Overview
3About Leap
Leap is a small West Cork village where the River Leap flows into Glandore Harbour, perfectly positioned on the N71 coastal route between Cork City and Bantry. It's about an hour's drive from Cork, passing through Clonakilty and Skibbereen, making it a handy stop for drivers touring the Wild Atlantic Way. The village has around 8 fast EV chargers for electric cars. What sets Leap apart is West Cork Distillers, housed in a converted 19th-century schoolhouse where they craft Glengarriff Bamboo Gin.
