Myrtleville (Irish: Baile an Chuainín, meaning "town of the small harbour") is a small seaside village in County Cork, Ireland. Historical records of 1757 list a Myrtleville House, probably built by the Daunt family.[1][2] It is mostly within the townland of Ballinluska, just west of the entrance to Cork Harbour.
Myrtleville has one small grocery store, post office and two pubs: Pine Lodge and Bunnyconnellan. Crosshaven rugby club has its sports ground at the top of Myrtleville hill. The beach is popular all year round with swimmers.
