Book the Adare Manor with VIP Benefits

If yes, there is a perfect spot for you. Just minutes away from Shannon Airport in Ireland is the Adare Manor Golf Resort. It is truly a place to satisfy all your imaginations.

History

This stunning estate is on the outskirts of the quaint tiny village of Adare in County Limerick. Moreover, it spans a whopping 840 acres. Besides, the architecture was originally built in 1832 as a private estate for the Earl of Dunraven. It adorns 52 chimneys, 75 fireplaces, and 365 stained glass windows (one to commemorate each day of the year); it later transformed into a luxury hotel.

The premier design was in 1995, spearheaded by renowned architect Robert Trent Jones Senior. Its championship golf course - Parkland Course - was the pièce de résistance for golfers globally. Moreover, his intricate designs of the manor house were highly revered.

Adare Manor then took it a step further with a second ground-up renovation of the estate and the Tom Fazio designed golf course. Renowned American architect Tom Fazio spearheads the latter. As a result, Manor Golf Resort is a proud winner of the Condé Nast Traveler 2014 Gold List for Best Hotels in Europe, thanks to his design and talent expertise.

Arrival

After a smooth drive through the village countryside, whizzing by thatched-roof cottages, craic-filled pubs, and antique shops, you will arrive at the manor house. It is magnificent, from the towels, turrets, ornate wood carvings, and stone gargoyles to the beautiful parterre French gardens around the entrance.

If the view isn't quintessential enough, the attentive staff, all clad with umbrellas to shield you from Ireland's pouring rains, will lead you and your luggage up to the alcove entrance to the check-in desk. The best part of this little process is that there is no hype. As a result, your stay at the manor will feel as homely as it must have been for the Earl.

Rooms and Suites

Butlers are there to serve your needs at the ring of a bell. They will lead you through hallways decorated with 19th-century oil paintings and etchings. You'll also marvel at the lively wallpaper patterns up to the rooms.

On entering, only one word will come to mind - perfection. The top-tier rooms have arty stucco ceilings, crafted wood paneling, plush sofas, and stylish mahogany writing tables. A king-size bed with lush silk sheets completes the ensemble. But, of course, the marble bathrooms have their luxuries as well.

Marble walls and floors are the highlights of each space. A freestanding bathtub and rain shower are on the shiny marble floors. To make the atmosphere even more dazzling, the rooms and suites overlook the flowing River Maigue. You'll also spot the famous Adare golf course where the Ryder Cup took place.
