What to do in West Cork in pissing rain?!

[GingerAndTheBiscuits]

Made it to the beach yesterday but the forecast is atrocious for next few days. 2 adults, 2 kids under 5, have car! All ideas considered!

I picked up a flyer for the Ewe Experience when we arrived so will definitely take a look at that if we have another rainy day. Website is intriguing!

Only last week on Craicnet they were cribbing about the heat.

the cinema in Bantry is a must for rainy days. skibbereen usually has a great arts programme with stuff going on for kids. mine love the pirate castle in Baltimore, and you can go for a sea safari on a rib . stand up paddle boarding on loch Ine? the vintage car museum near kenmare ?

We actually haven't needed to do anything other than sit on the beach in glorious sunshine since I posted! I'm obviously a good luck charm! I think my freckles are almost joining up to form a tan...

Will make a note of these for next year though as we'd never be lucky to get good weather twice in a row

Tomorrow is supposed to be a scorcher so a day for the beach OP!

Our last full day today but it's roasting and we're heading to the beach now - pint and toasted special in Crookhaven was required first!

Had a lovely stroll on Inchydoney today

We need a special mumsnetter sign for all of us in west cork this summer :)

God's own country. Love it down there

I was also in West Cork last week! Apart from the deluge on Monday the weather was pretty good where we were too & we didn't need to do any of the things we had planned for rainy days!

Special wave to Carriemac, another thing in common!

Hi Decorhate! I have 3 Leeds medics staying here in west cork this week charming everyone .

Are you from West Cork originally Carrie? I'm from North Cork but just love West Cork. Maybe it's in the genes - one of my grandparents was from near where we go on holidays!

I'm from the midlands but have a holiday home in WC

Thanks for the recommendation for The Ewe. We were there last week and we loved it. I have been to glengariff many times but somehow had managed to miss it.

I've driven past it before but never gone in, must try it the next time

ashamed to admit I recommend it but have never beem...
