There’s Nowhere Quite Like East Cork
Being on the southern coast of Ireland and the very edge of Europe has given East Cork a unique landscape. Acres of lush green fields lie right next to miles of crisp sandy beaches. Centuries of rich European architecture are intertwined with 21st century infrastructure. And because Ireland is so small, it couldn’t be easier to see it all. Ballymaloe House Hotel is located just 2.5 hours from both Dublin Airport and Shannon Airport and just 45 minutes from Cork Airport. We look forward to welcoming you.
