They’ve got some lovely breaks and events planned, where you can escape with your sweetheart and allow the feeling of love and romance to envelope you.

Enjoy the One Night Five Star Valentine Break,  Two Night Valentine’s Gourmet Escape with Signature Cuisine or Three Nights Breakfast in Bed and Two Romantic Dinners at Cork city’s five star Hayfield Manor Hotel. The Manor is tucked away on private grounds, but only a short stroll from city sights. Your loved one will love it and so will you.

The stunning coastline of the Wild Atlantic Way is sure to raise the passion stakes this Valentine’s season. How could you or your lover resist the tempestuous unpredictability, the wild rugged charm, the utter magic of the imposing Atlantic Ocean and its awe inspiring coastal scenery. After all that wide open space to get the pulse racing, a romantic Arts and Crafts hotel on the coast in Co. Galway is the perfect spot to cosy up for Valentine’s Night. Book yourself in for the Romantic Food Getaway at Renvyle House Hotel. This will be two nights in blissful surroundings, with attentive and friendly staff and gourmet food. Your every whim will be taken care of while you’re there.

In Slane, County Meath, a stately home turned luxurious Country House Hotel is also waiting to welcome lovers. Tankardstown House sits on its own private estate, a perfect spot to stroll hand in hand. A Gourmet Escape with One Night Stay brings fresh country air, exquisite accommodation and gourmet food together, on February 14th. Or try Head Chef Robbie Krawcyzk’s ‘pairing and sharing’ feast of the Five Course Tasting Menu devised specially for lovers.

In the capital, Cornucopia is cranking up the romance-ometer for Valentine’s night. Candlelight, roses and a glass of Prosecco start the proceedings for a Three Course Gourmet Vegan Valentine’s Dinner at this famous vegetarian and vegan restaurant in the city centre. Something very different!  This is a great way to introduce yourself and your partner to the idea that you don’t always need meat or animal products for a superlative meal. Committed vegetarians and vegans out there will adore it.
