Enjoy festive dinners in the run up to Christmas with friends, family and work colleagues. Ballyvolane House is an ideal place to make merry and feast this coming December. Only 30 minutes by car from Cork city, Ballyvolane is nestled deep in the beautiful north Cork countryside. Originally built in 1728, the house was remodelled in Victorian times to give it a more Italianate style and the house is stuffed with family heirlooms, portraits and antiques. Ballyvolane House can accommodate gatherings of all sizes with small groups in the House and larger groups in the dining terrace and bar within our converted barn. Don’t worry about driving home and stay the night. Special discounted room rates available. Transport to and from the house can be arranged as well.
