It’s no secret that Christmas shopping can be a little bit of a chore. The crowds, the fluster, the seemingly never-ending list… but why not make an experience out of it? Cork is an incredible city for shopping, and there’s no better partner than The River Lee, who have a great package available this year for anyone looking to hit the shops.

The Luxury Shopping Experience is a must for anyone who still needs to pick up some gifts. The motherland of shopping, Brown Thomas, is always an ideal spot for Christmas presents, and when you book into The River Lee for The Luxury Shopping Experience, you get a 20% discount voucher for the Cork branch, meaning you’ll save a pretty penny of anything you buy.

Most importantly, you’ll have a beautiful superior room for two nights, so you can rest your head in peace after a heavy day hitting the high street (there’s plenty of room for your shopping bags, too). You’ll also enjoy a sumptuous brunch each morning, so you can replenish yourself for the day ahead.

On one evening you’ll sit down for a three-course evening meal, the ideal way to toast to your successes in the super stylish Weir Rooms. If you want to feel a little virtuous, you can also head into the onsite NRG Fitness Centre, where you can have a swim or book into a complimentary workout class.

• Two nights’ accommodation in a beautifully appointed superior room
