Thank you to all the visitors who visited our stand at Donegal Live in Dublin last Sunday 16th May.

As requested by many of you, I have put together a ‘Cook Up a Party’ Weekend at the special rate of €199pps. The offer includes 2BB 2Gourmet Dinners & 1 Cookery Lesson with our Award Winning Chef Anthony Armstrong.
The weekend (or Mid week, if it suits better) starts with arrival at Donegal Manor between 2-6pm to home made scones and refreshments.

At 8pm the rest of the group will arrive to a Wine Reception, and together you will enjoy the fruits of your labour.. Let the Party Begin!
All guests have the opportunity to explore Donegal, play golf, walk, shop etc on Saturday. The 2nd Group will meet up with Chef Anthony late afternoon to begin their Gourmet Cookery lesson.
