Cliff House Hotel, Munster

Description: Cliff House Hotel

Perched at the top off a cliff overlooking Ardmore Bay, Cliff House Hotel was originally built in the 1930s, and after a long and eventful history, was lovingly and painstakingly rebuilt in 2008 by its present owners. This spectacular property now offers five-star boutique style accommodation, gourmet cuisine and range of bespoke facilities in a superb ocean-view location.

Perfect for relaxing stays in the lap of luxury on the south coast of Ireland, Cliff House Hotel is within easy reach of Cork and Waterford, and offers a fabulous range of activities and attractions, many just footsteps away from the hotel. Water-sports, walking and hiking, horse-riding and golf are just a few of the options available, and the hotel has moorings available for yachtsmen. The Norman walled port of Youghal is just a fifteen minute drive away, while Dungarvan and Lismore are also within easy reach. Within the hotel itself, guests can enjoy fabulous facilities at the Well Spa, including a 15 metre indoor infinity pool, outdoor heated Jacuzzis and stone baths, along with a sauna, steam room and treatment rooms.

The The House Restaurant at The Cliff House Hotel is the centrepiece of this magnificent property, and is the proud holder of a Michelin star. Here, chef Martijn Kajuiter creates fabulous menus based on the great Irish produce of Waterford, Cork and the Irish Sea, all in the splendid atmosphere of the dining room, with stunning panoramic views from its floor-to-ceiling windows. The relaxed bar restaurant is both sophisticated and easygoing, and a tribute to the finest traditional Irish cuisine.
