About Macroom

Macroom sits in the Sullane River valley, making it the perfect gateway between Cork city and West Cork's mountains. The N22 runs straight through, connecting Cork (42 km east) to Killarney (46 km west), with handy links to Dublin and Limerick for visitors from across Ireland. Local routes include the R584 south to Bandon and connections to the coast at Clonakilty. The town serves as a natural stopping point for longer journeys to Bantry or Skibbereen, with about 4 public fast chargers for electric vehicles. Macroom's Tuesday market has run for centuries, and you can still buy stone-ground oatmeal from the Walton family mill, where traditional methods produce the same product that's made the town famous throughout Ireland.
