Living and Entertaining at Riverview

Riverview is built around generous shared spaces that make group stays feel easy from the moment you arrive.Unlike many large group properties, the social space at Riverview doesn’t stop at the front door, instead it flows naturally out into the gardens, making the entire property feel like one connected entertaining space.

The kitchen is fully equipped for group self-catering, with ample space for preparing meals together and everything you need to comfortably cater for a large group.

The adjoining dining space allows everyone to sit down together, a feature that turns a good group stay into a memorable one.

And if you’d rather not cook, we can arrange a private chef, organise restaurant bookings in Kinsale, or help plan in-house experiences such as cocktail making or DJ evening. Just let us know what you have in mind when you enquire.

For many groups, this becomes the space where most of the memories are made.
