Ashley Park House

The best Wedding Venue in Ireland! From the Staff to the food and as for the location it’s just all superb! Highly Recommend!!!

Aside from being a stunning venue, all staff and personnel are friendly and helpful! Planning a wedding from NY was not easy, but APH made it easier and made it come together. I have recommended this venue to anyone getting married! Was so pleased and wish I could do it all again! Thank you!!

We loved our wedding at APH. The scenery is stunning and everything ran so smoothly. And all the staff were absolutely amazing.

Our wedding 7th October 2021
What an outstanding venue for a wedding. We celebrated our big day last week and it couldn't have been any better. Margaret and her team were exceptional in the run up to the day with easy planning and even topped that on the day. The food was excellent, too. The feedback we got from our guests was throughout positive, people loved their rooms, the party, the dinner, the breakfast, everything that was provided by Ashley Park House. I honestly couldn't speak high enough of the venue and recommend it to anyone who wants to ensure a great party with all guests being happy! It was the best day ever!! Thanks again to the team at APH ??????

We had our wedding on the 23rd of august 2021 in ashley park house.. i contacted margaret who is the owner to view the house last year after i had got engaged the moment we entered the drive i said this is the place we are going to get married without even seening the house and marquee where the wedding takes place! Margaret was so nice upon meeting her so helpful and nothing was too much too ask all the staff went above and beyond and i can't thank them enough esp in these tough times! We got married in the boat house which was amazing we were orignally getting married in a church but once i saw the boathouse onsite we changed our minds and it was so stunning we would not even have to move from the site which was another bonus as the grounds are stunning! The food was amazing we didnt even do a tasting due to covid i wasnt worried as i had heard from word of mouth the food was beautiful and it was amazing! The accomodation onsite was beautiful and the surrounding gardens and lake breath-taking views!! We had the most amazing two day stay from the wedding day to the bbq everything was perfect we couldnt of asked for better i highly recommend ashley park house and i cant thank margaret and the staff enough

There are no words to describe how wonderful Ashley Park House is. Due to new restrictions we had to change our wedding venue 4 days before our wedding and we are so happy we did!! Margaret Jaka and all the staff were so welcoming, calm, helpful and kind to us. The setting itself is stunning but what really makes this venue is the people! Covid has been a hard time for everyone and Brides and Grooms are so worried 'what would a Covid wedding look like'. After having our day, I honestly wouldn't have had it anywhere else or any different! Its was intimate and fun and Ashley Park House made this for us. No request was too silly or not possible! We had all our guests and suppliers take an antigen test from Covisal at our wedding and Ashley Park Staff were no different. This gave everyone an extra layer of comfort for the day and we are so grateful Ashley Park were so accommodating with this!

We had the time of our lives and would highly recommend this venue to everyone!! :)

P.S Any Covid Couples, don't worry, take the leap and you will have the best day ever. Just make sure your venue are as helpful as Ashley Park :)

I have never reviewed a wedding before now and I have attended many, but after attending my cousin’s wedding at Ashley Park House in February this year I had to put pen to paper. The venue was spectacular, the views of the lake absolutely breathtaking. The house and marquee were stunning, and the food was of a very high standard. The staff was so professional and the bride and groom looked relaxed and radiant all day, there seemed to be no stress whatsover. My cousin told me that the team there took care of everything, they organized a local hair and make-up person, a florist, and a humanist as my cousin had travelled over from Scotland and didn’t have the contacts locally. I have been at quite a few weddings, and have enjoyed many, but there really was something very special about this venue.I have two daughters and if/when the time comes for booking a wedding I will be highly recommending Ashley Park. It was a stunning unforgettable day, well done to all involved.

We were delighted that we chose to have our wedding at Ashley Park House. Everything was amazing. Our guests absolutely raved about the venue and food. Highlights for me were definitely the setting on the lake and we were blessed with a beautiful September day. Food was amazing. Staff were attentive. Everything ran so smoothly. I honestly can’t think of anything that I would change and I’m looking forward to returning to visit the venue again the next time that I am in Ireland.

A huge thank you to everyone at Ashley Park House!

Ashley Park was the most wonderful setting for our wedding four weeks ago. We cannot praise the staff and the venue enough. Margaret, Colleen and Lucy were just awesome to deal with, so much so that once we had finalised our date- we had to do very little, they took care of everything. The day itself could not have gone better, we didn't have to worry about a thing all night. We chose the regular package and the staff were brilliant- no one ever had an empty glass, whilst guests keep praising the food that was served.
The bridal suite is beautiful and the rooms in the house are huge period bedrooms. The guestrooms in the courtyard are modern, and so comfortable with unserfloor heating. Our photographer was able to catch brilliant shots all around the property.

From our first visit to Ashley Park House we knew it was the place where we would get married, it offered everything we were looking for - beautiful scenery, amazing food, exclusive use of the venue and stunning spaces for our wedding and reception with space for all of our guests. When we first viewed the ceremony space, it was little more than foundations in the ground but the view was enough for us to decide that was where we would have our ceremony!
Living abroad we weren’t able to go to the venue whenever we needed so we relied on a lot of emails and phone calls with the venue. At times this was stressful but you have to put your trust in your chosen suppliers and it was perfect on the day. The business and venue were expanding as we planned and the team has since grown to match!
All of our guests are still raving about the food and hospitality they received over our wedding weekend. We were able to take over the venue from Saturday to Monday and throw the biggest party of our lives!
Our wedding surpassed our wildest dreams, we’ll look back in years to come and remember what an amazing time we had at Ashley Park House - we look forward to returning to stay for a more understated weekend!

Beautiful and unique venue, fabulous food & wine and plenty of it. Staff very friendly. Margaret and her team were very friendly and accommodating, nothing was a problem. Our guests loved the place. I would highly recommend!

We stumbled upon Ashley Park after traveling the length and breadth of the country looking for the perfect place for our special day. We entered the gate not knowing what to expect and were met with a long avenue enclosed by trees that opened out to the most idyllic setting with Ashley Park House perched on the side of a magnificent lake. As we got closer we noticed the fixed marquee with full glass side looking onto the lake. We were greeted by a cheerful Margaret MacKenzie, the lady of the house who showed us around the house, the adjoining marquee and breath-taking gardens. We were immediately enthralled with the place and its wonderful charm and the sheer enthusiasm of Margaret and her love of the place. After speaking with Margaret it became clear that the place meant a lot to her, and it was clear she had immersed herself in the house to develop it to it’s current splendour and it was clear that this would be ongoing fruit of hard labour with bigger and brighter things to come. Margaret’s pitch was all related to the quality of food and friendly service and she did not disappoint.

Our wedding took place on a sunny Saturday in July with the theme of the day being ‘jaysus ye are blessed with the weather’. This allowed us to take full advantage of Ashley Park’s wonderful natural features centred on the lake. Our guests were treated to wonderful lake views while sampling a mixture of traditional and imaginative canapés. It was a very chilled out atmosphere and we had ample time to soak it all in.

We then moved to the marquee for the main meal and wedding formalities. It’s worth noting that the marquee itself is absolutely beautiful and decorated very tastefully with no need for any extra decoration. The centre-pieces were lovely fresh flowers and added to the classic feel of the venue. And then there was the food, we went with a choice of starter between salmon and duck salad of which I sampled both. They were delicious and the soup that followed was top class also. Our mains were a choice of beef and sea bass, both of which received rave reviews! And then of course there was the dessert, a choice of Lemon tart or pear and almond tart which were both exquisite. It is a testament to the quality of the food that six months later we are still receiving compliments from friends and family and we are delighted with this.

The venue was ideal for the evening part of our wedding, the younger crowd were free to run wild on the dance floor while the more reserved guests could kick back in the snug or even huddle around the fires outside and enjoy the

Ashley park for us is a hidden gem that is constantly building as the weeks and months go on, we noticed significant progress running up to our wedding, particularly in relation to the accommodation. We couldn’t have been happier with our choice of wedding venue. Our friends, like ourselves are of that age where they are accustomed to the ‘wedding circuit’ and the verdict was unanimous; Ashley park is a top class venue and is something a bit different.

We held our wedding in August this year at Ashley Park House and, from beginning to end, our experience with Margaret & her team was fantastic.

We will always remember our wedding weekend as being truly magical. The setting is enchanting; from the minute you turn into the the driveway, to the house itself, the gardens, gate lodges and the lake.

We chose to have an outdoor ceremony to make the most of the beautiful natural surroundings and Margaret & her team pulled out all the stops to make sure the sprinkling of rain didn't detract from our plans. Many of our guests commented on the beautiful setting overlooking the lake & the sun even made an appearance just in time!

The pavilion overlooking the lake provided a really unique setting for our wedding dinner. Margaret has thought of all the little details from the entrance area to the chairs through to the chequered dance floor & wonderful planting inside & out. High draped ceilings, chandeliers & a glass wall looking out on to the lake finish off this stunning space. This was the setting for fantastic food, timely & excellent service, followed by late night dancing & general revelry until the wee hours.

We could not have asked for more from Margaret & her team. They were attentive, personable & accommodating in every way from the moment we first viewed the venue.

We feel that we found a true hidden gem and have no doubt that Ashley Park House is going to be a hugely popular wedding venue in the years to come. While part of us would love it to remain a hidden gem forever, it's simply too good not to share.

We had an absolutely wonderful day.
The organisation was smooth and efficient and all our wishes were met. Margaret and the team organised almost everything, which left very little for us to do which was particularly great for us as we live in the UK.
The day itself went really smooth. Everything was perfect. Margaret and her team were just wonderful. Ashley park is such a beautiful venue and everyone enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere. Our guests really enjoyed the day. They loved the venue, the food and the event itself.
The food was absolutely delicious. There was a good variety available for when we choose the menu. On the day itself it exceeded our expectations and you could tell that the produce was of very high quality and was very well cooked. We had a lot of really good feedback from our guest regarding the food.
Overall it was a wonderful day and we are very glad we choose Ashley Park for our special day.
