Does it look ok or is too touched up ?

Lurvely. Doesn't look much altered at all.

Beautiful shot. May I ask what edits were done to the photo, and what settings (exposure etc.) were used when taking it?

Using a tripod was key , it was at f 8 , and a fast shutter speed -- there actually was a lot of bright light !

I'm learning ps, but i''ll fess up and admit edits were done using picasa , used the "i feal lucky" function , and a bit of a sharpen (its good) .
Picasa seams to do a good job, i find it much slower on ps to get same results ! Maybe one day i'll get there !

Killiney Hill is behind Killiney Castle hotel and Killiney village .. you can see the cross at the top of hill, although this is currently under construction .. theres a big car park into it . Nice walks and views there too.
