0800 043 6644Set in an old manor estate in East Cork, Castlemartyr Golf Resort is an 18 hole, 6,790 yard, Par 72, inland links style course. It is the creation of renowned golf course designer Ron Kirby, whose CV includes such Irish masterpieces as Dromoland Castle, the Old Head, and Mount Juliet, as well as Gleneagles in Scotland. Castlemartyr is designed to be a visually pleasing yet challenging and ultimately enjoyable test for golfers of any calibre.
Enjoy wonderful facilities, from the course to the practice areas and putting green, coupled with first class service in the Pro Shop and clubhouse.
The five-star hotel at Castlemartyr Resort has been magnificently restored to offer 103 guest rooms and suites. Accommodation ranges from Deluxe and Manor House State Rooms to Junior or Grand Suites. All are very generously proportioned and feature all the modern conveniences, including free Wi-Fi, an en suite bathroom, luxurious furniture, flat-screen TV, and stunning views of the hotel and grounds.
Castlemartyr offers four dining options: the Bell Tower Restaurant serving modern Irish cuisine with a twist, the Italian casual dining restaurant, Franchini's, the relaxed yet elegant Knights Bar, and the informal Clubhouse offering a lighter dining selection.
Non golfers in your group can take advantage of Castlemartyr's Wellness, Spa and Fitness Centre. With seven individual treatment rooms and two couples suites, plus manicure/pedicure stations overlooking the gardens, male and female relaxation and vitality lounges, a heated indoor pool, steam room, sauna and jet pool, this is the ideal destination for relaxing and pampering. You may even want to take advantage after a taxing day on the course!
Away from the golf course, guests can enjoy a range of activities, including horse riding, archery, clay pigeon shooting, carriage rides, dog-walking and bicycle riding.
Hotel fabulous Food average
A very enjoyable break that was much needed.
<p>The whole trip was fantastic - especially the Castlemartyr Resort & Hotel - we thoroughly<br> enjoyed every minute of our short break so thank you for the recommendation.</p> <p>Mere words are not enough to describe the experience and facilities at Castlemartyr, but I'll give it a go... <br> <br> "Superb" - "Magnificent" - "Awe-inspiring" - "Glorious" - "Brilliant" - "Outstanding"</p> <p>From the moment we approached the marvellous Mansion House at Castlemartyr – with its medieval ruined castle in the background - we were smitten by its `olde-wordly' charm. <br> And once inside we were not disappointed. The service was most welcoming & attentive <br> without being `smarmy' or overbearing. <br> <br> The hotel suite itself was `uber-grand' with not only an enormous king-sized bed which was<br> so sumptuous it literally swallowed you up as you sank into it but also the beautifully designed occasional furniture placed around the suite prefectly complemented it. <br> <br> As for the en-suite bathroom, well, it was really an enormous walk-in `wet-room' complete with a <br> powerful, invigorating shower head if you wanted it or a smaller, gentler hand-held unit for hair-washing, etc.</p> <p>The whole suite was also `space-age' with a technologically advanced central master control unit which we discovered to our absolute delight controlled every electrical function throughout the suite from opening/closing the curtains to switching the lights on or off, etc. Marvellous! And as if that wasn't enough, we also had a whole dedicated office suite included where we could play at being the president of the USA or a Richard Branson running our various empires from without leaving our suite! </p> <p>The food in the Bell Tower restaurant was also superb. Beautifully cooked and presented to our exact requirements and served by friendly, attentive staff throughout.</p> <p>We also found the same level of courtesy and friendliness at the Castlemartyr Golf Club House. The golf course itself was an interesting `inland links' style course with a good variety of tee positions to match all abilities which we found had generally been maintained beautifully throughout (although the approach to the `blind' par five 11th green could have been better sign-posted as we couldn't find it at all!) And it was a shame that all the greens had been hollow-tined and top-dressed just before our arrival so spoiling the experience on what should have been slick greens but were in fact deadly slow and uneven on the day. Overall though we would still give it a 9 out 10!</p> <p>We only played golf at Fota Island (Deerpark) rather than staying overnight but can thoroughly recommend the thick and juicy Irish Steak sandwich before taking on this Championship course. Again, a very good course spoiled only by the recent hollow-tining/top dressing on the greens. Overall rating, 7 out of 10.</p> <p>And of course we can't finish this review without thanking Your Golf Travel once again for recommending the magnificent Castlemartyr Resort (and the upgrade to the Bell Tower Restaurant) and for dealing with our booking so promptly and efficiently. We'll definitely be coming back to book our next golf holiday with yourselves shortly.</p>

A very good golfcourse, suitable for all skills and ages. A pleasure to play as a starter after e long journey
My wife and I enjoyed our 2 rounds of golf. M Bowe.
Good golf course. Only negative was there were only 2 buggies available and they were very old.
We had wanted an early tee time and were allocated 9am initially. Despite contacting the course directly we were knocked back to 9.20am. This meant we were unlikely to complete our round as we had to be at Cork airport at 1.40. On arrival the course director was effusive in her apologies and gave us 2 free buggies (normally 35 euros), free coffee and scones, free bacon rolls after 9 holes. It was a corporate day out in front of us playing a slow champagne Texas scramble. The weather was very windy and this contributed to a particularly slow game. We actually teed off at 9.30 and only managed to complete 11 holes when we gave up, partly due to heavy rain and our need to get to the airport. We would definitely go back as the team did as much as they could to compensate
Spent to much time looking for balls
The least challenging and interesting of the course and very much had the "course attached to a hotel" sort of feel. Probably would be good for day 1 and not the day after Old Head, but of course it was a Saturday and you take what you can get. Also had unfortunate incidents of group behind twice nearly hitting us with long blind shots while we were a) in the middle of the fairway and b) putting on the green.
Great course and facilities
