Fota Island Resort is just off the N25 at the Cobh exit, where it intersects with the R624, before you get to Fota Wildlife Park. After the mini roundabout at the slip road of the N25, follow the signs for Cobh, you will pass Bramley Cottage Restaurant on your left. Fota Resort is the next entrance on the right with large cream entrance walls, when you turn in to the gates follow the main driveway up through the trees until they open out.
