The first settlement along the coast, about fifteen miles west of Glengarriff, is ADRIGOLE , a handful of houses stretching over a couple of miles with no real centre. Just to the west of the junction for the Healy Pass is a shop, a pub and a basic IHH hostel Hungry Hill Lodge (tel 027/60228) with good camping - phone ahead to check they are open; three miles to the east you'll find a couple of old-style B&Bs : Bayview Farmhouse (tel 027/60026; GBP26-33/?33.01-41.90) with standard rooms and lovely views of the sea, and the nearby Beechmount (closed Nov-Feb; tel 027/60075; GBP26-33/?33.01-41.90). It's all wild and wonderful walking country. Hungry Hill rises to 2251ft, a good climb rewarded by fabulous views, hidden lakes and waterfalls, while the steep road through the Healy Pass leads north to Lauragh, County Kerry, where there is an An Oige hostel at Glanmore Lake (closed Oct-Easter; tel 064/83181).
