was the exceptional staff. Every team member went above and beyond to ensure that everything ran smoothly. They were incredibly helpful, friendly, and attentive throughout the entire process—from the initial planning stages to the last song of the night. Our guests kept commenting on how amazing and professional the staff were, which made the day even more memorable.
The venue itself is stunning, with gorgeous event spaces and lovely outdoor areas that were perfect for photos. The food was also fantastic, and the service was top-notch. We couldn't have asked for a more perfect place to celebrate our special day, and we are so grateful to the team at Castle Oaks House Hotel for making it all come together.
We highly recommend Castle Oaks House Hotel to anyone looking for a wedding venue. It’s a beautiful place with incredible service, and it truly made our wedding day unforgettable!

everyone to come and just enjoy the day.
The menu tasting was great with the food being even better on the day.
The day itself was lovely and we got the exact vibe we wanted, relaxed and fun. We had loads of compliments on the venue and I think my favourite part was how private it felt, the moonlight walk to the Shannon through the trees was an absolute bonus too.
Over all a great experience and we're very grateful to all the staff that helped make the day exactly what we hoped for.

From our first visit to Castle Oaks to view the hotel and the warm welcome we received we knew this was the venue we would choose. Martina the wedding coordinator was just fantastic, always available to answer questions and very accommodating to us and she made everything we talked about come to life. Enough good things can't be said about the staff, they are simply amazing. Every time we went out to visit the hotel we were met with a cup of tea and someone was always on hand to offer our little boy some pictures to colour to keep him entertained. They couldn't have done any more for us. We will be forever grateful to everyone at Castle Oaks for giving us the most memorable day of our lives.

big day all questions and queries were answered swiftly and no ask was too big.
Martina, Theresa and the rest of the staff made our day so special I wish I could do it all over again and would not change a thing. The food was out of this world, the staff so helpful and polite made every one of our guests feel so welcome and at home that we were getting compliments for weeks following the wedding “as the best wedding they had been to in years”.
We wish to thank Martina, the management team, and all the chefs and servers who were with us for making our day so perfect and unforgettable.

MagFhloinn provided an intimate and personalised celebration. Castle Oaks is located within a stunning landscape, making it the perfect place for photos and Mrs RedHead, our photographer, did a stunning job, capturing all those special moments, including the infamous rock scene. We were very lucky with the weather and having all of our photos taken on the grounds meant we could join our guests for the reception outside with the fabulous Treble & Bass entertaining us.
After indulging in delicious canapés and Prosecco under the sun, we then moved inside for our meal. James Sexton (Hiya Entertainment) had us singing and dancing throughout the meal. The food was just to die for. James and the staff at Castle Oaks worked hand in hand to create a fun atmosphere which was important to us. After the meal, House Party kept us on the dance floor before Adam Sexton brought us into the early hours.
We had such a great time as well as our guests which made it so special. Thank you to all the staff at Castle Oaks House & Estate, especially to Martina who made it everything we had wished for!

Martina was our wedding coordinator, and she was fantastic throughout the entire planning process. The day itself went off without a hitch, and the staff were unbelievable.
The food was gorgeous, with plenty to choose from and more than enough to go around. Everyone commented on how great it was. We had just over 90 guests, and almost everyone booked a room for the night. Between the house itself and the apartments, it was just perfect. We had the best wedding ever at Castle Oaks and would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for the perfect wedding day.

the riverbank. It was very convenient, as we never had to leave the hotel once we arrived, allowing us to spend time with our guests and fully enjoy the reception.
We were blessed with a sunny day, so we had our ceremony outside, and the setup arranged by the hotel was beautiful. The staff were amazing to deal with—so friendly and helpful. We had the pleasure of working with Martina, the wedding coordinator, who is truly fantastic at her job. The service provided was outstanding, and the food and drinks were plentiful. Our guests were very happy with the choices available.
The cost was very reasonable compared to other hotels, and you really get great value for money with what is offered. It’s a small hotel, making it an intimate venue. We had the entire hotel booked for our guests, so we had the place to ourselves.
I could not recommend this hotel enough for anyone considering booking it for their special day!

we imagined our day would look. So, the biggest and utmost thank you to Martina and the professional, friendly team.
Our guests were blown away by the venue from top to bottom—the drinks reception, the decor, the food, and the incredibly nice and friendly staff. They couldn’t do enough for us or our guests, especially Maggie and Jacqueline Corcoran. They were so attentive and friendly, and nothing was too much trouble. We really appreciate everything they did for us, especially helping to decorate the most beautiful venue in our eyes.
We had the best time on Saturday, July 20th. We honestly never imagined the day going as smoothly as it did, and that was thanks to the amazing efforts of Theresa and her team that night—ensuring meal times ran perfectly and being so attentive to us and our guests, making sure everyone had enough food and refreshments.
We want to thank Theresa and the staff who worked that night. The biggest thank you from us. Our guests have been raving about how amazing the venue, food, music, and overall ambience of the day were, and that is largely thanks to you and your team’s efforts. We are delighted we chose Castle Oaks, Castleconnell, as our wedding venue—it unbelievably exceeded our expectations. We will, without a doubt, be recommending you to our friends, and we look forward to celebrating our anniversary with you in the future.
Thanks again for everything you did for us on our wedding day.

I’d like to make a special mention of two outstanding staff members, sisters Maggie and Josie, who were not only the deciding factor in booking our wedding at Castle Oaks House but also gave us a warm welcome every time we visited. Thankfully, we had the gorgeous Maggie as part of our day, and for that, we were so grateful. It’s heartwarming to see a hotel that truly understands the value of genuine, good staff. Everyone we encountered was just that.
Thank you so, so much, Nathan and Deirdre Cody

James and the kitchen crew produced some of the most amazing food that had a host of chefs raving about it. Theresa and Leah were there at every stage to mind, support and fix the dress, and ensure the guests were truly happy. To Maggie and Josephine and Alex, who minded my sugars better than I did. The menu, the food, the little touches that allowed us to make the wedding more ours. So many travelled far and still are complementing the carved ham rolls to fill the gap.
So much effort was put in by all the staff, we truly don't know how to thank you enough. I'm sorry it has taken so long to write these little words of thanks. Martha and Derek Flynn

accommodate family member's room stays and little niggly things like that which would have been very stressful if not for their help.
Then the day came and wow, the place looked amazing. We got married in April and our guests are still raving about the food from the canapes, to the stunning main meal and then the delicious evening food, leaving all our guests with full bellies.
Martina and her staff were incredible for the little touches, such as not only having "no secco" available for my sister-in-law but also seeking her out to let her know it was there. Also, they had the ingredients available for my husband's favourite cocktail for his big day.
Special mention to Aaron who was an excellent bartender and more than one of my guests recognised not only his helpfulness but how he remembered orders quickly. Josephine was one of the loveliest waiters I’ve met, so warm and friendly. She made excellent recommendations and was just very good at her job.
The hotel itself was as beautiful as ever (even on a rainy day in April) and of course spotlessly clean. It was just a perfect day and Castle Oaks and their amazing grounds and staff played a huge part in that.
I highly recommend this venue for your wedding day. We couldn’t have asked for better. From the food to the stunning grounds, to the beautiful interior and the excellent staff. 10 out of 10

Our coordinator is a whizz at her job and handed over to a colleague on the actual day so seamlessly. Everything ran smoothly and on time. We hadn't a worry in the world on the day.
And having the Christmas decorations just made it all more magical.

everyone at the table was served at the same time was very classy.
They were very flexible the whole way along, putting no pressure on us to make decisions until we were ready. And even on the second day, they changed the timing of the meal and the number to cater for with minutes notice.
The setting is obviously beautiful but the professionalism, excellence and patience all the staff showed us throughout our wedding preparation was second to none and cannot be described in words alone.

the wedding and the day after. Everything ran so smoothly. All queries were dealt with professionally, efficiently and in a timely manner. It made our lives so much easier and we were able to enjoy the day. Secondly, we would like to thank Irene. She put us at ease and dealt with everything superbly.
Additionally, there are perfect opportunities to take lots of nice photos both on the grounds of the hotel and down by the river. There is also a lovely walk down by the river. Overall, all the staff in the Castle Oaks were a pleasure to deal with. The bedrooms are amazing, very spacious and comfortable. The food is also fantastic. Again, we would like to thank the Castle Oaks for everything.

happy we were on the day. The whole process of planning our big day, from the viewing and the tastings to the table planning and personal touches Liam suggested for our day we cannot recommend Castle Oaks Hotel enough. The whole day and evening was fun, relaxed and seamless. I would also like to thank Patrick who showed my grandmother and mother around on a visit to the hotel before the wedding. Thanks also to Irenee with the smooth running of the room allocations.
I would also like to especially mention Liam who was an amazing help leading up to and on the day. Thank you so much for all the tips and tricks along the way, especially for the personal touches, our guests loved the photos of us on the mantel. BTW the chicken salad was a definite winner on the day. We are still getting so many compliments on the reception and service so we just want to finish up by again saying thank you and that we will definitely be back! Can we do it all again?!

grateful to them for putting my mind at ease in that stressful time period, which really speaks to their experience and professionalism. The day itself was amazing - what a beautiful backdrop to get married in, no matter what time of year. With an open fire place, exquisite decor and luxurious carpets, our guests settled in for a mulled wine reception. The Castle Oaks catered easily to our civil ceremony before turning the room around for the meal, which was probably the best I have ever had at a wedding. Everyone complimented the quality of food and nobody could say they went hungry! I cannot recommend highly enough and look forward to visiting again!

The menu tasting was great with the food being even better on the day.
The day itself was lovely and we got the exact vibe we wanted, relaxed and fun. We had loads of compliments on the venue and I think my favourite part was how private it felt, the moonlight walk to the Shannon through the trees was an absolute bonus too.
Over all a great experience and we're very grateful to all the staff that helped make the day exactly what we hoped for.

From our first visit to Castle Oaks to view the hotel and the warm welcome we received we knew this was the venue we would choose. Martina the wedding coordinator was just fantastic, always available to answer questions and very accommodating to us and she made everything we talked about come to life. Enough good things can't be said about the staff, they are simply amazing. Every time we went out to visit the hotel we were met with a cup of tea and someone was always on hand to offer our little boy some pictures to colour to keep him entertained. They couldn't have done any more for us. We will be forever grateful to everyone at Castle Oaks for giving us the most memorable day of our lives.

After indulging in delicious canapés and Prosecco under the sun, we then moved inside for our meal. James Sexton (Hiya Entertainment) had us singing and dancing throughout the meal. The food was just to die for. James and the staff at Castle Oaks worked hand in hand to create a fun atmosphere which was important to us. After the meal, House Party kept us on the dance floor before Adam Sexton brought us into the early hours.
We had such a great time as well as our guests which made it so special. Thank you to all the staff at Castle Oaks House & Estate, especially to Martina who made it everything we had wished for!

We were blessed with a sunny day, so we had our ceremony outside, and the setup arranged by the hotel was beautiful. The staff were amazing to deal with—so friendly and helpful. We had the pleasure of working with Martina, the wedding coordinator, who is truly fantastic at her job. The service provided was outstanding, and the food and drinks were plentiful. Our guests were very happy with the choices available.
The cost was very reasonable compared to other hotels, and you really get great value for money with what is offered. It’s a small hotel, making it an intimate venue. We had the entire hotel booked for our guests, so we had the place to ourselves.
I could not recommend this hotel enough for anyone considering booking it for their special day!

Our guests were blown away by the venue from top to bottom—the drinks reception, the decor, the food, and the incredibly nice and friendly staff. They couldn’t do enough for us or our guests, especially Maggie and Jacqueline Corcoran. They were so attentive and friendly, and nothing was too much trouble. We really appreciate everything they did for us, especially helping to decorate the most beautiful venue in our eyes.
We had the best time on Saturday, July 20th. We honestly never imagined the day going as smoothly as it did, and that was thanks to the amazing efforts of Theresa and her team that night—ensuring meal times ran perfectly and being so attentive to us and our guests, making sure everyone had enough food and refreshments.
We want to thank Theresa and the staff who worked that night. The biggest thank you from us. Our guests have been raving about how amazing the venue, food, music, and overall ambience of the day were, and that is largely thanks to you and your team’s efforts. We are delighted we chose Castle Oaks, Castleconnell, as our wedding venue—it unbelievably exceeded our expectations. We will, without a doubt, be recommending you to our friends, and we look forward to celebrating our anniversary with you in the future.
Thanks again for everything you did for us on our wedding day.

I’d like to make a special mention of two outstanding staff members, sisters Maggie and Josie, who were not only the deciding factor in booking our wedding at Castle Oaks House but also gave us a warm welcome every time we visited. Thankfully, we had the gorgeous Maggie as part of our day, and for that, we were so grateful. It’s heartwarming to see a hotel that truly understands the value of genuine, good staff. Everyone we encountered was just that.

James and the kitchen crew produced some of the most amazing food that had a host of chefs raving about it. Theresa and Leah were there at every stage to mind, support and fix the dress, and ensure the guests were truly happy. To Maggie and Josephine and Alex, who minded my sugars better than I did. The menu, the food, the little touches that allowed us to make the wedding more ours. So many travelled far and still are complementing the carved ham rolls to fill the gap.
So much effort was put in by all the staff, we truly don't know how to thank you enough. I'm sorry it has taken so long to write these little words of thanks. Martha and Derek Flynn

Then the day came and wow, the place looked amazing. We got married in April and our guests are still raving about the food from the canapes, to the stunning main meal and then the delicious evening food, leaving all our guests with full bellies.
Martina and her staff were incredible for the little touches, such as not only having "no secco" available for my sister-in-law but also seeking her out to let her know it was there. Also, they had the ingredients available for my husband's favourite cocktail for his big day.
Special mention to Aaron who was an excellent bartender and more than one of my guests recognised not only his helpfulness but how he remembered orders quickly. Josephine was one of the loveliest waiters I’ve met, so warm and friendly. She made excellent recommendations and was just very good at her job.
The hotel itself was as beautiful as ever (even on a rainy day in April) and of course spotlessly clean. It was just a perfect day and Castle Oaks and their amazing grounds and staff played a huge part in that.
I highly recommend this venue for your wedding day. We couldn’t have asked for better. From the food to the stunning grounds, to the beautiful interior and the excellent staff. 10 out of 10
