A MEMORABLE EXPERIENCE AROUND THE TABLE
HOWTH CASTLE COOKERY SCHOOL
Howth Cookery School offers a hands-on way to experience the flavours of the coast, pairing expert tuition with the atmosphere of one of Dublin’s best-loved harbour towns.
A cookery class in Howth is a chance to step into the kitchen, learn something new and enjoy the pleasure of creating a meal together.
With the harbour close by and local ingredients at the centre of the experience, it makes a thoughtful addition to a couple’s getaway, a weekend with friends or a celebration in Dublin.
Choose a class that suits your interests, allow time to explore Howth before or afterwards, then return to The Grand Hotel with stories, new skills and perhaps a few ideas for your own kitchen. It is an experience designed to be shared.

ON YOUR DOORSTEP
BEGIN IN MALAHIDE
Some of the area’s most memorable experiences begin just moments from the hotel. Wander through Malahide Village, where independent shops, cafés and the marina create an easy-going coastal atmosphere, or step into centuries of local story at Malahide Castle & Gardens. With the village, castle grounds and shoreline close by, there is no need to travel far to make a day feel well spent.
SEA AIR & OPEN ROADS
FOLLOW THE COAST
Beyond Malahide, the Fingal coastline opens out into long sandy beaches, harbour towns and sea-view walks. Head to Portmarnock for an expansive beach stroll, hire a bike and explore at your own pace, or make the journey to Howth for harbour dining and dramatic cliffside views. It is an invitation to take the scenic route, with every turn offering a new perspective on Dublin’s north coast.
EXPLORE FINGAL
GARDENS, ESTATES, & COASTLINE
Take the time to explore the wider character of Fingal, where historic estates meet open parkland and the Irish Sea. Discover the gardens and coastal views of Ardgillan Castle, step back in time at Newbridge House & Farm, or travel north to Skerries Mills for a glimpse of traditional craft and coastal village life. Each offers an easy day out from Malahide, with space to wander, pause and see a different side of Dublin.
DUBLIN WITHIN REACH
MAKE A DAY OF THE CITY
Dublin City is close enough to enjoy at your own pace, whether you are planning a family day out, attending a major sporting occasion or taking in the capital’s best-known sights. Visit Dublin Zoo in Phoenix Park, experience the atmosphere of Croke Park or Aviva Stadium, or see the city through a guided DoDublin tour. When the day is done, return to The Grand Hotel and the calmer rhythm of the coast.
YOUR MALAHIDE BASE
A STAY MADE FOR SEEING MORE
The Grand Hotel brings together the ease of a coastal stay with access to the very best of Malahide, Fingal and Dublin City. Start with breakfast overlooking the water, set out for a day of discovery, then return for considered dining, a drink in the bar or a quiet evening in your room. Every stay offers the freedom to experience more, without losing sight of the moments that make time away feel special.
