Glandore

Glandore (Irish: Cuan Dor, meaning harbour of the oak trees) is the name of both a harbour and village in County Cork, Ireland. Glandore is located about an hour's drive west of Cork city.
The village has several pubs, with traditional music. It is a holiday destination for Irish holiday makers in particular. Notable homeowners and residents include Margaret Jay, former leader of the House of Lords, and at one time the businessman Tony O'Reilly. The former Church of Ireland rectory (originally called East View), along with Bearna Donn (originally called West View) and Stone Hall were built in the 19th Century by the Allen Family. The village yacht club's headquarters is located near the pier on the Old School Road.
The Irish Coast Guard has a unit based in Glandore at the "Rocket House" at the western end of the village.
An annual regatta takes place the third weekend of August. Sailing is one of the main attractions to the village, with rowing and swimming also undertaken within the community. The Lar Casey Cup is awarded to the winning Dragon class yacht. In former years there used also be Irish dancing competitions in the village square.
Every 2 years (on odd years) the Glandore Classic Boat Regatta is held during the second week of July.
