Located on the shores of Lough Melagh and featuring impressive gardens, this refined, ecclesiastical-style castle provides the most stunning backdrop. The neo-Gothic ancestral home of The Tenison Family, featuring a legendary history, is one of a few Irish castle estates with a traceable royal heritage, making it the perfect setting to begin your own fairy-tale wedding day.

Kilronan’s easily accessible location makes it an ideal choice if you have guests attending from far and wide, whilst its versatile spaces are perfect for creating your bespoke wedding - be it intimate or extravagant - each seamlessly delivered by an experienced and dedicated wedding team.

Featuring a range of seasonal wedding packages to cater for weddings from the very intimate to up to 380 guests, Kilronan Castle features award-winning food and drink and luxurious guest accommodation to add even more magic to your special day.

Timeless, Romantic Setting

Abound in character and old-world charm and splendour, this 18th-century castle can deliver you a wedding of your dreams. Interiors brim with opulent fabrics and ornate design, whilst outside the magnificent lake shimmers in the light creating exquisite photograph opportunities.

Your Ceremony

Your guests will be greeted with a red-carpet welcome into Kilronan Castle, whilst the bridal party enjoys a stylish Prosecco reception before the ceremony begins, providing the perfect moment for you to relax and unwind with loved ones before walking down the aisle.

Smaller, intimate ceremonies can be held in the Library or Palm Court Lake Terrace, featuring high ceilings and original stone work, whilst larger ceremonies can take place in the Grand Ballroom, beautifully illuminated under breath-taking chandeliers.

Should you choose to have a humanist ceremony, this can be carried out overlooking the glistening lake and before the backdrop of the castle.

Reception Drinks

The Dungeon Bar offers a captivating setting for your post-ceremony drinks and canapés, with its cosy ambiance enhanced by roaring open fires in the winter months. The nearby candlelit Wine Cellar adds to the enchanting atmosphere, perfect for memorable photos.

In warmer seasons, guests can enjoy pink Champagne on the Lake Terrace, taking in the serene beauty of Lough Meelagh.

During the celebrations, the wedding party is encouraged to wander through the estate’s tranquil woodlands, stroll along the winding pathways and discover the hidden corners of Kilronan’s picturesque grounds.

Your Wedding Dinner

With a microphone and PA system provided for your speeches, you can ensure every word is heard clearly whilst the dressed mirror-top cake table, complete with the iconic castle sword, adds an extra layer of charm and sophistication to lead you into the evening celebrations.

Into the Evening

Intimate weddings under 50 guests would move into the elegant Dungeon Bar to hold the evening wedding celebrations, richly decorated with luxurious leather Chesterfield settees and ancestral portraits and historical features.

Keep up the fantastic work!!!
Private Guest10/10. Highly recommend to anyone. Staff were all so lovely. Great facilities. Food was amazing and exceptionally reasonable. Great options for vegetarians also! Lovely walks around lake. Spa was so relaxing, definitely worth doing the thermal suite. Couldn't fault it!
Private GuestWe had the most amazing time in Kilronan Castle. For the moment we arrived we felt it was home from home. The staff are amazing and so friendly. To our surprise we got upgraded which was a lovely surprise. The tower suite was unbelievable we will definitely be back. The restaurant and food were out of this world with top class service. Our experience was amazing can't wait to come back.
Private GuestRelaxing ambience from the moment you walk into the lobby. Impressive art and decor throughout the whole castle. But the quality of food stood out but not more than the quality of service and staff. So impressed with everyone at the desk but most of all so impressed with Anthony and his kind and generous interactions. The floor staff at the breakfast are also incredibly kind and friendly.
