Castlemartyr

Overview

Incorporating contemporary design with old world charm, Castlemartyr Resort is a unique and inviting hideaway from which to discover County Cork. This East Cork hotel is housed in an elegantly restored 18th century Georgian manor and exudes all the warmth, richness and charm of Irish life. The grounds of the estate contain countless delights including the remnants of the original castle which was built by the Knights Templar, solely for the first Earl of Cork. The Garden Room Restaurant is committed to creating exquisite menus with a contemporary twist using the very best local produce; the restaurant is relaxed but elegant overlooking the estate's formal gardens. The resort is home to Castlemartyr Golf Club, a challenging 18-hole championship course including an ancient chapel and graveyard. The Spa at Castlemartyr is truly an oasis of calm far removed from the hustle and bustle of daily life, with a range of treatments and therapies. Castlemartyr Resort is home to countless sporting and leisure activities. You can choose to spend an afternoon on the lake in a handsome Italian polished boat or enjoy fly casting and fishing tuition on site with an experienced ghillie. The sprawling Mitchell’s Lawn is an ideal place to engage in croquet, boules, badminton or lawn cricket. In the evening you can cosy up to the fire pit for cocktails and warm conversation.
