2 AA Rosette Awarded Restaurant – Garden at Liss Ard Estate ethos combines supporting small producers, locally sourced ingredients & farm to fork lifestyle.

All dishes are inspired by the seasons, harvested from the garden, coupled with the best of local meat, fish & game to bring you the most authentic flavours in West Cork, known as the culinary capital of Ireland.

For over half a century, the internationally renowned landscape artist James Turrell has worked directly with light and space to create artworks that engage viewers with the limits and wonder of human perception. 

New Yorker critic Calvin Tompkins writes, “His work is not about light, or a record of light; it is light — the physical presence of light made manifest in sensory form.”

We look forward to welcoming you to Liss Ard Estate as you explore the Wild Atlantic Way.
