Work of art in Ardmore

ARDMORE’S Michelin-starred Cliff House Hotel has brought the rich, the famous, and those in need of pampering and fantastic food to the west Waterford seaside setting.

More than a few of them have also developed a grá for the place’s understated charms, many beaches, rolling rich pastoral charms, and the village’s welcome.

It worked for artist Brenda Harris, ever before the architectural stunner Cliff House Hotel set out its stall and reaped garlands of praise and media column inches for its food. Brenda’s gone on to teach art classes here for hotel guests, as well as in her home studios, and is working towards a big exhibition coming up in the Ardmore hotel in October. Inspired, or what?
