From the Cork Home Page: County Cork is Ireland's largest county and has a wealth to offer the visitor. Cork has a history that goes back for hundreds of years and there are traces of civilisation that date back to the Stone Age. In many ways it can be seen as a microcosm of the history of rural Ireland. It is in an excellent location for your stay in Ireland as the prime tourist attractions of the Lakes of Killarney and Blarney Castle are all nearby.
