Castle Dargan Estate

From the first day we walked in to meet this lady Taylor the wedding coordinator we clicked nothing was to much trouble she is a amazing woman and very professional at her job. She was only a call or email away. We can't praise her enough for everything she has done for us and made out day the most stress free day ever. This lady is in our eyes the most professional lady and would recommend her to anyone and have.
Taylor thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Xxx
We will pop over again xxx

We had our ceremony and reception at Castle Dargan and from start to finish is was flawless. Taylor was absolutely amazing and made our day stress free and so relaxing. She knew all the good spots to take us to on the stunning grounds to capture amazing photos of our special day. Caroline was also so accommodating in organising rooms for our guests, she really made that bit so easy for us. The staff were so lovely, one lovely gentleman went above and beyond for my son who had a little wobbler before I walked up the aisle and gave him a pocket full of sweets which put a smile from ear to ear on his face. This made my big moment stress free, thank you again for that! The food was absolutely amazing we could not fault it and everyone really enjoyed it, the tayto sandwiches were a real hit to! The whole day was just fabulous. Thanks again to all the staff at Castle Dargan who made our special day so memorable, ye really out done yourself.

We recently held our wedding reception at Castle Dargan Estate & the venue completely exceeded our expectations. Taylor was our wedding co-ordinator & she was wonderful to deal with from day one - so warm, friendly, helpful & supportive - nothing was ever too much! She went above & beyond on the day making sure everything ran smoothly & she has incredible attention to detail - especially to all the little things most people would forget! 

The grounds of Castle Dargan itself are absolutely stunning for photographs & they video so beautifully with views of the golf course, green areas & the original house. The food is exceptional and all our guests commented on how wonderful the venue was from taking in the fabulous views in the sunshine to enjoying the vast amount of food available. 

We had an intimate wedding & one of the main reasons we picked Castle Dargan was because of the layout of the function room. We wanted all our guests to be together in the one space rather then drift off into different areas & it worked out perfectly for us on the day. A real hidden gem just a few minutes drive from Sligo town. The venue caters for all weddings big and small & we couldn't recommend the venue! 

Thanks again to Taylor & all the team at Castle Dargan

Avril & Barry

Our wedding was organized and assisted by the amazing Taylor in Castle Dargan. There were intricacies in that my husband and I were currently living in New Zealand but this was never an issue for Taylor! With the help of my father and liasing with Taylor over skype everything was organized as per our requirements. The day was perfection and we lucked out with the weather and even got out on a thrilling golf cart ride!
Dinner and decorations were great and the duty manager was good at ensuring all of our needs were met! All our guests agreed they had a lovely time and it was a wonderful venue.
If you are looking for a wedding venue, then go no further, it is truly picturesque but the attention they spend to ensure you have a seamless day is amazing. From meeting Taylor when I landed in Ireland, to dinner tastings over looking the golf course at sunset, and then then wedding day itself. It was perfect.

Taylor and her team at Castle Dargan Estate were amazing from start to finish. The attention to detail was second to none and they couldn’t do enough for us. All of our guests commented on the beautiful decor and scenery at the venue along with the professionalism of the staff. We had such an amazing day!

We had our reception in Castle Dargan last weekend and we had the BEST time from start to finish. Management were excellent to deal with and we really felt listened to. As with any event, there were a couple of hiccups both in the organising and on the day, but management were super attentive in every instance and these were resolved both as quickly as possible and in a way that best satisfied us. Our guests all had a fantastic time and the feedback has been great. We were all allowed to relax and fully enjoy ourselves so we couldn't ask for much more. Special mention to Zoltan, Nathan, Taylor and chef Sonu.

Castle Dargan made our whole wedding experience so personal and suited to our wants and desires from the beginning, Taylor has been outstanding in her attentiveness to all of our wishes through the whole process, the whole staff have been amazing on the run up and on the day and couldn?t do enough for us. Our guests were blown away by how beautiful the venue was and how good the food was. Taylor went above and beyond on the day to make sure we needed nothing and made everything run smoothly. The rooms were clean and warm and all of the wedding guests were accommodated to their every need, the house where the bridal party got ready and stayed was amazing and beautiful. We want to thank everyone at Castle Dargan for making us feel so special and helping us make our wedding so perfect.

We had our wedding reception in Castle Dargan at the start of Sep 2023. Myself , my now husband and our son had a lovely day. In the build up to the wedding day the hotel accomadated a wedding tasting at the weekend to suit our work schedules which we appreciated. Our wedding contract and plan was clearly laid out and the hotel were flexible with our food requests and dietary requests for our guests.
On the day of the wedding our reception looked beautiful, the food came out hot and promptly with good portion sizes and taste. We went with beef and salmon for our mains and really enjoyed. We got a lot of compliments on the food from our guests. The function room overlooking the golf course really is pretty. Throughout the planning stage we had regular contact from Caroline, Jessica and our wedding coordinator Taylor. The waiting staff were polite and friendly which we appreciated especially with a big wedding . Our room was really pretty we stayed the night after so we could chill out. The staff were helpful in heating up a bottle of milk for my toddler its the small little things which we appreciated. The staff helped my family set up the cake , took recpetion signs, family picture the day before and displayed them beautifully at the reception there was no stress in the lead up which means a lot. The hotel held our flowers and gifts in a safe and chilled room until we were ready to leave again allowing us to relax and enjoy. We didnt have the weather to fully make use of the lovely grounds for pics but again Irish weather out of anyones control. A big thank you for making our day special.

Castle Dargan Estate is an absolutely beautiful venue. We had our wedding here in August (both ceremony and reception) and it was such a fantastic and unforgettable day, it couldn't have went better. Our wedding coordinator Taylor was amazing! She kept in regular contact leading up to the wedding. Her attention to detail is great and everything on the day was exactly as we planned.
The food on the day was fantastic, fresh and piping hot. Zoltan took charge during the meal and everything ran like clockwork. He directed all the staff with such professionalism. Many of our guests commented on how good the food was and also how well it was all ran.
Thank you so much to all the staff for making our day so special. We would highly recommend Castle Dargan Estate!

We had our amazing wedding day at Castle Dargan on 4th August this year, our dream was for the outside ceremony but unfortunately the Irish weather didn?t hold out for us so we had to move inside. They were so accommodating for this and made the Coach House just as beautiful. Taylor was the most helpful wedding coordinator on the days and weeks before and on the wedding day. She was always there to help with any question or worry that I had, she couldn?t have done more. The day overall was so beautiful and all my guests can?t stop talking about how amazing the venue was - not to mention the food 10/10! Would definitely recommend to anyone getting married.

We had the most amazing day for our wedding thanks to Michelle and all the team at Castledargan. Michelle (wedding coordinator) was always a pleasure to deal with and was always at the end of the phone for any question or query and made everything run so smoothly on the day. All the staff could not have done more for us and our wedding guests. The food and service was just excellent. We really could not have asked for a better day. We would really recommend Castledargan as a fabulous wedding venue.

My husband and I wanted to say a big thank you to Michelle and all the team at Castle Dargan Hotel for helping make our Wedding the most amazing day for us. We want to do it all over again!

From start to finish the day was perfect, Michelle literally thought of everything and it made us feel completely at ease. All of our guests, especially those who have travelled and never been to Sligo before were impressed by the venue, scenery, friendliness of the staff and the food on the day of the wedding which was amazing!

Michelle you really know your stuff, and you were on hand whenever needed so thank you for that because we had nothing to be worried about really. Special thanks to Caroline for looking after us in the morning and getting my little girl flat 7up and pastry as she was poorly, those little touches are always remembered!


The guests were blown aware by the dinner service and the hospitality, the staff was so friendly and also funny at times, just what is needed at a Wedding!

My husband and I are looking forward to returning next year for our 1st anniversary :)

We had our wedding at the Castle Dargan and to say we had a great day is an understatement. The team went above and beyond to make our special day an excellent day. Their attention to detail was amazing and they made it such a wonderful experience. I couldn?t recommend it as a wedding venue enough. From the wedding planners, the receptionists, bar men, meal servers, cleaners etc?.the list goes on! They were all excellent and such a pleasure to deal with.

I just want to say a massive thank you to Rya and all the team at Castle Dargan for making our wedding day the best day ever. Everything was perfect from start to finish you went above and beyond for us there was nothing what was to much trouble. It was more then we ever even imagined it to be. The room set up was amazing we arr so thankfully for ye letting us bring our own few touches to and ye had that all set up for us without any hassle, the food was out of this world it really was lovely and the staff service was great there is nothing we could fault at all. You made booking with Castle Dargan so easy for us always on hand to help if we needed anything, you where there the day of our wedding along with the other lovely staff to make sure our day went perfect. We nominated ye for our vote for hotel of the year for connaught we really think ye deserve it. Thank you again for everything ye done we are truly grateful.

We loved Castle Dargan as a wedding venue from the moment we set eyes on it as we drove in. Then we met the staff and wedding team, Caroline Moran, Caroline Brennan, Michelle and Soltan and we were totally smitten with the venue. They were so warm, welcoming and so very helpful. Nothing was a problem. No question was a silly question. And all our questions, silly or not, were answered. Our wedding day was a fantastic, memorable day for us and all our guests thanks to Castle Dargan and all its wonderful staff. Knowing now the safe hands we were in having our wedding in Castle Dargan, we would do it all again in a heartbeat.
Helen & Alan White.

We had initially booked this hotel for our wedding. We cancelled due to lack of accommodation, which we had not been made aware of when we booked and lack of response from our wedding coordinator. We ended up loosing ?1500 just because we secured our date. We weren?t offered any of a refund or a gift voucher to use at the hotel. Highly disappointed. Would never recommend this place to anyone.

There were a number of price changes which were not communicated to us in an acceptable manner.
The service on the day of the wedding was sub standard. The meals were slow to be served and some tables were not given sides with their meals. The soup which was served was not the soup we agreed on.
There was an issue with the keg at the drinks reception, and we had to argue for it to be put right, rather than the hotel dealing with the matter themselves.
The wedding coordinator Caroline Brennan was as helpful as she could be, and we had no issues with her.
Would not recommend this hotel to any friends with it's current management.

From booking to the day of the wedding the team at Castle Dargan were so helpful and accommodating with all our requests. Caroline was always on hand to answer our questions and many of our guests thought she was a friend of ours as she was so feiendly and welcoming on our arrival to the hotel. On the day, the food and service was excellent and many of our guests commented on the delicious food and the professionalism of Zoltan and the staff. They anticipated our every need on the day from storing our bouquets to looking after gifts we had been given. We cannot fault our experience in Castle Dargan and would highly recommend them to anyone thinking about booking their wedding there.

We had our wedding reception in June 2022 in Castle Dargan and what a truly wonderful day it was. We can't thank all the staff in Castle Dargan enough for all they did for us in the lead up and on the day itself. Caroline, Michelle, Zoltan and Jessica to name just a few were absolutely fabulous to deal with no matter the question or problem they were there to reassure us and solve them, The function room looked amazing as did the drinks reception. Each and every member of staff went out of their way to help us and our guests. The food was amazing, the canapes were a big hit as was the Beef Fillet which was given thumbs up by even our fussiest of guests. The hotel itself and the grounds are spectacular, we were lucky that the rain dried up and allowed us to explore the golf course with our photographer using the Golf Carts which added another special twist to the day. Thank you again to everyone at the Castle Dargan for making our day so special for us

Castle Dargan was the perfect venue for our summer wedding. The grounds were beautiful for photos and the kids loved the onsite playground. Caroline, the wedding coordinator was amazing to deal with. She was on top of everything and made sure everything went like clockwork on the day. We were really impressed with the food and the service. All our guests were impressed with the venue with its relaxed atmosphere and beautiful surroundings. Would highly recommend.

The team could not of been more helpful. Very accommodating. Nothing was too much for the team. From the start of the process to the end of the wedding day the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful throughout. Venue itself was stunning.

We had our wedding in April 2022 in Castle Dargan. We can't thank all the staff in Castle Dargan enough for all they did for us, we had the most magical day. Caroline, Zoltan and Jessica were absolutely fabulous to deal with from start to finish! No request was too big or too small, Caroline's attention to detail is 12 out of 10! With all the emails and calls back and forth with ideas and edits and revisions she managed to make it all come to life on the day and didnt miss a thing! The food was absolutely beautiful, it was so difficult to choose at our menu tasting as everything was so delicious and Matt made the experience so enjoyable for us and offered great advice about our options! The tayto sandwiches went down an absolute treat at 2am too! They even organised gluten free bread and gluten free crisps for our coeliac guests!
The function room looked stunning as did the coach house for our drinks reception, and every single staff member couldn't have been more helpful on the day.
Jessica was brilliant to work with to sort out all accomodation, she kept us informed every step of the way and was able to facilitate all of our requests such as grouping certain guests in rooms close to eachother or giving some guests ground floor rooms etc.
Our day was extremely wet but Castle Dargan House made such a gorgeous backdrop for our indoor photos, the porch and stairs were stunning - it's great to have an option for lovely indoor photos when mother nature kicks in!
Thank you so much to Caroline and all the staff in Castle Dargan, we had our dream wedding day!

Honestly can?t even begin to explain how amazing our day was at Castle Dargan. We had to postpone twice due to covid so we dealt with both Tanya and Caroline and both were just absolutely amazing and so accommodating, so helpful (and patient!) with all my questions and a dream to deal with through all the stress. We arrived the night before with a lot of guests travelling from England and the hotel arranged for us all to eat together in the room off of the restaurant (at short notice too!) which was brilliant, got things going early. I brought in all the decorations I had and Zoltan got them safely stored for me and went through where and when everything needed to be put out. Myself and some of my bridal party stayed in an apartment the night before and my husband and some of his groomsmen did the same, we had a slight issue morning of the wedding with the boilers being off but literally within 5 minutes of calling reception they had maintenance over who sorted it straight away. We had the boardroom of Castle Dargan house for me and the bridesmaids/mums to get ready the morning of, Caroline came over several times to check how we were getting on, organise breakfast, mimosas, and sandwiches for us through the morning (8am hair and makeup start for 2pm wedding!), and finally to bring us over to the coach house for the ceremony, and then it really began! It was honestly just the best day we could have ever imagined, every single thing was taken care of and nothing was too much trouble - even right down to holding back some canap?s for us while we were off having photos taken during the drinks reception. Zoltan was fabulous on the day, he kept everything running smoothly & checked on us to make sure everything was good and we were happy. Nobody?s glasses were ever empty, the servers were amazing, as were the receptionists and bar staff. Caroline was an absolute angel, again so attentive, made sure absolutely everything was exactly how I?d pictured and that everything ran exactly how it was meant to. She is so lovely, I absolutely can?t fault her one bit. I?ll miss checking in with her every few months, we?d been planning it nearly 5 years! But genuinely was the most incredible day, the location was unbelievable with perfect views, all staff were so friendly and so helpful, and our guests were blown away with how romantic and relaxed the day was. I could not recommend Castle Dargan highly enough both for the venue itself and the staff involved in running the day. Thank you so so much, especially to Zoltan and Caroline, we wouldn?t have had the day we did without you guys, our day was like a dream. Can?t believe it?s all over after so long in the making, wish so much we could do it again! Thank you x

Having celebrated our wedding recently we have to say that staff could not have done enough for us. Caroline Brennan in particular was a real pleasure to have as our co-ordinator. We dealt with Caroline in the months leading up to our wedding day. She was always so lovely to deal with. She did absolutely everything in her power to ensure that we had a brilliant day. She is a truly wonderful, down to earth person who just wants the best for others and this clearly shines through in her work. On top of all this her proffesionilsm is top notch! We really cannot speak highly of her. Caroline herself could not be there on the day (totally understanding of this) and we were a little sad when we heard but this is genuinly testament to the hard work that she had put in. Caroline ensured that absolutly everything was in order for us on our day before handing us over to the well capable Michelle. Again, another wonderful person, very friendly and down to earth. Michelle was waiting for us on arrival with a wonderful smile and a very meaningful welcome on our big day.
We cannot speak highly of all staff in Castle Dargan. Everyone was so accommodating throughout our weekend. Staff even thought of little details that we probably wouldn't have thought about ourselves. We sat during our meal and watched as guests chatted and smiled throughout, they were clearly having a brilliant day. On chatting with guests after all had died down they were full of compliments for the food and the venue itself. It truly is a wonderful place made even more special by those who work there. Thank you so much to everyone who played a part in contributing to our day. We really did have the best time x

Fantastic team to deal with, efficient and professional. Every detail covered and no job was too big for staff!! Food and accommodation were excellent and our guests were very well looked after.

We booked Castle Dargan for our wedding on the 30th December 2021. We loved the setting and were excited to be able to have so many of our friends and family come together and stay there before and after the wedding. Caroline was our wedding coordinator and she was simply amazing. Nothing was too much bother, she went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. We cannot thank her enough. Zoltan and his team who managed the meal were outstanding, the food was delicious and all was timed perfectly. We cannot thank the whole team at Castle Dargan enough, they were professional, friendly and welcoming. We received so many compliments about the venue and the setting. Thank you for making our day so special.

We would highly recommend Castle Dargan to future couples. From the day we booked our wedding to the day of our wedding, we couldn't fault the service.
Considering we got married during the pandemic, any updated info and restrictions was explained to us thoroughly and Caroline always had the options thought out for us.
The service & food was delicious & our guests still remark on the meal. Staff were very helpful, friendly & kind.
Alot of our guests never actually heard or had been to Castle Dargan previously, they commented on the quality of service and the scenic location, many of them intending to return in the future.
We had the most memorable day in this hidden little gem with all our wishes and expectations fulfilled.
Thanks to all the staff of Castle Dargan & especially Caroline for making our wedding day truly fantastic & memorable.

Caroline and all the team in Castle Dargan were fantastic to deal with. They are so professional in everything that they do and made the planning and build up to our wedding so easy and stress free. The venue itself looked amazing on the day which made for some great photos.
The food was fantastic and the service by all of the staff was even better.
I cannot recommend this venue highly enough

We fell in love with Castle Dargan the minute we set eyes on it. The venue is beautiful, clean and welcoming. There was no other venue on our minds after seeing what they had to offer. The reception room is absolutely incredible! Our wedding took place in October last year after postponing twice. All of the staff we dealt with throughout all of these changes were incredibly sympathetic, helpful and professional despite it being a challenging time for them as well. Any concerns we had in relation to restrictions were listened to and addressed and we felt reassured that every effort would be made to help us have a great day. The day itself was fantastic, we could not have asked for more from all of the staff. The guests were raving about the food and wine and the venue itself. I would not hesitate for a second to recommend a wedding in Castle Dargan to any couple.

.

We had the most amazing day at our wedding on the 2nd of october 2021. From start to finish everything went perfect. The staff were all amazing and nothing was too much trouble. It made the day extra special. Thank you so much to Caroline, michelle and all the staff. Highly recommend.????

We had the most amazing day on the 17th of September 2021 in Castle Dargan and a lot of that is thanks to the fantastic team there. I cannot express our gratitude to the team for making it magical on the night before, the day itself and the day after. Caroline our coordinator on the day is a treat to work with as were Tanya and Yasmina who helped us in the run up. Caroline ensured our ceremony and the morning was nothing less than perfect. Another Caroline, who helped us with rooms is a star, always helpful and a pure pleasure. Zoltan our banqueting manager was incredibly on the ball and ensured everything was perfect, food was simply amazing and also Andrew on the night shift was a gent. There's many more people to thank and I could go on and on! Thank you to the entire team at Castle Dargan, we couldn't have had a better day!

We had the most amazing wedding experience at castle dargan. Yasmina the wedding coordinator although only started mere weeks before ensured we had the best day and bent over backwards to make sure we were happy. We honestly can't thank her enough. My family is still talking about all she did to help them on the day we were so lucky to have her help us . Caroline on accommodation was brilliant. Despite all my Constant emails about rooms she was ways so professional and nothing was too much of a job for her. Zoltan and matt and all the bar and restaurant staff we can't thank them enough. They put in so much work the night of the wedding and always with a smile on there faces

We recently had our wedding at Castle Dargan! What an amazing venue! It is such a beautiful place for a wedding and the grounds provided the perfect backdrop for our wedding photos. Tanya the wedding coordinator is fantastic and ensured we had a magical day despite all the COVID-19 restrictions. Zoltan looked after us on the night and he was such a big hit with the guests! All of the staff and management were just so helpful throughout our stay. The food and service was absolutely fab! Overall a perfect day and we couldn't have asked for more!
Thank you for everything!

Myself and Jonathan had our wedding reception at Castle Dargan Hotel on the 15th of July. From Tanya the wedding coordinator to the management team of Jibin and his team, we were treated like royalty. We were blown away by the hospitality we received from when my family arrived on Wednesday until we left on Friday. I would not hesitate to recommend this hotel for a wedding. The food and the service we received were excellent. All of our guests were delighted with all the food that we received. Thank you so much Castle Dargan for making our wedding day so special.
Thanks,
Grainne & Jonathan Davey

We got married in Castle Dargan on the 28th of December 2019. It was an unforgettable day/night and we would like to thank all the outstanding members of staff (reception, bar, waiters, waitresses, management) for the fantastic service you provided. To name just one tho, Tanya the wedding coordinator couldn?t do enough for us and made sure every little detail was taken care of. From the moment we booked to our menu tasting to the finer last minute details & finally to the big day everything was excellent. The food tasted fantastic, it was hot, there was loads on the plate and everything ran on time, which we loved & also our guests.Any extras we wanted was no problem. The room was dressed superbly. The surroundings of castle Dargan are breath taking. Our guests were very pleased with all aspects not to mind ourselves and for that we thank you. We can?t wait to go back and have a relaxing break. From the new Mr & Mrs Egan

On the 21st December 2019, we got married in Castle Dargan Hotel. From the moment we viewed the hotel and met their wedding coordinator Tanya, we knew it was the wedding venue for us.
The professionalism, friendless of all staff was outstanding. Our wedding day went so smoothly thanks to Tanya and their amazing staff.
Our wedding guests are still talking about the fabulous food and location of the hotel. If you are looking for an exceptional wedding venue, with welcoming, helpful staff and gorgeous food, this hotel is for you.
Thank you to all the staff of Castle Dargan, for making our wedding so memorable and organization of our big day stress free.

Castle Dargon is an amazing wedding venue. Tanya, Breege, Mary, Patrick & Jordan stood out as professionals who made the day so special. Nothing was too much trouble. We had a wonderful day. Thank you to all the staff.

The whole day went fabulous! A day I will never forget! Tanya was great and very helpful and Mary was great at helping me sort the rooms. It?s a fabulous location for any event especially weddings. Food was excellent. And there is great opportunities for photos.

Where to begin! Castle Dargan treat every bride and groom as if they are THE ONLY bride and groom. Quite simply, you're treated like royalty! The attention to detail, the professionalism, the responsiveness, the quality of food and wine and the service were absolutely superb.
I fell in love with the Ormsby room as soon as I walked in and saw the backdrop of the beautiful mountain range. All of our guests commented on never being in a room with a view, and were blown away by it. And almost 4 weeks later they are still talking about how gorgeous the food was! I am truly sorry that it's all over now but thank you very much to the entire Castle Dargan team who looked after Sean and I. You were such a huge part of making our day incredibly special.

Tanya the wedding coordinator and the staff in Castle Dargan exceeded all my expectations and made our wedding a dream to have in the beautiful Castle Dargan Resort.It is such a beautiful venue and grounds.The service was brilliant and can't fault anything!Would 100% recommend this venue to any couple looking for a dream wedding venue!We had our civil ceremony in the couch house and was so beautiful!There are so many locations on the grounds for photographs so we didn't need to leave at all which was fantastic!Thanks so much to Tayna and all the staff...Katie & Cathal Walsh x

We had an amazing day at Castle Dargan for our wedding. Tanya and all the team were fantastic and so accommodating from start to finish. Any request was catered to and many of our guests commented on the friendliness of the staff. We would highly recommend the venue and couldn't have been happier with our day. Thank you to Tanya and all the team for making our day so enjoyable!

Castle Dargan was just perfect for our reception. The team were brilliant and could not do enough to make our day special! Thank you!!

From the moment we went to meet Tanya, our wedding co-ordinator she could not do enough for us. Nothing was ever a problem. Any questions or queries we had whether it was by email or telephone was responded to almost immediately. Even a couple of emails that we would have sent Tanya was quick to pick up the phone to us and chat to make sure we were happy with everything!! Also we had a few guest who were coeliac and there was alternatives that they could have from scones etc at the reception when we arrived at hotel first right through to the sandwiches in the residence bar when the day/night was over. No request was ever a problem!! Mary in reservations was also so helpful. Any changing about on rooms Mary never made it a problem and worked it perfectly out to make sure all our guests were happy. Two days before our big day we went to hotel to drop off a few bits and met with Tanya when we went through the details one last time which Tanya had perfectly put together. Leaving the hotel that evening we had full faith that all was going to go smooth!!

We can honestly say our wedding day was amazing in Castle Dargan. The hospitality, staff, food and service was of top quality! So many of our guests commented on the hotel, the fantastic meal and accommodation. There was no delays at any stage which meant we got to enjoy the night of dancing to the full. We were delighted that our guests enjoyed the day just as much as we did!!

Could not recommend Tanya, Mary and all at Castle Dargan enough. They made our day the best we could ever have imagined for ????

Castle Dargan provided an absolute unforgettable day. Everything from the service, decorations, food was just outstanding. I could not fault the hotel at all. Tanya the wedding co-ordinator was just amazing from the very first dealings.
She had such a warm welcome personality. Thanks again for everything.

Tanya and the team at the Castle Dargan are exceptional. They were so helpful to us from start to finish. We had regular touch points with Tanya and this helped in having our room setup beautifully and they ensured that there was no stone unturned on the day. The customer service provided was excellent from start to finish and we were treated like royalty the night of our food tasting. The food was exceptional throughout the whole group of 220 people and the staff were phenomenal. Tanya was unable to be there on the day but the rest of the team were brilliant. People still talk about how good our wedding day was and the brilliant food and atmosphere. If you are looking for a beautiful, professional venue that is also reasonable then this is one of the best venues ever. The Castle Dargan will always hold a special place in our hearts due to the best day ever!

We found Castle Dargan great to deal with, in the run up to the wedding we really felt like everything was under control and would run smoothly on the day- which it did! The venue itself is just stunning and I also have to mention the food - it was so delicious,and the portions were huge- so many guests complimented it.Our wedding was a little different to most but nothing was too much trouble for Tanya & Mary, and we both genuinely had the best day! We would absolutely recommend Castle Dargan to other couples who want their big day to be really special.

We had the most amazing day at Castle Dargan for our wedding. We wouldn't change a single thing! All the staff were amazing. Tanya and Mary were brilliant in the run up to the wedding, always being very quick to reply to emails, calls or questions. Tanya just put us so completely at ease, its so clear that she knows exactly what shes doing it takes so much stress away because we just knew she would make sure everything was perfect and it really was. Colm also looked after us on the day and he was great too and a special mention for Sean, the night porter, he really went above and beyond for us. The ballroom is stunning, the views are amazing and there was the most beautiful sunset while we were finishing dinner, I'll never forget it. The food was amazing, we've had so many people say since that it was the best food they've ever had at a wedding. I would recommend Castle Dargan to anyone, you wont be disappointed. Thank you so much to everyone at Castle Dargan for making our wedding day so amazing!

I can not speak highly enough about Tanya and her professionalism and help to ensure our wedding went to plan. She thought of so many things to ensure the day all went to plan. We had all our guests travelling from Galway and England so they all needed to stay in the hotel before and after the wedding. Mary on front of house assisted with accommodation for all my guests and managed to ensure we all got sorted as it was alot of organising.
The food and wine were amazing and everybody commented on how fabulous it all was. Dont think twice about having your wedding here they were amazing!! We cant wait to go back to stay and many of our guests are coming back too.

We had our wedding reception in Castledargan on 4th August 2018 and honestly could not say one bad thing about it. We had viewed over ten venues before it and had not encountered the professionalism and flexibility that Castledargan certainly offered.

Our wedding coordinator, Tanya was excellent and made everything we wanted, happen. Nothing was a problem.


The ballroom was amazing with gorgeous views of the golf course and the food was incredible. We had the Atlantic timbale of seafood, goats cheese tartlet, Rack of lamb,duo of salmon and seabass and the medley of desserts as options and everything was cooked perfectly. Could not fault it.

We found the overall service outstanding woh Castle Dargan, from the planning through to the big day itself. From the planning, meal tasting, price, booking of rooms and coordination on the day. We were made feel so welcome, important and overall special on the most special day of our lives. All the staff were friendly and went above and beyond to help. The meal on the day was super and so was the service. I?d definitely recommend Castle Dargan for weddings or events.

We are so happy that we chose to celebrate our wedding day at Castle Dargan. The venue itself is stunning with so many beautiful photo opportunities. The Ormsby Suite is one of my favourite parts of the venue with beautiful views of the grounds.
All staff members we dealt with were more than helpful on the run up to the wedding and on the day itself, especially our Wedding Coordinator Tanya and Managers Mary and Colm.
The food and service on the day was 2nd to none and we couldn't have asked for more from the hotel.
We also continued our wedding celebrations with a second day in Castle Dargan with family and friends with a beautiful BBQ.
If you're looking for a hotel that's a little different from the rest then you've found it. I can't wait to go back to visit this special place.

We had a fantastic experience at Castle Dargan. Tanya was our wedding coordinator and she was such a lady. They did everything we asked and more.The food was lovely as was the service. Friendly staff welcomed us. It was the best day. Thank you

We got married Sunday 6th May 2018 in the fabulous Castledargan Hotel. Huge thanks to Tanya the wedding co-ordinator who is beyond professional, nothing was a problem from start to finish, she made us feel like king and Queen of the Castle. The setting is magical for a wedding and our guests so enjoyed the day and the place. Our thanks to Mario who looked after us throughout the meal and beyond and again his professionalism and attention to detail was amazing. Thank you all at Castledargan for a wonderful Wedding Day. Vanessa and Richard Ellis

We had a magical wedding day thanks to all the friendly and professional staff in Castle Dargan. The setting is beautiful and our photos will be treasured for a lifetime. All our guests commented on the fabulous food and that the portions were very generous, with seconds offered all around. I would highly recommend you consider this venue for your special day.

Hotel staff food everything was top class. Grounds unreal for pictures wouldn't or couldn't pick a better place thanks for a Savage day. Staff really worked hard and kept everyone happy

We fell in love with this hotel the first day we went to see it all done up for a weddinig. There was some confusion for a few months over the contact in the hotel as they were changing management, but ever since Tanya came in to manage the wedding side of things she was top notch. This lady knows how to make you feel relaxed and actually enjoy the process of organising a wedding. Anything we asked for she said yes! Her communication with us in the lead up to the wedding was outstanding! Seriously.. can not fault Tanya. Day of the wedding was the same.. made us feel so relaxed!
Everything about this hotel is sheer class, from the staff to the food, the scenery to the service. every little detail just fell into place for us and it was down to Tanya and her staff. the meal was fantastic and served really quick. We have had Family and friends tell us that our wedding was the best wedding they he ever been at and I know a lot of that is down to the hotel. I'll finish by saying the best thing about this hotel is that its secluded. Whoever is at the hotel that day is the people at your wedding and no one else really.. its brilliant! Thanks to Tanya and the staff at Castle Dargan for a day we will never forget.

Lorraine & Pauric

Fantastic wedding, highly recommended

We had our wedding in castle dargan 26th october 2017.The service was excellent from the first time we met clodagh and Siobhan.They could not do enough for us.The setting is beautiful and food was excellent!!Thanks so much for everything.

It's almost a two staged review for Castle Dargan. From my ratings, they absolutely delivered on some things, but others could probably use some work. Everyone we dealt with was really friendly, and we never had any issues or disagreements with people. There were some communication issues, in that some emails went unanswered, and a few hotel room bookings went missing. There was also some staff changeover, which lead to some of our earlier conversations not being handed on to the subsequent staff. Our tasting session perhaps wasn't the greatest, something I put down to catching them on a bad day. But they were minor issues from our point of view. What we really wanted for them to nail was the day itself, which they did.

The day itself was pretty much perfect. The food was wonderful, the service excellent, and whole room was setup spectacularly. We really couldn't have asked for more. Any issues that we did have during the tasting session were fixed, and they accommodated pretty much all our requests. All our guests commented on how good the food was, and how lovely they found the venue.

I would certainly recommend Castle Dargan as a venue.

I would recommend Castle Dargan to any couple. The staff were professional in every way. They made myself and my husband so at ease on our wedding day. Our guests loved Castle Dargan from the food to the scenery and staff were brilliant.

From the moment we pulled into Castle Dargan Resort in Sligo we knew it was the perfect place to have our Wedding. The setting is just amazing and the views are spectacular and thankfully we were blessed with a beautiful day to experience all it had to offer. Our wedding planner Kim Monaghan was fantastic and nothing was too much trouble and she took on board all our ideas and implemented them all to perfection. Everyone at the wedding complemented the excellent food and staff and we couldn't fault it one bit. The staff were very attentive and very professional and never pushy or rushed. The food was excellent and got so many compliments on the quality of the food. We tweaked our menu choices and this was never a problem with the hotel. The hotel offers a great all inclusive package and you really don't need to add to it whatsoever. I cannot wait to go back again and stay in Castle Dargan and it will always hold great memories for us.

Hi Kim,
I Just wanted to send you a quick email to say thank you so so much for Saturday! I don't know where I was dragged off to after I got out of the car but I never got talking to you after that!
It was amazing! We loved every second of it. The hotel looked fab all decorated, the food was amazing(everyone is still talking about it!) And, as usual, the service was second to none! One of my guests is a chef, has been for about 30years and he said he could not fault one thing. We were also told that having attended our wedding, it had restored some of our guests faith in weddings ????
We loved the way the top table was served so professionally for every course and the way the desserts were presented to us was brilliant! Donnacha ran up and down to the top table, I'm sure getting in the way some of the time and all the staff had nothing but smiles and praise for him.
I really could keep going for hours about every little thing that was amazing but I'm sure you know all of that!! A lot of our guests had not been to the hotel before and have said they will definitely be returning. Everybody, at one stage or another, commented on the staff, the reception, the waiters/waitresses bar staff etc. on what great attention they got and how friendly they all were.
Ok, I will actually stop now ???? But thank you so much again, you were a great help to a couple who were completely clueless!!
Anyway, I'm off back to our honeymoon in the sun!!
Thanks again,
Grainne & Charlie Xxx

I dont know where to start. You were all so amazing with everything. I have never seen such presion and attention to detail. The whole place was so well organised and we just felt so spoilt.
The serving staff were soon point that i was thinking that you do some army style drill sessions, no hanging around and nothing missing. In addition allthe guests couldn't get over the quality of the meals and they kept saying it was probably the best wedding meal they have ever had. The stakes were amazing and i dont know how the chef managed to cook them just perfect. For sure thete was no shortage of food as well.
Aidan loved his birthday surprise and the names on the plates was a brilliant touch.
We were so happy that both of us nearly cried except that would have messed up my make up so no go.
Thank you again and cant wait to come back for an anniversary dinner and spa night.
All the best from the new Mr and Mrs Duggan i.e. Aidan and Kati.

We stayed here for two nights while attending a family wedding recently. It really is a beautiful place, extremely relaxing. We did not avail of the spa treatments during our stay, however other guests attending the wedding did and said they were excellent. We did play golf on one of the days, a nice course with some challenging holes. The grounds of the hotel are also very nice and there is a nice walk down to the castle, although not very long.

The staff were extremely professional throughout our stay and no request was too small. The beds were by far the most comfortable I have ever slept in for any hotel. The rooms were modern, clean and well maintained. We ate in the hotel on both nights, including the wedding, and the food was very good.

You will need a car if staying here. There is not much around the hotel other than the village of Ballygawley, which has a shop if stuck for anything. It is about a ten minute walk from the hotel. Sligo town is a short drive and a nice day out.

All in all a nice weekend, helped by the unusually warm October weather. Would definitely stay here again.

Only negative for me was there was no swimming pool. For the size of the place and the available grounds, I think a pool would be a great addition.

We had our wedding here on the 18/09/2015. We had been to a weeding here a few years ago and feel in love the grounds and layout of hotel. After meeting with Kim we booked our weeding (at a great rate) we never looked back! Nothing we asked for was a problem for any member of staff. All our family and friends were blown away with how good the food was how helpful the staff were and comfortable the rooms were. I cannot thank everyone at Castle Dargan Resort enough for making it so easy for us to enjoy our wedding day knowing we and our guests were well looked after. So if you are getting married and want a beautiful location with amazing service and food look no further!!! Thanks again to Kim and all the staff.
Shane and Nuala

We chose Castle Dargan resort for our wedding after viewing lots of hotels. The minute we drove up and went inside we loved the welcoming feeling and the combination of old & new decor. We sat down with Kim and we knew we had to have our wedding there! Kim and in fact the whole team at Castle Dargan are amazing. There is nothing they couldn't do for us. Kim is professional, accommodating, friendly and knows her job really well! We even asked for a certain beer to be brought in to suit some of our guests and it wasn't a problem!
The meal was amazing. We opted for the supplement on the beef and it was so worth it. People are still talking about the food! The service during the meal was fantastic. So many experience staff.
We have to say a special thanks to Kieran who kept the bar staff serving well into the early hours and looked after us the next day during our BBQ
Matthew was also fantastic to us during our weekend. Again, friendly, welcoming and professional!

If you are thinking of having your wedding there- book it now! You won't be disappointed. You will get a beautiful hotel with the best food and amazing staff- what more could u want the day of your wedding!
It's one less worry on your wedding day and everyone deserves the best that day :)

We held our wedding ceremony and reception in Castle Dargan on Friday 7 August 2015. Castle Dargan was the first (and only!) wedding venue we looked at. From the moment we met with Kim we were sure that Castle Dargan was the wedding venue for us. The relaxed and welcoming atmosphere was what we loved the most.

Kim and the rest of the team at Castle Dargan were eager to help with every aspect of our day. As we are from Tyrone in the North and travelling quite a distance, we decided to make a weekend out of the celebrations and we stayed in the hotel for 3 days ? Thursday to Sunday. Many of our guests did the same. The reservation staff, Chrissie and Amanda sorted all the room bookings for us and the entire process was flawless. The girls were so easy and professional to deal with.

The day itself was perfect from start to finish. The ?Ladies? stayed in one of the self-catering apartments overlooking the car-park whilst the ?Gents? were in a Lodge at the bottom of the avenue. The hairdressers from Salon 2 came out to the apartments on the morning of the wedding as did the girls from Icon Spa in the hotel to do our make-up. This meant that the bridal party didn?t have to leave the hotel that morning at all. The breakfasts for the Bridal party were delivered to the apartment and the staff were on hand to bring flowers and d?cor over to the hotel itself. The best thing about staying in the hotel the night before the wedding was that both the Bride and Groom could see all the guests arriving that morning. Not many Brides get to see this part of the day!

The Ceremony was in the Coach House Lounge and it was decorated so beautifully and elegantly with black and gold chair covers. The champagne reception after was in the Courtyard and the atmosphere was fantastic. The wedding party took the golf buggies out onto the golf course for photos and they have turned out so well. We couldn?t be happier.
The wedding meal is without a doubt the best we have ever had (bias I know, but very true). The service was second to none and every course was served fresh and steaming hot. Christina, Imelda and the team done such a good job. Our guests are still talking about how good the roast beef and lamb was.

Our entire weekend was fabulous ? we partied the whole time. The very lovely Christina babysat the kids on the night of the wedding and again the night after. The kids loved her and she put the parent?s minds at ease. Such a brilliant service by a brilliant girl!

I would highly recommend Castle Dargan to anyone as a wedding venue. You won?t be disappointed. The staff are Castle Dargan?s best asset and should be commended for their approach and efforts.

Thank you to everyone at Castle Dargan and well done to you all!!
We will see you all very soon. From R?is?n and Raymond x

An amazing hotel with amazing staff. Great value for the service and experience we received.
Staff could not be more helpful and attentive in particular Kim the wedding coordinator, Matt the bar and restaurant manager and Chrissie the reception manager.
All our guests commented on their attention to detail the hotel friendliness and helpfulness and it was all we could have asked for our special day.
The amazing grounds and hotel itself makes it a magical place for a wedding!

Wow... We had our wedding at this amazing venue may 2015.. It was superb on every level.

I would recommend this hotel to absoulety everyone!

We originally met kim, the wedding coordinator 14 months before our wedding date, and she was an instant Ray of sunshine, she is professional, hepful, made us feel completely at ease... Especially as we live in England ...nothing was too much trouble, and any question at all kim was straight back to us on email within the hour!.. Just incredible, we felt like the service was so personalised and we were made to feel so special. Something we never felt in any other hotel as we were looking around. Kim is most definitely a credit to the hotel!

We carried on, had our menu tasting night there which was so beautiful, we will never forget it, the quality and amount of food was absolutely amazing... Something which carried onto the day.... The value for money...and quality was impeccible!! Our guests were stunned with the quality, everything was so tasty and plenty of food,.,, the staff even went round with seconds for our main course meats.!!

Matthew looked after us so well throughout the meal, the attention to detail and quality of service was second to none... Lots of special touches that added to the day, we noted Matthew had his eye on the room, guests, timing everything was impeccible! ... The waiting staff are all unbelievably friendly....happy to help... We ran over a little late with the day... But nothing was a problem to this team!!

The day was perfect, staff and venue, holds a special place now for me and my now husband... Cannot sing highly enough of this place!

I found the entire team brilliant. Every thing ran so smoothly on the day. Kim and imelda were great for answering questions, returning emails prior to tge big day. What a great day

Kim and all the staff at Castle Dargan ? Thank you so much for al you did for us, you made everything so easy and stress free. We had an unbelievable day and if we were to do it all again it would be in Castle Dargan 100 times out of 100. ? Julianne and Derick

Castle Dargan is an absolutely amazing venue. Kim and the team made the planning process and the day itself flow so smoothly and were fabulous to deal with. Chrissie took all the stress out of the accommodation booking process with her organisation, flexibility and availibility. Matthew was wonderful on the day, guiding us through it in the most friendly, calm manner. Stephen made our menu tasting so enjoyable. Kim helped us from day 1 - which was almost 17 months before the wedding date. She answered all my questions and was professional yet so lovely throughout. On the day we were welcomed in such a lovely manner. All the little personal details that we wanted to include were made to feature beautifully. The food was superb, the accommodation was fabulous and the day was one i'll never forget. I couldn't recommend this venue more highly.

I can't speak highly enough of Castle Dargan as a wedding venue. Beautiful venue, delicious food and all the staff are very friendly and went out of their way to make our day so perfect!

We had our wedding here on Nov. 21st, 2014. From the moment planning began to the moment the last guest headed happily to bed, the staff were very helpful and all around amazing. Kim, Vinessa, and Chrissie were always on the ball and receptive to last-minute changes. We chose to have our ceremony in their beautifully appointed converted stable hall and it was so cosy and intimate and quite dramatic as dusk approached. The dining room was elegant, the food was great, and the bar late! Superb venue?it lives up to its reputation. Thanks very much to Castle Dargan for an unforgettable time.

- Phil and Daragh

We can't thank you enough for all your help in making our wedding day so special. You made organising our day from another country an easy and stress free experience and you completely understood everything we had in mind which made us completely at ease.

We could not be happier with how everything went and we have you to thank for that. It was amazing. Best Wished - We'll be back! Samantha and Andrew Barraclough

We would like to thank you for all of your help and hard work ensuring we had the perfect wedding day! Everyone had an amazing day, the food was lovely & the staff were really helpful. Thanks again and we would highly recommend Castle Dargan to have a wedding.

We had our wedding reception in Castle Dargan in April. We couldnt recommend it enough! Kim was always available to answer any questions and help with our planning. Everyone who came to the wedding commented on how well the day went and that the staff were so nice and accomodating. The food was amazing as was the service. We had a wonderful day and it all went so smoothly thanks to the staff at Castle Dargan.

Dear Kim,

Thank you Kim for all the hard work you put into our special day and helping us to make it a success. A big thank you to all the staff ? reception, kitchen, hotel staff, the lot, for making the day run so smoothly. We really appreciate all you did. The cake and sweet tables looked perfect.

Dear Kim, Matthew and all the staff at Castle Dargan,
From the bottom of our hearts thank you all so very much for helping us to organise our wedding & ensuring we and our guests had an amazing day,
Thanks again,
Fiona and Dara

We were most at ease upon our first meeting with Kim in Castle Dargan, and knew that we were dealing with a polite , enthusiastic young professional. Everything we requested , was catered for without question, even the odd ones like getting the groom +friends out for a round of golf the morning of the wedding+buggies for the location shots! There were also added extras given to us which made those little touches speak volumes. The hotel looked fabulous and Kim is a great asset to a great venue.


Yours in Marriage,

Our Wedding day on the 31st August 2012 was such a special, intimate day., The venue is set in the beautiful surroundings of the Sligo countryside with the dramatic backdrop of a perfectly manicured championship golf course. Ann + I met playing golf and we had been looking at various locations, Castle Dargan could provide the perfect setting and we could also get married in the most romantic Coach House room with its high ceiling and perfect lighting. Such a relaxing , beautiful resort.
