Lots of small places down there but Glengarriff would be nice enough if you don't want to stay in Beara itself, depends on what you want night wise really. Or always Bantry, about 45 mins drive from Beara. Remember if your travelling from Dublin, Fermoy is about half way!

As a prevous poster said, Cork is a big place.

Nothing brings that home more so than driving from Youghal to Dursey Island, (if anyone has ever done it).

It all depends on what you require.
