‘I drink to make other people more interesting.’

Earnest Hemmingway

Cullen’s at the Cottage has been an iconic

landmark of Cong Village for decades. Originally

Cong’s local cinema, it now stands proudly

dedicated to the memory of Peter Cullen - the

Maître d’ of Ashford Castle for over 35 years.

Within this Beverage List we have chosen the

highest quality tipples for you to enjoy. All the

drinks tell a tale - one of nature - from seed to

stem - from production to bottle - each sip

expressing the beauty and nature of its

surroundings.

enjoyment. Please let us know if you have any

questions regarding our much-loved selection.
