Nature, art, modern luxury and elegance come together
in this beautiful 200-acre estate with its Georgian
Liss Ard House and Victorian
Liss Ard Lake Lodge
country manor houses and its own lake. Liss Ard is indeed the most special venue in West Cork.
Stunning views on the lake and the ornamental gardens from rooms furnished in simple yet luxurious minimalist style. Woodland walks with specially
designed pathways offer guests a truly contemplative experience.
The estate and its country manor house date back to the 19th century to when the O'Donovans (well-liked Anglo-Irish landlords of the area at the time) first acquired the estate. The buildings have been carefully refurbished to retain the elegance and charm of bygone eras, while conferring luxury and modern conveniences to enable guests to enjoy their retreat on the estate to the maximum.
When it was operating as a full-service hotel, not only did the Tatler Travel Guide 1999 decorate Liss Ard
Lake Lodge as "One of the 101 Best Hotels worldwide", the Liss Ard offering was also extensively covered in magazines such as Vogue and Select.
Liss Ard has been a retreat in the past to numerous celebrities, including Oasis, Lou Reed, Van Morrison, Patti Smith and Nick Cave. Companies like Debenhams, Laura Ashley and K-Shoes have taken advantage of the beauty and luxury offered by Liss Ard to carry out photo shoots.
Liss Ard is the ideal retreat in West Cork from which a number of quality golf courses are within easy reach, as are the scenic coastal villages, drives and bays of South-West Ireland. Fishing and tennis are available on-site.
