A sanctuary suspended in nature, the Woodland Suite Experience reimagines hospitality through nest-like forms cantilevered above the trees, overlooking Cork City and the River Lee. Completed in 2024 by Róisín Lafferty in collaboration with Henry J. Lyons, the nine suites dissolve boundaries between inside and out. Natural tones and textures mirror the woodland, while charred timber and sedum roofs embed sustainability. The result is a restorative retreat of quiet confidence, where luxury and nature exist in seamless balance.
