Day Trip Travel Advice: Dublin to Midleton Distillery

Hi all -

Looking for some public transportation travel advice here. My family and I are taking a trip next month to Ireland & have a day trip to the Jameson Midleton Distillery planned. I have looked online and am trying to decide the best course of action to get there from Dublin.

It looks like there is a train to Cork we are taking no matter what. The main question is should we get off at Cork & take the 45 min local bus to the distillery OR should we take a transfer from Cork to Midleton via the train & then either walk the 20 minutes to the distillery/take a local bus?

I would love to know what you think the best course of action to take here is, or if anyone has done this before. My only concern of going to Cork & taking the bus to the distillery is the return trip. Our tour ends at about 5pm ish & if we take a 45 min bus that could get delayed, I don’t want us to miss the last train out that I believe departs around 7/30pm. I feel like I’m being extra for that part but want to check on others thoughts.

TYIA!!

Replying to my own post - I am incorrect in that it looks like the last train out of Cork is closer to 8pm. So realistically, we should be fine time wise.

Would still love any advice or notes from anyone who has done this day trip!
