If you’d be happy to go to Dublin pick up the phone to the intercontinental (old 4 seasons) or the Westbury or Merrion and see what deal they would offer. Will be far better than online price id guess

Was there 4 years ago with the father in law. If its fine I thought I might bring the kids alright, just for the boat trip alone… They love the water

CMX is an ok spot. Nothing wrong with it. Decent hardware store in by the Super Valu.
I must tick hardware store along with swimming pool when selecting my next accommodation on booking.com

And don’t forget the lace museum. But I would say the hardware store was a highlight of the trip
Ah I don’t mind it. A meal from The Courthouse on Saturday night. Some tasty treats in Matilda’s Bakery. A few takeaway pints from Shevlin’s and/or JJ’s on other nights. Although I hear The Fiddler’s, Banty’s place, is a COVID-19 casualty. I’ll get a couple of runs in, they even have a public running track. I’m leaving the day trip organisation to the local expert.
By Jaysus, pints from Shevlin’s. There’s a blast from the past. They had an upstairs lounge with a dodgy floor back in the 1960’s…I know this because I fell through it.

In all seriousness, it seems a grand spot. I’ve generally only driven through it. They’ve a good athletics club too.

A great town. You’ll be spoiled for deli options- Sean’s Deli on the Main Street or McCahey 's deli in their service station. If you want a real treat the Tir Chonail service station beside Lidl does fantastic ice-cream.

Houses or hotel?
It’s as close to tallow as it is to midleton. It’s a good 15km outside midleton
It’s a grand spot to pass a bit of time alright.
