Cobh is beautiful!

Cobh has been hailed as one of the 25 most beautiful small towns in Europe by travel publisher Conde Nast.

In an article written by travel writer Caitlin Morton on 12 June, the town was praised for “its rows of candy-coloured homes along the water and towering cathedral standing sentry over the harbour”.

The travel review also references the growing popularity of Cobh as a port of call for cruise liners and highlights the historical Titanic connection for which the town is famed.

Chairman of Cobh Tourism Jack Walsh said: “We are always championing Cobh as a visitor destination, so to see our beautiful small town featured in a prestigious publication like Condé Nast Traveler Magazine is a fantastic endorsement. Condé Nast is globally recognised as one of the most discerning, up-to-the-minute voices in all things travel and its recommendations are known to be very influential.”
