Hi everyone! My husband and I are looking for an apartment or house in Cork City - and we're having quite a hard time at it!
We are looking for a place that allows us to have room for our new friends to feel comfortable hanging out :) and there are units available for rent, but we find that that the rooms tend to be rather tight, with very little walking space!

Does anyone else share this experience? Or  the opposite? Or any tips?

Many thanks!

Look at midleton. It's on the train and bus route. You won't get a large house in the city center.
