Location
Youghal is centrally located between the two international airports of Cork and Waterford, and is on the main route that runs across the south of the country - the N25.  If you are arriving from the UK or France by ferry, then the  terminal at Cork (Ringaskiddy) is just 40 minutes away.  Rosslare, with its ferry links to Fishguard and Pembroke, can be reached in around 2 hours. Remember that driving in the  south of Ireland is usually stress free on uncrowded roads.
