A stay at Ballyvolane House is the perfect remedy with bracing walks in the glorious countryside (bring your pooch), warming tipples, cosy fires, hearty food and long soaks in deep baths.

Join us on Saturday, 17th February for the antithesis of the traditional Valentines night out. Instead of couples dining on their own, we will be hosting a long-table dinner where guests will sit together, feast, socialise and enjoy live entertainment from crooner Ronnie Costley who will be singing Sinatra and other Rat-Pack era faves. Perfect for couples, groups of friends and anyone else looking to celebrate St. Valentine’s Day slightly differently this year.
