We had our wedding on the 10/12/2024 and from our very first meeting with Karen we felt special. We were gifted with a welcome pack upon our first meeting which made our decision to choose The Glenside a lot easier. What really made the decision easier was the option of creating our own package to

suit our budget.
Once we made our decision to choose The Glenside, we felt a huge weight off our shoulders as they took care of everything to do with the reception. All we had to do was provide the information to them.
On the day itself, it was just amazing. It couldn't have gone any better. Rhea (the coordinator) was on top of everything and everything went so smoothly. The food was amazing too. All our guests were very happy too. The bridal suite was beautiful, my only regret is we didn't stay another night to really enjoy it.
The following day the staff were still treating us like royalty.
Looking back on everything, we are so happy that we chose The Glenside. We received so much for the money we paid. We definitely got value for our money and more.
I can't wait to return for our first wedding anniversary.

Myself and Jessica had the best time of our lives.
From the moment we stepped into The Glenside, the staff were amazing. We were so looked after on a 5-star personal level. Karen and Aogán (owners) are the most nice and genuine people you’ll ever meet. They made everything feel special and made

sure they looked after every request we made. All the hotel staff were amazing. The food was amazing, the hotel has just been renovated so the rooms & everywhere look outstanding.
The Glenside will always have a special place in our hearts and we will always remember the time we had. I cannot fault anything at all with this hotel or our wedding, because they made everything go so smoothly. Even with the Storm Éowyn happening on our wedding day, they told us they would make it work and that they did! I cannot believe the effort the hotel had put into our day, even letting the staff stay the night before, so our wedding could go ahead! Thank you so much for everything. I highly recommend The Glenside!

wedding on Tue, 31st of December, 2024
From start to finish Aogan, Karen and the team couldn't do enough for us. Planning wasn't stressful at all due to the organisation of the team and everything in the all-inclusive package, there was no looking for a photographer, flowers, DJ, decorations etc as this was all covered and for such a

reasonable price.
The bridal suite was stunning, and the morning of the wedding was relaxed and fun. We didn't need to worry about any of the details for the ceremony and reception, Aogan guided us and led us through it all, every detail was 100 per cent. Staff amazing through the night, beautiful food great atmosphere. Guests are still contacting us saying it's one of the best weddings they've ever been to. Would highly recommend The Glenside to anyone looking for a fabulous, stress-free wedding.

it. For us, it was a 5-star experience without a doubt. From the excellent cleanliness & beauty of the hotel to the delicious meals, the professionalism of the team and their very high standards, this is a real little gem of a hotel not to be overlooked. It is very hard to find such great standards and all-round fantastic value. We can not praise and thank you all enough Karen & all Glenside hotel staff

Myself and David have just gotten married with the help of Karen and Aogán. They made our day so special and took care of absolutely everything we couldn’t have asked for any more. The day was perfect - the food was absolutely delicious and the place was done up so beautifully for Christmas. I
