Why we like it
Cork is a proper long weekend: the English Market, pubs on Oliver Plunkett Street, and Blarney Castle (kiss the stone) 20 minutes up the road. With flights under £30, the money goes on the day trips, whether that's Kinsale, Cobh and the Titanic Experience, or a full day out to the Cliffs of Moher or the Ring of Kerry.
