Why stay in Ballybunion for the Ryder Cup?

Around an hour from Adare Manor

Ballybunion is roughly 67 km from Adare, about an hour by car. There is no spectator parking at Adare Manor itself, so fans travel in on the official park and ride shuttles, which need to be booked in advance. Drive to your park and ride in the morning, enjoy the golf, and come back to the peace of the Kerry coast in the evening instead of the crowds of the city.

Breakfast from 5am for early starts
