The Adare Manor Hotel & Golf Resort itself is an ideal vacation destination featuring an award-winning Robert Trent Jones, Sr. golf course where most of the top world-class golfers have played; Spa; as well as a wide variety of outdoor activities which can be arranged including fly fishing, horseback riding, falconry, laser clay target shooting, archery, garden tours, whiskey tasting, wine tasting, cooking demonstrations, and more.
