13 Instagrams that prove why Clonakilty was named the best town in Ireland
LAST NIGHT, CLONAKILTY in Co Cork was named the best town in the UK and Ireland at this year’s Urbanism Awards. And why is that? Well, this might answer your questions.
Clonakilty is just storybook beautiful
The greens are greener, and the blues are bluer
The streets mix the old…
…With the new
And there’s just the right amount of whimsy
A full-scale, handmade model of the old West Cork railway line is a main tourist attraction. Adorable.
There’s the stunning Inchydoney Beach
Plenty of places to explore
And the most photographed sign in Ireland
Not forgetting the craic
It’s mighty, of course
So come for the rolling hills
And stay for the pud
Of course. Clonakilty, you beaut.
