Ballintemple is an affluent residential suburb on Cork's south side, between Blackrock and the Lough. It's the kind of address that carries a bit of weight in Cork conversations — detached houses, tree-lined roads, within walking distance of the Marina.
As a destination it's not one — you're staying here or visiting someone who lives here. The Blackrock area has cafés and a castle. The Marina walk is 20 minutes on foot. Cork city centre is a short bus or a 25-minute walk.
South Cork city, off the Blackrock Road. Easy to reach from the South Ring Road.
Multiple Cork city bus routes serve the area.
