Myrtleville (Irish: Baile an Chuainín, meaning 'town of the small harbour')[1] is a small seaside village in County Cork, Ireland. 18th and 19th century records of the local estate houses associate Myrtleville House with the Daunt family.[2][3] The village lies within the townlands of Ballinluska and Myrtleville, just west of the entrance to Cork Harbour.[4]

Myrtleville has one grocery shop, a pub/music venue, and a restaurant/bar.[5] Crosshaven rugby club has its sports ground at the top of Myrtleville hill. The beach is used by swimmers all year round.[6]
