Hotel
We'll be staying here on the night of our wedding, as well as the night before our wedding, and we encourage you to stay here as well. We have a block reserved, so email the hotel at reservations@fotaisland.ie and let the hotel know that you're with the Kavanagh wedding to get a discount.
Hotel
If you decide to stay in Cobh, the Bella Vista is very near St. Colman's Cathedral (perfect if you want to take the shuttles mentioned below), and is the best option in town! In addition to their rooms, their self-catering suites are a great option for families or groups, especially if you're staying for a few days.
Shuttle
September 23, 2022 12:30 pm - 2:00 am
There will be multiple shuttles/buses running between Fota Island Resort and St. Colman's Cathedral ensuring that guests staying at Fota Island Resort or in Cobh won't need to drive their own cars.
Flight
Getting to Cobh and Cork City from the US will involve at least one flight and either a train/bus/car trip. AerLingus has many direct flights to Ireland and is probably the cheapest, quality airline. We recommend that you fly straight to Cork via connecting flights, but if you decide to land in Dublin, there are also bus and car-rental options from the airport, or a train from Dublin City.
Train
If you decide to take the train from Dublin City, get off at Cork Kent Railway Station, where there are taxis available just outside the station that you can take to Cobh or Fota Island Resort.
Rental Car
If you're arriving by plane at Cork Airport, taxis and rental cars are available. If you're feeling brave, we recommend flying into Cork Airport and renting a car to enjoy more flexibility and freedom throughout your trip. Click "View" to get more information about the available car-rental options.
