Words come alive once again, in the latest edition of the 2013 West Cork Literary Festival from 7th - 13th July.  That’s seven full days to fill your head with wonderful words and inspiring stories and tales from both existing authors and past masters.  There will also be a programme for the younger reader so bring your children along too and make this festival a real family event.  I think Lord Puttnam said it best when he quoted, "Linking the notions of Literature and West Cork offers a sense of compelling symmetry.  The one feeds the other.  The West Cork Literary Festival is a brilliant event, which deserves to be nurtured into a serious rival to Hay and other cultural success stories."

The wonderfully picturesque town of Bantry is set deep in the heart of West Cork and overlooks Bantry Bay, which is a sight to behold in itself.  This unique and charismatic town is a very popular tourist destination and many visitors flock here every year to be a part of its distinctive festivals and breathtaking surrounds.  Not only are there many things to do including, walking, watersports, boating, horse riding and golf but is also rich in ancient archaeological sites and fascinating history.  Its incredible surroundings offer you a backdrop of un-parallelled splendour of emerald green pastures, twisting streams, woods and lakes which are dotted with megalithic monuments and ruins.  While the town itself provides you with a diverse choice of market stalls, hotels, restaurants, craft shops and leisure facilities.
