Castlemartyr Resort

Experience a romantic break like never before at Ireland’s stunning Castlemartyr Resort where you and your loved one can enjoy five-star luxury together for £100 per person per night* in a deluxe room along with a full Irish breakfast each morning.

Set amidst 220 acres of breathtaking countryside in County Cork, Castlemartyr Resort boasts meandering streams and rolling meadows, yet is just half an hour from the buzzing city centre and Cork airport, offering loved-up couples the perfect haven for relaxing and spending quality time together.

Featuring an 18th century manor house steeped in history, this leading resort has attracted celebrity guests including newlyweds Beyoncé and Jay-Z and boasts a host of amenities, from a championship golf course to a state-of-the-art spa which overlooks the formal gardens.

Valentines will love the hotel’s stylish rooms, where they will find a red rose and chocolates on arrival and enjoy an exclusive gourmet dinner on the Saturday in the Bell Tower restaurant. Early bookers will even receive a complimentary upgrade** to one of the resort’s fabulous junior suites.

Indulge your sweetheart with a pampering spa treatment such as the hotel’s signature Gaelic escape; a deep massage for the back, feet and legs along with anti-stress back therapy, finished with a hot-stone back, neck and shoulder massage, for the ultimate relaxation. Or if you prefer to sit back and simply enjoy the stunning scenery of the resort, then take a romantic carriage-ride around the beautiful grounds together.

There are plenty of attractions nearby too; whether you want to visit The Jameson Distillery at Midleton for a spot of whiskey tasting, take a stroll through nearby Fota Island Wildlife Park, do the Titanic Tour in Cobh where the famous ship last docked or simply shop ‘til you drop at Brown Thomas; Ireland’s most exclusive lifestyle store – you’ll find that County Cork has more to discover than you ever imagined.

Castlemartyr Resort in County Cork offers guests the St. Valentine’s package from 12 - 14 February from £200 per room per night, including a full Irish breakfast. For bookings visit castlemartyrresort.ie.
