    There was a hostel by the Michael Collins statue but I think it closed. If you cant affoard a B&B you could always camp. Have seen people camping on the far side of inchydoney up on the dunes or alternatively near the long strand beach.

    That one in Clon closed methinks as balmed out pointed out and may well have been the victim of flooding , not certain of course , further west there are 2 In Skibbereen Russagh Mill and a new one in the Town centre run by the Paragon Bar , very modern I would say , Bed and breakfast option in the bar , think 20 0r 25e .

    There is another campsite out the Clonakilty - Timeoleague road...google will probably throw it up for you.

    Can't say I know of any hostels around Clon, sorry! There are plenty of B&B in the area like someone else said above.

    Not sure about the Hostel , I don't think it os still open.

    The townhouse in Clonakilty do good deals for overnight, however I don't know if they have somewhere to leave the bikes.

    The Quality hotel have also good deals but maybe more expensive now that it is midterm.

    There is also the Emmett Hotel and O'Donovan Hotel, trying ringing them rather than online as sometimes you get a better rate.

    O'Donovan's hotel is very reasonable, and they are nice people.
