Waterford Castle Hotel & Golf Resort - A 16th-century island castle with an 18-hole golf course, fine dining, and self-catering lodges
Set on a 126 hectare private island accessible by a short ferry crossing, Waterford Castle Hotel & Golf Resort provides 19 individually designed castle rooms and 45 self-catering lodges. The 4-star property features the Munster Room Restaurant, awarded 2 AA Rosettes, serving locally sourced Irish cuisine, alongside bistro-style dining at the King's Channel Clubhouse. Golfers can access Ireland's only island golf course, a par-72 championship layout designed by Des Smyth, while leisure options include clay pigeon shooting, tennis, and nature trails. The Lodges offer three-bedroom accommodations with kitchens, patios, and golf course views. Nearby attractions include Waterford Greenway (5 km), Historic Kilkenny (1-hour drive), and the Copper Coast scenic route.
Pros

Fitzgerald Room Bar houses an extensive whiskey collection and Waterford Crystal chandeliers.
The self-catering lodges accommodate groups with three bedrooms, kitchens, and golf course views.
