Take off with Aer Arann and tee off with the pro's

Put a spring in your step, a smile on your face and take a few points off your handicap. Jet into Waterford from London, Birmingham or Manchester with Aer Arann and receive complimentary pick up for this April only to the Mount Juliet Conrad Hotel in County Kilkenny, southern Ireland.

Drop your bags, don those golfing shoes, grab your complimentary clubs and stride out onto the green in the footsteps of Tiger Woods and Padraig Harrington. Spend the rest of the day driving like a master round the prestigious Jack Nicklaus’ designed championship golf course.

Once you’re all putted out, fall into the lap of Conrad luxury at this award-winning luxury Georgian estate in the rolling hills of County Kilkenny.

For those who are slightly below their golfing par, sit back and take in views of the estate’s own woodlands and gardens from the fine surroundings of the cosy Hunters Lodge or Presidents Bar. Dip into the hotel’s pool, pamper yourself with the spa’s beauty treatments or enjoy some of the estate’s activities: salmon and trout fishing, archery and cross country horseriding.

After a stroll through the estate’s lush gardens, your high pitching life will continue into the evening with dinner at the award-winning restaurant the Lady Helen Dining Room where you’ll be served creative international cuisine.
