Welcome to West Cork Country Courses!

We offer a wide range of fun and practical courses at top class locations around county Cork. All of our courses are delivered by tutors who live and breathe their subjects and are experts in their field.

We have previously organised courses in beekeeping, working horses, willow basketry, seed saving, orchard management and vegetable growing.

Please feel free to explore our website to see if any of our courses take your interest.

The winter is well upon us and West Cork Country Courses is about to go into hibernation. We were delighted with our 2011 season and very pleased with all the support we received. Thank you all very much. Make sure to check back with us next year to explore the opportunities on offer. All the best until 2012.
