Hotel and golf resort staff in limbo as resort owner fails to attend meeting in Cork

While the hotel was always due to close for January, staff were until last weekend operating under the assumption that it would reopen for business in February.

Hotel workers who fear their jobs are at risk have been left in limbo after the complex owner failed to attend a meeting this morning to discuss the future of the business.

The Armagh-based developer, who bought the Blarney Golf Resort north of Cork City just over two years ago, pulled out of this morning’s scheduled meeting with the staff just days after he ordered the immediate and indefinite closure of the resort’s leisure and gym complex.
