Welcome to Ballyvolane House, a historic Irish country house of extraordinary warmth, style and comfort that provides luxury accommodation and salmon fishing on the river Blackwater, located in the North Cork countryside of southern Ireland. With only 6 bedrooms in total and Glamping during summer months you can be assured to enjoy the peacefulness of the Irish countryside during your stay with us. We now offer a 'glamping' option in the form of bell tents from May to September. We have luxurious 4M bell tents designed to accommodate 2 people and 5M tents which can accommodate 2 adults and up to 2 children. Our 'Glampers' will be given a 'glamping box' on arrival containing essentials such as matches, water, local Crinnaughtaun Apple juice, a jar of homemade chocolate cookies, maps of the estate and a torch and head-lamps. The bell tents are fully kitted out with raised timber beds, super-comfy mattresses made by the Natural Mat Company. The mattresses are stuffed with recycled jeans and organic lamb's wool and covered with washable cotton ticking. The beds will be made-up with proper cotton sheets, pillows, duvets, and blankets. Towels will be provided. A tea-light chandelier will hang from the centre pole to provide light and heat, and the tents will be furnished with bed-side tables, chairs, coir carpet and ample lighting. You can actually stand upright inside the tents. Full Irish breakfast (served till noon) will be served the next morning in the main house. Luxurious loos and showers are located adjacent to the camping area. Please note 'check-in' time is 3pm and 'check-out' time is 12noon. The wash house is furnished with mirrors, good lighting, clothes-hooks and we have hair-dryers. We promise a fantastic and warm night's sleep in a stunning, quiet, country house garden setting.
