reminder of its past. Evidence of ancient settlement can be found in nearby ringforts, and a World War II-era pillbox remains along the old road. Today, Halfway is known for its warm community spirit, traditional Irish road bowling, and the annual Halfway Vintage Rally, which celebrates classic cars and local heritage. Guests staying here can enjoy the tranquillity of the countryside while being close to scenic West Cork, historic villages like Ballinhassig and Crossbarry, and the cultural attractions of Cork City. Whether you’re exploring Ireland’s Wild Atlantic Way or attending events in Cork, The Halfway offers a convenient and welcoming base.
