The location of Shanagarry Holiday Village has been carefully chosen to enhance this beautiful, bustling gem niche with leading tourist spots like Garryvoe Hotel, Grapefruit Moon Restaurant and Spanish Point in its locality.

Apart from its unique, long, sandy “Blue Flag” beaches that fringe the next-door neighbouring villages of Garryvoe ( just over a mile)  and Ballycotton, the surrounding landscape houses a wildlife sanctuary that attracts a vast range of feathered visitors throughout the year.

Also throughout the year, the world-famous Ballymaloe House, started by Mytle Allen in 1964, welcomes all who enjoy the taste of innovative, culinary excellence to indulge at the restaurant and stroll around the magnificent grounds of the original Irish country house. Here you can savour the flavours of the internationally-recognised cuisine.

Darina Allen runs an extensive range of courses at the Ballymaloe Cookery School,
attracting students from all corners of the world.
