From our cabin it's 2.5km down to lough hyne, which is a unique seawater lake and marine reserve. It's a great spot for swimming, kayaking and hillwalking. Knockomagh hill is a great walk at lough hyne where you can get to the top for stunning panorama views of the lake and the west cork landscape.

Food scene
We love the one in Skibbereen every Saturday morning, and apparently we’re not alone as The Guardian recently listed it in their “Top 50 Things We Love in The World”.
Skibbereen Farmers’ Market
Close to the coast of West Cork in Ireland is maybe the best small food market in the world. Vans are backed on to the square, their boots open. There are cages of ducks and guinea fowl, white or brown chickens sold (I think) for laying eggs. A few old ladies sit with their few homemade jams and honeys, there is spanking whole cod and hake and Dublin Bay prawns on ice.
A man sells his potatoes and onions. Perhaps best of all is the local Gubbeen van selling ham and bacon and their astonishing cheese. We bought our fill. It’s so quiet in winter you feel it is almost a social thing: stallholders meeting, talking and supporting each other. It is much busier in summer. Worthwhile travelling hours for, whatever the weather.
