Liss Ard Resort, Skibbereen

Nature, art, modern luxury and elegance come together in this beautiful 200-acre estate with its Georgian and Victorian country manor houses and its own lake near Skibbereen in West Cork. The magnificent gardens and woodlands at Liss Ard add to the uniqueness of the estate. Throughout, there are specially designed pathways and walkways that accentuate the guest’s appreciation of Irish flora. In addition to the main Lake Abisdealy, there are a number of ponds and a waterfall dotted around the estate, that create a feeling that can only be compared to that in the Garden of Eden.

The gardens include the magnificent ‘Crater’ – designed by James Turrell, the extraordinary American artist who is world-renowned for his works on the theme of ‘Light’, and the Swiss architect Gert Burla.The Crater was created for the Irish skies to be appreciated by the spectators lying on the stone structures at the bottom – the dome-effect that is created in the elliptical frame (Sky Garden) is truly an unforgettable experience www.lissardresort.com
