What people are saying!

Average Rating: 5 out of 5 - based on 4 reviews

First of all, thank you to all staff in Killeen Castle for making every visit and every moment of the wedding preparation and wedding itself amazing.

We loved the venue from the first moment and we'll always treasure it in our hearts. The day was perfect (luckily sunny) and all our guests and …

family couldn't stop taking pictures because it was so beautiful. On the wedding itself, the menu was simply wonderful and exactly as it was during the food tasting. The staff made sure through out the day that everything was going according to the plan and it allowed us to really focus on our family and guests.

And last, but not least, the rooms. The bathrooms were unsually large compared to other locations, which we loved, and the lodge were amazing to accomodate our families and friends. It was also great to use one of the lodges common area for the bridal party makeup and hair preparations, with a lot of natural light.

Thank you again for everything.

We recently had our wedding at Killeen Castle, and it was truly the most beautiful experience we could have imagined. The staff was exceptional, ensuring that every detail was taken care of with care and professionalism. They went above and beyond to accommodate our family and friends, hosting us …

for multiple events over the course of our stay, which made the entire celebration feel effortless. We came from the United States, and we left Killeen Castle feeling like family with the staff.

The accommodations were top-notch—comfortable and luxurious. And the food was exceptional, by far the best we’ve had at any wedding. Our guests are still talking about how delicious everything was.

Killeen Castle provided a stunning and elegant backdrop for our special day and the warmth and dedication of the team made it unforgettable. The grounds are breathtaking and I highly recommend a wedding or any celebration at Killeen Castle. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to celebrate, and we are so grateful for the memories we created there.

We could not recommend Killeen Castle enough. We had the most amazing day.

The staff, particularly Amanda the wedding coordinator went above and beyond to make everything perfect for our big day. All of our guests loved the food and were blown away by the Castle and surroundings.

There is …

not one negative thing I could say about our experience. From the minute we started our enquiry until the big day we felt so at ease knowing we had made the right choice for our wedding venue.

The wedding venue of dreams! Killeen Castle is absolutely stunning and the staff is incredible. My now husband and I were living and planning our wedding from NYC… Ruth made planning overseas such a breeze. They were extremely accommodating of our ridiculous requests and cannot believe how …

smoothly the whole day went.
The lodges are lush and the way they are set up was just perfect for our wedding party to get ready in. My makeup artist loved all the natural light we had!!
We decided to choose the walled gardens for our ceremony and had the reception in the clubhouse. The castle itself is still undergoing renovations but we were still able to get some gorgeous photos in front of it.
The food was absolutely fabulous and our guests were blown away by the views.
We feel so fortunate that we were able to book this place and host such a magical event.
We are already planning our next stay.
