We stayed at Liss Ard to attend a wedding at another venue and this place blew us away. Setting is amazing, house and rooms presented simply but stylishly, gardens and grounds beautifully maintained, full of wonderful walks and unexpected features, and exceptional food; but what will bring us back is the warmth of the welcome and the friendliness and professionalism...

This is one of the best places we have stayed in! From the beautiful house/grounds and Lake lodge what really makes it are the wonderful staff. Nothing is too much trouble, we travelled with our baby and they had everything we needed from the little touches of a pink teddy left in our daughters cot to the parents kitchen. The... More

My daughter and I spent time at Liss Ard in February 2012. Everything about the estate is perfection: staff, grounds, house, food. Top rate in every way. Highly recommend spending time here. More

Loved this hotel, I stayed two nights a sunday though to tuesday and with a bit of off season luck had the whole house to myself. All public spaces are set up as if you are visiting friends with a large country home. Clean, crisp white walls covered with modern art work, and wide plank wood floors are completed with... More

This place is fabulous. The house is beatiful - modern and cool but not fussy or pretentious. The grounds and setting are also wonderful. Nothing is too much trouble and the people are lovely. Food and wine were first class too. A must-visit More

My wife and I stayed at the house for four nights in all and had a fantastic time. Very quiet luxury spot for a very reasonable price. Food is excellent if a little limited in range but none the weaker for that - breakfast is especially good as was the steak. The location is ideal for exploring West Cork though... More

My wife our 18 month toddler and I stayed at Liss Ard Estate in November last year. It was off season and had some time off so decided to see what was available mid week for a few nights. We weren't looking for anything spectacular as we had a reasonable but not extensive budget to work from. A quick search... More

I only stayed at Liss Ard for one night - a very short (but much needed) weekend break in the country from a hectic week in London. I was warmly welcomed, and upgraded to a lovely, quiet and homely room is the main house. The house is a stunning country pile mixing old style grandeur (grand piano, gorgeous public rooms... More

We’ve just spent three brilliant days at Liss Ard. It’s a wonderful find, a little off the beaten track, in a very special part of the world. The charming estate felt like our very own temporary home with its open fires and relaxed atmosphere. The house and amazing gardens have plenty of brilliant old and, relatively, new stories to tell... More

Lis Ard means "high fort" and in addition to an extraordinary hotel there are ruins of an old ring fort and a new geo-creation called "the Crater". The hotel is really three buildings, the Main house, an addition called the "Mews" and a Lake house. You MUST check their web site - there isn't enough space here to give the... More
