The name of the area surrounding the fishery is Duhallow. There are many things to do locally, such as:

Golf -
Golf in Ireland is always a pleasure and Duhallow's 18 hole gem is located at Kanturk Golf Club. A fifteen minute drive to the south from Kanturk brings you to the first tee in Macroom, where the recently extended 18 hole course is set in delightful parklands embracing Macroom Castle. On the borders of Duhallow within 20 minutes of Millstreet lie the challenging 18 hole championship courses at Mallow and the highly acclaimed Lee Valley Golf and Country Club. To the west, the world famous championship courses at Killarney are, as always, a major attraction.

Horse Riding -
Millstreet is the home of Green Glens, the world famous equestrian centre, which sees an influx of 30.000 visitors daily to its international horse shows each year. This ultra modern showground and sales centre for the Irish Horse boasts 120 stables, a cross country course, three indoor arenas, four outdoor arenas and has firmly established itself as Ireland's premier equestrian centre.

Hunting -
The Duhallow hunt is one of the oldest and best renowned in Ireland, covering a terrain of banks, deep ditches, stone walls and lush pastures. The hunt is always a prelude to a social occasion in one of the many local hostelries. Cross country trail riding and hunting breaks are hallmarks of this equestrian eden.

Hillwalking -
Duhallow is a veritable delight for hill walkers. There are a myriad of meandering walkways, forest trails and delightful mountain paths for those who love to indulge in the great outdoors. The real joy of exploring the Duhallow region lies in the solitude and sense of oneness with an undisturbed environment.

Cycling -
For those who prefer pedal power, the cyclist will discover a network of quiet rambling mountain roads and winding country lanes that gently wander from town to village.

Entertainment -
At the heart of Duhallow lies Sliabh Luachra, renowned for its traditional music and set dancing. The villages of Knocknagree and Ballydesmond form the focal points of this region. Spontaneous musical sessions and lively conversation in a traditional setting of flagged floors, ancient rafters and open fires will add an enriching experience to your visit.
