The Hat Maker is a stunning 16-bedroom boutique hotel run by husband-and-wife team Rebecca Queally and David Burke, that champions the handmade with contemporary comforts and has a particularly vibrant and appealing aesthetic. And now, one lucky reader and golf enthusiast has the chance to win a two-night stay and chance to play the Dungarvan Golf Triangle. During your two night stay, guests can take advantage of three championship golf courses just five minutes’ drive from Dungarvan with green fees to play all three of the Dungarvan Golf Triangle; Dungarvan Golf Club which is set against the backdrop of the Comeragh Mountains, Gold Coast Golf Club bordered by the Atlantic Ocean and West Waterford Golf Club on the banks of the Brickey River. Mornings at The Hat Maker begin with pastries from local bakery Dún, alongside smoked salmon, cheese, cold cuts, granola bowls and overnight oats – all beautifully presented and the perfect start before another round. Perfectly located in the heart of Dungarvan, The Hat Maker opened last May and has quickly become a local gem.
