In Dungarvan on Sat night also. Eat and had a drink in the Anchor. Food was good.
Great parking spots on both sides of the harbour. Did an hour on bikes on the Greenway on Sunday morning. Very nice indeed!
Headed home early to watch the Hurling final.
One or two MHs parked on the BUS spaces at the "Lookout". Is this allowed?

If you have a van sized camper then it is possible to park up in the car park around Super Valu on the same quay. We have stayed there a few times in the past and it was fine. If you're feeling lazy the following morning i.e. hungover (!), there's the hot counter in Super Valu for food.
The Moorings bar at the end of that quay does a great pint of Guinness and the food is top notch too.

That's for this recommendation, we're setting ourselves up for our very first time out. Scary and exciting all at the same time

Since we're in Cork, this seems like a great option and for what I see in this post, it seems to be pretty MH friendly. A quick look at the map, I see that there's also two camping sites as a backup in the area, a few beaches to investigate and all.

Looking forward to it!!!

Cheers,
Rami

we were the same this year, first timers. Had a ball overnighting in car parks, beside pubs, aires, 1 campsite. Going to do the waterways ireland trip over the next few weekends, see where we land. Enjoy.

On the boat going to France but when I am back maybe you would take a chance at wild camping at Hook head one weekend I'm down in the area..
