Doneraile Park

Against the backdrop of the beautiful Ballyhouras, Doneraile is a pictureseque village in north Cork.

 

The village is surrounded by a huge mature and landscaped estate though the main 18th century house is not yet reconstructed but the park itself is welcome oasis of calm with flowing rivers, bridges, walkways and swans straight out of the best romantic novels, ideal for a stroll for welcome visitors en route to Blarney and Cork itself.
Nearby luxury hotels include Fota Island Hotel & Spa and River Lee Hotel.
