Castle Dargan Estate

Taylor and the team at Castle Dargan were incredible. From the planning right through to the wedding day itself they couldn't have been more helpful. We had our ceremony and reception at the hotel which is a great venue for socializing with guests and the grounds are wonderful for photographs. We couldn't recommend Castle Dargan enough.

We had our wedding in this hotel last month (August 2024). The service was amazing the staff was so friendly the coordinator Taylor was incredible with all the planning and organising of our big day. Taylor went above and beyond for us on our special day. The food tasted amazing. Thank you Taylor for everything.

On behalf of myself and my husband, we would like to say a massive thank you to all at Castle Dargan for making our wedding day so wonderful. It was without a doubt the best day from start to finish. Thank you especially to Taylor for all you have done for us, your professionalism did not go unnoticed, you put your heart and soul into what you do, and it really shows in your work and how special our day was. A special thanks to Caroline you really do keep the front of house running smoothly. Ibra for making sure all guests had a drink in hand and Abi for looking after us at the top table so well. If we were to do it all over again, which we would in a heartbeat, we would 100% come back to Castle Dargan.

On the 5th of July 2024 was one of the most memorable days for me and my now husband, we travelled from Australia to get married in my home village continuing the celebration at our selected venue Castle Dargan. As you can expect it is difficult planning a wedding but planning a wedding from Australia was a different kind of challenge but thankfully with the help and constant communication from the Wedding corrordinater Taylor she made me at ease throughout and helped me with any concern I had for our big day.
The day went off without a hitch. We unfortunately couldn't get our pictures taken at the castle ruins due to the rain but as soon as we arrived they had the red carpet rolled out and ready for our early arrival, we mingled with our guests and noticed there was never a point anyone didn't have a drink in hand, the staff very attentive.
Once dinner arrived we noticed how well all the tables where being served and all our guests raved over how good the food was, hot on arrival, and well potioned.
Our day was everything we hoped for thanks to Taylor and all the staff at Castle Dargan for making it memorable.

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 had our wedding here in May 2024 on a Friday. From the bridal party staying the night before in the manor house, to getting ready in the morning then to the drinks reception and dinner, Castle Dargan provided a splendid service. We we're especially delighted with how well our dinner service went, the food was amazing and everything ran on time. We got high praise after from all our guests about the food. We would like to give a special shout out to Taylor, Castle Dargan's wedding planner. She was absolutely amazing on the day, she kept everything running smoothly and anything I asked from her or some unexpected last minute changes in plans, Taylor was on it. No job was too much, she handled everything with a smile and got things done in an efficient and professional manner. I could not recommend her enough. We also all got on very well with her and found her a joy to work with throughout our wedding journey. The venue has about 24 rooms, we had 115 guests and I felt that this was a nice number for the venue.

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.

We had such an amazing wedding day at Castle Dargan. We can’t fault them on anything. Taylor our wedding coordinator was so helpful with everything and very responsive to emails and calls. No request was too much trouble. The food was lovely and the food service was great, kept all our guests happy and relaxed. Everything went off without a hitch. It’s a lovely venue and the honey moon suite was gorgeous.

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.

Overall I would recommend the Castle Dargan as a wedding venue. Taylor, the wedding coordinator, was always very helpful and organised in the lead up to our big day

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.

We had our wedding at Castle Dargan in August, I can't describe in words how stunning and beautiful Castle Dargan and its grounds are, I felt like we were in a fairytale! Taylor our wedding coordinator was so amazing and so professional, she helped with anything we needed and answered our so many questions day and night. On the day of our wedding I got a glass of red wine spilled on my dress and Taylor sat on the floor and scrubbed my dress untill it was sparkly white again (I don't even know how she did it) but without her I don't know what I would have done that day! All the staff were amazing, the food was the nicest food I've ever had and every single guest complimented it. I can't recommend Castle Dargan and Taylor enough, very relaxed day thanks to them all.

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.

Castle dargan was a joy to work with on the day of our wedding, and we were made feel so at ease by Taylor and Caroline. Food was amazing, service at the meal was timely and so professional. We are so happy we picked CD as our 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 :)

From our first initial viewing to booking and all the months and weeks lead up to our big day, the staff and management of Castle Dargan were absolutely delightful to work with.. Every communication made to and fro you were always made feel so special. It felt like we were getting married everyday for 18 months.. especially from wedding coordinator Michelle.. She is a dream to work with.. On the day of our wedding there was no stone left unturned.. we felt like Royalty.. the service, accommodation and the entire venue is stunning and superb.. we highly highly recommend checking it out if your planning to get married.. Thank you Castle Dargan for making our day so amazing.. We had the best day of our lives..

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.

Caroline was just amazing from Start to finish and nothing was too much trouble! Our day was Magic!

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.

Caroline was brilliant throughout the whole process of planning our wedding. From start to finish Castle Dargan met everyone of our request without hesitation. We enjoyed every single second of our wedding and just wish we could do it all again. The food was just gorgeous, everyone said it was so tasty.
The decor of the room was just perfect, it was like walking into a fairy tale. We had the best day at our wedding in on the 16Jul2022. Thanks again to Caroline and the rest of the team in Castle Dargan
Lorraine and Shaun

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.

Caroline, Michelle, Jessica and the team were just amazing, we decided last minute to get married only a few months later and they just helped us every step of the way.

The process was simple and they informed us of everything we needed to do or should think about. Every query or question was answered straight away and they were amazing to us.

The location, and food were gorgeous. Everyone at out wedding was commenting how good it was.

Zoltan, the M&E staff, to the bar staff were absolutely amazing. Cannot recommend Castle Dargan enough.

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.

Caroline and all the wonderful staff at Castle Dargan were a pleasure to deal with from day one.
We had the most wonderful time and really enjoyed every part of the few days we spent in the hotel.
Everyone who we encountered over the few days were extremely accommodating! I'm sorry I don't remember everyone's name to thank individually but each and everyone of the staff helped with whatever was required and nothing was a problem!

The morning of the wedding it was very wet and windy, I was naturally very disappointed as we were hoping to have the wedding outside however, come 1pm the day was beginning to look good. When I suggested that we should move everything outside 50 minutes before the ceremony was due to begin, while there were a few raised eyebrows (my parents included!!) the hotel staff came together to make it happen. We were extremely grateful for this.

Thank you again for the most memorable day Castle Dargan, fab service, food and an extremely friendly manner from all staff - it meant so much to us.

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!

5star wedding venue.
We had the most spectacular day from start to finish. We had most of our dealings with Caroline the wedding Co-Ordinator in Castle Dargan. She was an absolute pleasure to deal with, she should be nominated for best wedding coordinator of the year. Nothing was trouble she really worked with us on every aspect of our wedding. We had made our wedding quite personalised and everything on the day was displayed excatly as we wanted. All of the staff were amazing especially Jessica who was efficient and effective with planning and organising our accomadation. Thr only downfall there is limted rooms but taxis are available. Zoltan looked after our meal, the meal was fantastic food was delicious and he is really good at his job. All the waitresses and waiters on the day were fabulous, some minor delay with food service but the quality of food was suberb. We probably got the best day weather wise and views were spectacular. If you want beautiful grounds and an initamite wedding with friends and family this is your place. You are made feel so special.

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

We wouldn't change a single thing about our wedding. The staff at the Castle Dargan made the entire experience so enjoyable. A special mention to Caroline on reception, and Caroline our wedding co ordinator. And also to Zolton who was amazing for the entire weekend. We are so happy with everything.

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.

A venue I would highly recommend. Caroline is very reassuring which is needed trying to organise a wedding during a pandemic. Very professional, anything we asked for was absolutely know problem. Food was out of this world as was the service. When we had to postpone last year they were very accomodating in everyway. They make you feel so relaxed that all you can do is enjoy your day. The grounds are exceptional for photos. I can't praise this venue enough or its staff especially Caroline.

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 had our wedding reception in Castle Dargan and the day could not have been better. We felt very looked after. Our wedding coordinator Caroline was a dream to work with. The hotel and the Manor House are gorgeous and the hotel grounds are very picturesque. Although the hotel can cater for a large weddings there may not be enough rooms for all guests as they have somewhere around 40/50 rooms. They do provide information on alternative accommodation. So keep this in mind if you are thinking of a bigger wedding. All in all a fabulous hotel with lovely staff.

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.

What an amazing day and night we had in Castle Dargan celebrating our wedding. The views were amazing, the food top tier and staff ensured the whole day ran smoothly. Thanks so much to Michelle our wedding coordinator who was just so lovely to work alongside and to Caroline who was a great help when it came to sorting our rooms and ensuring all our guests were accommodated for. Zoltan was always on hand on the evening and ensured our entertainment went to plan. We really couldn't have had a better day we are still on a high from it. Everyone just had such an amazing day. Thank you so much to all the team at Castle Dargan!!
Mr and Mrs Battles!

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.????

Excellent venue, Excellent staff , this was the perfect location for our special day and surpassed all our expectations. Food was amazing and all our guests still remark about how great the food was and how big portion sizes where. Special mention to Zoltan & Caroline who made such a great effort to make our day so special, Caroline hands down best wedding coordinator in Ireland and Zoltan who was a great hit with the guests .. thank you again !! Eimear & Ross

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

The food at Castle Dargan was the highlight. Our guests could not stop talking about the the high quality food and large portions.
The staff were so friendly and there was nothing they couldn't do for us. The hotel and grounds are beautiful.

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

Myself and my husband, Darren booked Castle Dargan Hotel for our wedding well over a year ago. First date was to be 30th Oct 2020, due to Covid we had to change date. The original plan C was 9th January 2021 but new restrictions were brought in on Dec 22nd and we made a quick move to December 29th 2020 as we knew we wanted to get married. We started our wedding planning journey with the fabulous Tanya, then met the lovely Caroline and finally it was the super Michelle who was there with us in the end and who helped us pull it off (along with all the other amazing staff at Castle Dargan) in less than 7 days! Stressful - YES! But Michelle and the staff and all our suppliers could not have done more to help us have the perfect day. We held the ceremony in the Coach Room and it was lovely, only 25 guests allowed - different to what we had planned but so intimate and special. We had our drinks reception in the conservatory restaurant with our lovely Gin bar and garnishes of choice. Michelle and her team transformed the Coach Room into a beautiful dining experience with round tables, Chaivari chairs, table centre pieces and beautiful lighting and music to create a gorgeous atmosphere for our wedding dinner. The food was excellent, service was outstanding, staff were so friendly and each table was checked out numerous times to ensure they had enough of everything. Patrick was the duty manager that night and he was always flying around if anything was needed and there on hand to help. I cannot thank Michelle and all the staff enough for pulling out all the stops in such a short few days and making our day so so special.
Thank you. I couldn't recommend Castle Dargan enough for any function.

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.

Wow where do we start what a day and what an amazing professional service we received from all the staff in castle Dargan , they were all top class especially Breege , Tanya , Jordan , Patrick , the lovely bar manager sorry forgot the name and the lovely Mary . You are a super team and made everything so relaxed and easy for us on the big day and prior nothing was to big of an ask and you were all super with the 45 kids that attended our wedding .

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.

My husband and I got married in Castle Dargan Resort in June 2019. We absolutely loved it and had an amazing day. We had our afterparty there also and the whole weekend was fantastic! The staff couldn't do enough for us and were always very friendly.
Our guests had a great time and loved the hotel too. We are both from Mayo and our family told us they loved the whole weekend being in the hotel for the weekend and found it very relaxing.
My husband and I loved the hotel from the moment we walked into it over a year and a half ago and we were so happy to have our Big Day there. Tanya was so helpful and always quick in replying to any queries we had.

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

Highly recommend Castle Dargan. Tanya, Mary and all the staff were so helpful in the lead up to our day and on the day itself.

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

Everything was perfect from start to finish, Tanya and the team are amazing! The food was severed so quickly and seconds were offered. Everyone commented on how good the meal was and how beautiful the hotel was. The service was first class.

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.

Myself and my wife had the most amazing day in this absolutely stunning hotel, The staff couldn't do enough for us and made what was a potentially stressful day so much easier with their helpfulness. The interior of the hotel was beautiful the food was fantastic and everybody complimented us on a fantastic venue. We couldn't reccomend the Castle Dargan any higher and we are both looking forward to going back to seeing everybody on our 1st Anniversary in November. My only regret is that I couldn't do it all over again ..Collette and Anthony Murphy

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 an amazing day. Brid, Tanya and all the staff couldnt do enough for us so helpful from start to finish. Would highly recommend Castledargan Hotel

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.

Excellent wedding planner and staff at Castle Dargan.It really was the most amazing day ever and everything went to plan thanks to the amazing team in Castle Dargan.

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.

14.7.18

So much to say!!!

Neil & I would like to express our deepest gratitude to all the staff at Castle Dargan for an unforgettable day.

From the day Michelle arrived (Wednesday 11.7.18) to the day we both left, we could not fault the service and attention that everyone showed us. Our wedding day was amazing and everything was taken in stride by a very professional team. The food was amazing and more than plentiful, every one of our guests that we have spoken to have said what a fantastic day it was and how the people from castle Dargan were instrumental to a perfect wedding.

We would both like to say a massive ?Thank You? to all but a particular mention for Tanya and Mary who dealt with so much pre-wedding planning, without you we would have struggled.

We cannot say enough about Castle Dargan as a wedding venue, beautiful setting and beautiful people. YOU HAVE TO DO THIS.

We will have our 1st wedding anniversary with you all, booking soon, can't wait to be back.

Thank you so much,

Mr & Mrs Chandler

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 our Ceremony & Wedding Reception here on the 12th of May and to say it was excellent would not be enough. Tanya is the girl that manages the Weddings. She was absolutely brilliant. The first day we met her we knew we had nothing to worry about as she is so organised and really knows her stuff, extremely professional and nothing is a problem for her. The morning of our Wedding I felt so relaxed just talking to her. Caroline & Staff who decorated the place left no stone unturned it was complete perfection and and they were so lovely to deal with, their attention to detail is magnificent. Mary who sorts out rooms and Collette one of the girls on reception were just all so lovely and a pleasure to deal with. The meal was absolutely fantastic our guests were all so well fed. Bar staff and waiters were all brilliant. Castle Dargan is a Top Class place to have a Wedding & Cermony. We had the most memorable day ever. I highly recommend Castle Dargan as a Wedding Venue to any couple
getting married. Thanks to all..

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 both loved Castle Dargan having been to another friends wedding a few years before so when we got engaged it was an obvious first choice. The surrounds were beautiful and the venue was done exactly as we wanted. Anything i wanted to was no trouble for Siobhan and her team.

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

Had a fabulous day/weekend in Castle Dargan, they couldn't have done more for us! All the guests raved about the food, the hotel and grounds, the staff, everything. Really lovely place, and really lovely staff. Great value too, and we just couldn't have wanted for anything. Thanks for making our day run so smoothly and so well, we felt so relaxed and content all day! All the very best, ?de and Se?n.

Fantastic wedding, highly recommended

The venue and staff were fantastic for our wedding day. We thoroughly enjoyed it, and highly recommend Castle Dargan!

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.

My daughter had her wedding here in July, it was a fantastic day, everyone who attended on the day had a fantastic day, nothing but praise for the venue, the food and the staff. Well done everyone for making Leeanne and Dermie Naughton's day so special.

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.

Thank you to Castle Dargan for hosting what was simply the best day of our life. I have had so many of our guest tell me just how welcome they felt and how it was the 'best food they had ever eaten at a wedding'. The place was immaculate and decorated so beautifully. The staff were so friendly and helpful and I would recommend the venue to anybody getting married 10 out of 10. Can't say enough good things.

Love Mr and Mrs McGuire 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.

Dear Kim,

I would like to sincerely thank you and all the staff at Castledargan for making our special day so wonderful. You made the whole process from start to finish painless and smooth. From our very first meeting at the wedding fayre i knew we would click and i would find you easy to deal with. There was nothing to big or small i asked of you that you didn't try to accommodate. You and your team made the whole experience seamless and effortless. Our guests thoroughly enjoyed the day. Compliments to the Chefs for the amazing food and the waiting staff for the prompt and professional service. Also the bar staff were excellent and served us until the wee early hours of the morning.

My mum slipped and twisted her ankle and a member of your staff assisted her to her room. Which we were so grateful for too. Dean and the band put on a great performance to get the crowd going and we just enjoyed ourselves so much.

So on behalf of Philip and myself we are so happy to have chosen your venue to host our wedding. Feel free to use my comments on any feedback reviews you may have because it truly deserves top marks in every aspect imaginable. Without doubt Castledargan is the best wedding venue in Sligo.

Kind Regards,

Natasha McGowan,

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 had our wedding here on 4-9-15 and we can honestly say this hotel made it the best day of our lives! From the day we booked our entire wedding the hotel excelled themselves in every way to ensure our dreams came true. Each and every member of staff went beyond their call of duty to ensure ourselves and guests where well attended to. The service was amazing, food was out of this world and the wine kept flowing. Our guests are still talking about the amazing venue(especially how comfortable the beds are. Each member of staff should be proud of themselves for the fantastic work they do. Speical thanks to Kim and Chrissie! U both made life alot eaiser for me smile emoticon We shall never forget our amazing day and how you all made it one to remember, we are proud to tell everyone where we got married especially since not many had heard of this beautiful hotel, a treasure tho for us! A million thanks again and you shall be seeing alot more of the new Mr&Mrs Burns

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

Hi ladies!!

We hope everyone in Castle Dargan is keeping well. We are so sorry for the delay in writing this but it took us a while to finally accept that we need to get back to reality!

We don't really know where to start. It's impossible for us to thank you all enough for the fantastic and amazing wedding day that you helped us have at Castle Dargan. Kim from the minute we met with you, you were nothing but a pleasure to deal with. No question was too much and you were always there to solve any query I had and believe me I know how many of them I used to ask you!!!! You helped the lead up to the big day run some smoothly and Imelda from the moment you took over things just continued to run effortlessly.

Everything ran to perfection on the 17th and guests were treated with such individual attention that its no wonder they are still talking about Castle Dargan.

I was hoping you could pass on to Matthew our kindest regards and thanks for all he did for us both. The food was definitely without doubt the best wedding meal we have ever tasted and our guests were blown away by the standard. Guests are still raving about the "fantastic meal". Nobody wanted for anything and everything was timed to perfection. No glasses were ever empty and any requests were happily dealt with. Thank you so much for making this happen.

Chrissie also was an absolute diamond! She blew everyone away with her welcome smile and kind words of greeting. Guests were made feel so special and she helped everyone including myself with anything that they wanted with a constant smile and nothing was ever too much.
It was a pleasure to have chatted and spent time with Br?d the day before the wedding. She really understood the theme we were creating in the function room and helped add to this with her creative flair.

Thank you all so much from the bottom of our hearts. We hope to get down to you guys before Christmas to thank you all in person.

Thanks again for everything.
Mr & Mrs Ormsby

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!

Absolutely fantastic! We got married in Rosses Point Church and we had the reception in the Castle Dargan. We first met Kim the wedding co-ordinator and she sold the venue to us completely by being so friendly and helpful and by listening to us and accommodating our every request. She is an incredibly easy person to deal with for something as complicated as a wedding. On the day of the Wedding and the day after, all the Castle Dargan staff treated us so well - like friends or family. We never left the hotel between Friday and Sunday check-out - we were so comfortable and well looked after, we didn't want to leave. Chrissie and her team at reception were equally outstanding. We never once wanted for a single thing.

Kim met with us a couple of times to discuss details of the wedding. On the run up to the wedding Kim was always available to meet with us or take our calls. Without her ever-present support in the last week we would have been lost. I cannot emphasize enough how highly I rate the service we received from every single member of staff at Castle Dargan.

Everything on the day of the wedding had to follow a strict timeline and we had a lot happening. Not only did everything run smoothly time-wise, but we were also treated to the use of Castle Dargan House for some of the most beautiful wedding photos any bride could wish for. Kim was so friendly when she brought us over there before dinner and calmed us down in a very friendly way. The waiters and waitresses and bar staff were absolutely on the ball, and the food came on time and hot to the right places and the wine and toasts flowed as we had requested. Matthew and his team did a wonderful job.

The day after the wedding Matthew and his team in the Middleton Bar and restaurant were immensely polite, courteous and thoughtful in dealing with us and our families.The girls in the Icon Spa were also amazing. They create such a beautiful relaxing atmosphere throughout the spa. A massage from Aisling is a must! I would recommend the Castle Dargan Hotel and Resort in Sligo to any bride and groom to be. I could type so much more about the high standard of staff and service in Castle Dargan, but I need to leave space for other reviews!! A truly memorable experience and an amazing hotel with fantastic staff. Thanks so much. Trish & Brian xx

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

Thanks so much for all your help with the wedding. Everything was perfect and your help was invaluable. We wish you all the best for your own wedding this summer. Love C?ire & Brian

2nd January 2015

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!

Top class food. Service from all staff was excellent. All the subtle extra touches were appreciated. Our guests are still talking about the venue a year later.

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. The entire team at Castle Dargan were so professional throughout and were a pleasure to deal with - all of our guests were so impressed with the service they received. 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 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.

To Kim and all the staff at Castle Dargan. Thank you so much for all your help and hard work in planning our wedding day. We really could not have asked for any better, everything turned out perfectly. The whole weekend was a fantastic experience and we both had such a wonderful, special day, largely due to all of you!

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

It has now been over two months since we got married yet still we are being complemented on organising a fantastic wedding day. Everyone complements us on how relaxed and happy we were throughout the day, this has a lot got to do with Kim Monaghan and all the staff at Castle Dargan Resort, in a nut shell they were flawless. A FANTASTIC hotel and grounds run by professionals, thank you for a dream wedding.

Regards,

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.
