Longueville House Hotel

Four Star

Mallow, Cork Show on a map

County Cork is a glorious blend of rolling hills and lush green valleys. At its heart lies Longueville House, a 17th-century, 20-bedroom Irish country house hotel steeped in history and character and offering a very warm welcome, with open log fires, deep, heavy-covered beds and modern bathrooms.  Located 6 kilometers from Mallow, on the Cork to Dublin Railway line, it is easily accessible from Cork, Limerick and Killarney.

It’s a place of history, yet Longueville has moved with the times. Maintaining and modernising the house has been a labour love for third-generation owners William O’Callaghan and his wife Aisling. William brings the same eye for perfection to the house that he honed as a chef trained under old master Raymond Blanc of Oxfordshire’s Le Manoir aux Quat’Saisons. His priceless experience is allied to a firm belief in same-day freshness. That’s why your vegetables, fruit and herbs come straight from our two-acre walled garden and why your lamb and salmon come direct from the Longueville farm and the Blackrock River that runs through the land.

Hunting and fishing for guests are on site. In winter, it’s duck and pheasant; in summer, fresh river salmon on the Blackwater River. When the leaves fall, you can hunt mushrooms on the 500-acre wooded grounds. Beyond Longueville, the Blackwater Way, the Nagle Mountains and the Boggeraghs await discovery - on foot or bike. Fly-fish the rivers, shoot game or clay pigeon, enjoy our mid-summer concerts, winter game dinners and Christmas luncheon parties. Stay a week or just one night, in numbers up to 40.

Directions

Longueville is located 3 miles (5km) west of Mallow off the N72 road to Killarney.

Description

Guests can dine in the President's Restaurant where much of the ingredients are sourced from estate's gardens, river and farm. You can all enjoy dinner at the Turner Conservatory which is a beautiful conservatory which was built by Richard Turner in 1866 who was known to be one of the greatest designers of glasshouses during the Victorian era.

When you stay at Longueville you can enjoy a walk through the oak trees, the walled garden, the canal walk or the smoke walk. The countryside surrounding the house and estate provides opportunities for golfing, fly fishing, lake fishing, hill walking and horse riding. There's exclusive brown trout and salmon fishing on site.
Longueville House is a great base for touring the south west as it's within easy driving distance of all corners of Munster.

Room Features (Back to top)

Longueville House feels like home. Beautifully maintained over many years and generously proportioned, it’s sumptuous, inviting and lived-in.  Whether you’re getting away from it all, taking a romantic weekend, rekindling memories or reigniting old flames, you’ll find a warm welcome at Longueville.
With family art on the walls, window boxes stocked with flowers freshly cut from the grounds, open log fires and modern bathrooms with good-pressure hot water, every comfort is assured. After a day on the fells or fly-fishing the Blackwater River, Mother Nature gives way to a sophisticated, warm atmosphere in which exquisite dining takes centre stage. Returning to Longueville feels like coming home.

With 20 tasteful rooms all with ensuite bathrooms, DDI telephone, TV and radio, Longueville House can accommodate up to 40.
 

NB: Family Room can ONLY accommodate 2 adults and 2 children strictly.

The Library

Activities/ Facilities (Back to top)

As benefits an award-winning restaurant venue, many of Longueville’s activities focus on food. But there are plenty other ways to enjoy yourself, from fly-fishing to hunting to mountain biking and hearty walks across the Nagle Mountains and the Boggeraghs.

At Longueville, events are as seasonal as the food. There are mushroom hunts in October, concerts and evening supper in summer, game dinners in winter. At Christmas, the house comes alive, with luncheon parties and fashion shows. We even host pre-Christmas boutique bonanzas, where designer vendors set up shop inside the house and we open our doors to around 250 women. With nibbles, canapés and a glass of bubbly, it’s the perfect staff outing for the girls. Why not join our cookery demonstrations and lessons? Accompany our chef as he picks food fresh from the gardens for the day’s menu and prepares it all in our kitchens.

For the more active, there are many designated longer-distance walking trails within 25 minutes, including the Duhallow Way, The Blackwater Way, The Ballyhoura Way, the Nagle Mountains and the Boggeraghs. Bike, walk or climb - the choice is yours. For those simply wanting to work up an appetite, a shorter Sli na Slainte route in Mallow is just three miles away

Horse lovers will find the Duhallow Hunt, one of oldest in the British Isles and Ireland, right on the doorstep, as is Mallow racecourse, making Longueville an ideal stopover for owners and trainers. Ireland’s largest show jumping event, Millstreet, is less than an hour away.

Presidents Restaurant

Facilities (Back to top)

The Presidents’ Restaurant is at the heart of Longueville, and the menu comes straight from the estate. There’s fresh salmon from the Blackwater river; meat and game from the farm. Vegetables and herbs come from the walled kitchen garden. Only the extensive New and Old World wine list is drawn from farther field.

Alternatively, dine in the Turner Conservatory with its architecture by Richard Turner, the finest ironmaster and glasshouse designer of the Victorian era. Light, bright and intimate, the conservatory will lift your spirits.

Chef William trained under master chef Raymond Blanc at Le Manoir aux Quat’Saisons, a two-Michelin-star restaurant where the menu is described as having ‘a twist of imaginative genius’.

William has brought that twist to Ireland’s south-western corner, where ingredients such as pork, lamb, woodcock, snipe, salmon, honey and oriental salad come straight from the estate.

Homemade liqueurs, brandies, tureens, chutneys, vacuum-packed smoked salmon, spices, jams and preserves are also all available. William even draws water from his own well and wine from a small vineyard.

NB - Dinner reservations are essential and required 24 hours before arrival day or we cannot guarantee a table on the night of your arrival.

Where business meets pleasure
Meeting rooms flood with natural daylight; rooms come with fax, photocopier, TV, projector and flipcharts; the chairs are comfortable. Our gardens are landscaped, the cuisine memorable. Choose from the Mount Hillary Room, holding up to 20 delegates theatre-style, or The Cellars, catering for up to 45. Whichever you choose, your hosts provide a highly personalised service and a working environment with no distractions.
