We had the most wonderful experience at Castlemartyr for our wedding, as did our guests! The staff at Castlemartyr went above and beyond to make our day special as it could be, and nothing was too much - they were just so easy to work with. As we were organising our wedding from abroad, we were worried that it might be difficult, but it was so incredibly easy with the Castlemartyr team, and Sakshi in particular. The venue, the food, the atmosphere, and the service stood out not only to us but to all our guests too. We can't wait to return to Castlemartyr in the very near future! Thank you for helping us create one of the most beautiful days of our lives!

From time of arrival , we were treated with dignity , and respect , staff were so courteous and welcoming. Nothing was too much trouble . I could NOT find any fault with staff , from house maids to servers to managers . All were extremely and actively engaged in delivering the best quality of service to us at all times , day and night. All of the Hotel staff I encountered displayed a vibe of being extremely happy in their working environment. A natural atmosphere of contentment and easiness throughout the hotel was my experience. The hotel and rooms were of a very high quality of standard.
As for the food , my compliments to the chefs involved on the wedding day and throughout our stay . Quality , quantity , variety , and served to the highest standard. Castlemartyer may take a BOW .

From the moment I made contact with Jackie at Castlemartyr Resort I felt completely at ease about the wedding and knew that it would be exactly what we had dreamt for and so much more! The entire staff went above and beyond for us to make it the most special weekend of our lives. From the preparations to the actual wedding day, everything was smooth, straight forward and nothing was ever an issue. We genuinely cannot thank Castlemartyr Resort enough for how special our wedding felt, the staff, the atmosphere, the gardens, the food, the facilities, it truly is the perfect wedding hotel. I couldn’t recommend them more highly and I can guarantee you will not be disappointed. All of our guests were so impressed by the hotel, with some even extending their stay after the wedding. Really looking forward to going back to Castlemartyr Resort in the future to stay again!

Me and my wife got married in castlemartyr just before Christmas and it completely exceeded our expectations.

From the get-go we were extremely well looked after, the food, the service, the staff were all absolutely incredible and made us feel like royalty on the day. They were also incredibly welcoming and comforting to all our guests. It was a no brainer for us to go to castlemartyr and now only is more special to us.

Akashi and her team leave no stone unturned, the quality for the value is incredible and anytime we have been back down since, we are still being treated amazingly well.

Jackie and all of the wider team made our day and wedding weekend the most magical experience! There wasn’t a problem too big or too small for Jackie and the team to look after. Even down to fixing my dad’s dickie bow! They’ve helped us create memories for a life time!

From start to finish, the team at Castlemartyr were absolutely amazing throughout both the planning process and on the wedding day itself.

Sakshi our coordinator was incredibly helpful and accommodating, always going above and beyond to meet all of our requests. On the day of the wedding, I truly couldn’t have asked for a better team. Every member of staff was attentive and supportive, not just to us but to all of our guests.

The food and service were absolutely amazing, with everything delivered to such a high standard and enjoyed by all our guests.

A special mention to Kay, who managed the service on the day so seamlessly and went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect. The entire team played a part in giving us the most special, unforgettable day.

We’re so grateful for everything they did to make our wedding truly perfect.

We got married in Castlemartyr this past November, and we truly couldn’t recommend it more highly. After visiting several venues, we fell in love with it straight away.

From the moment we arrived the evening before our wedding, every member of staff we encountered was incredibly friendly and attentive. Everything ran seamlessly from start to finish, which meant we could completely relax and enjoy every moment of the day, knowing we were in such safe hands.

The team checked in with us throughout the day and were so tuned in to the smallest details. From making sure I had a glass of water before walking down the aisle to thoughtfully covering my dress with a napkin during dinner, nothing was overlooked.

From our ceremony in the Kiltha Suite followed by our drinks reception in Knights Bar, the atmosphere created in the old Manor House was simply amazing. The fires lighting and the Christmas decorations added so much to the cosy and intimate feeling we were hoping for.

In the lead-up to the wedding, we worked with Jackie, who was absolutely fantastic. She responded to every query promptly and made the whole planning process feel easy and stress-free. Her professionalism and warmth really stood out.

We had the most amazing day, filled with memories that will last a lifetime.

We got married at Castlemartyr Resort in November 2025. It could not have been more perfect. Jackie and the team were phenomenal in the lead up to our wedding and helped us plan down to the last detail. This was especially important as both myself and my wife are living abroad. The venue and the grounds are stunning, and every single staff member on the day made sure we had the most magical experience. Kay and Nicola ensured that all our guests were looked after from start to finish. We could not be happier and can't recommend Castlemartyr enough to other couples looking to book their special day.

We had our wedding at Castlemartyr on November 7, 2025 and we couldn’t have asked for a more perfect experience! From the moment we first visited, we knew we were in safe hands with Sakshi, our coordinator. She and the whole team exceeded every expectation on the lead up and the big day.

The team was absolutely incredible: professional, attentive, and genuinely invested in making our day special. Every detail was handled seamlessly, allowing us to fully relax and enjoy each moment without worry. The venue itself was stunning—beautifully maintained, elegant, and the perfect backdrop for our photos and reception. We were surprisingly able to get photos outside in November after the morning rain cleared!

As an American and Irish couple planning our wedding from London, what truly stood out was the level of care and personal attention. The staff went above and beyond to accommodate our requests and made sure everything ran smoothly from start to finish. Our guests are still talking about how amazing the atmosphere, food, service and craic were. Being able to have a family dinner the night before in Kirby’s, and day 2 at the Hunted Hog made everything so smooth. We transported our guests to the church in Killeagh for the ceremony which worked out perfectly.

We are so grateful for everything the team did to make our wedding unforgettable. If you’re looking for a venue that combines beauty, professionalism, and heartfelt service, this is the one. We couldn’t recommend more highly!

We had a wonderful day shared with family & friends , the venue is absolutely stunning both inside and outside for photography. The staff were very friendly and helpful to your needs. However there was room for improvement, more attention to detail and ensuring bride and groom were looked after in every way.

From the moment we arrived, the hotel exceeded every expectation and made our wedding day absolutely perfect. The setting was beautiful, the staff were attentive, professional, and genuinely cared about every detail, and the entire day ran flawlessly. We felt completely supported and stress-free, allowing us to truly enjoy every moment of such an important day. Our guests couldn’t stop complimenting the service, atmosphere, and overall experience. I can’t imagine a more wonderful place to get married, and we will always be grateful to the Castlemartyr for helping make our wedding day unforgettable.

We were married at Castlemartyr and it truly exceeded every expectation. From the first viewing to the last dance, the team were professional, thoughtful, and quietly brilliant, guiding us without ever taking over. The estate blends old-world charm with a modern polish, beautiful rooms for our guests, and stunning grounds that made our photographer’s job delightfully easy. Dinner was a highlight (perfectly timed service, generous portions, and not a single guest with an empty glass). Castlemartyr gave us a classic, elegant celebration with a relaxed, joyful atmosphere. If you’re dreaming of a timeless Irish wedding with contemporary comfort, look no further.
We cannot thank the incredible wedding team enough. From start to finish, everything ran so smoothly and felt effortless, because they had thought of absolutely everything
It was a day filled with joy, elegance, and love, and Castlemartyr made it all possible.
We will be forever grateful.

We got married in Castlemartyr Resort this year and from the very first viewing appointment to the day of the Wedding Castlemartyr were incredible. It was a stunning venue and the staff, especially Jackie, were fabulous. They were so helpful and efficient but also calm. Jackie could not have done enough for us - she is a pro at wedding planning. The food was amazing - as good on the night as at the tasting. We have such beautiful memories of the weekend. We would highly recommend Castlemartyr as a venue to anyone xxx

Sakshi and the Castlemartyr team made us very comfortable throughout the wedding process. In the lead up to the day they were very responsive and were able to offer us lots of good ideas to help us create our perfect wedding. The venue is beautiful and the perfect setting for a wedding. During the day the staff were very attentive and made it a fantastic day for both ourselves and our guests. We would highly recommend Castlemartyr for anyone thinking of having a wedding!

Castlemartyr went above and beyond our expectations to make our wedding an unforgettable experience for us and our guests who had travelled all the way from Australia. Thank you for everything, our guests have spoken about it non-stop.

We celebrated our wedding reception at Castlemartyr in 2025, and from our initial enquiry, the professionalism and attention to detail demonstrated by Sakshi and the entire team were exceptional. Throughout the planning process, Sakshi was consistently helpful, accommodating, and responsive to our requests, making the experience both seamless and enjoyable.

Our wedding day itself was truly outstanding and ran flawlessly from start to finish. The venue provided a stunning backdrop for photographs, eliminating the need for any alternative locations. The drinks reception and meal were superb, and the team showed genuine care and attentiveness to every guest throughout the day. Many of our guests commented on the outstanding level of service, noting it was second to none.

Our wedding day was a huge success, due in no small part to the dedication, professionalism, and exceptional care provided by Sakshi and the team at Castlemartyr.

Highly recommend getting married here. We had the best weekend of our lives! All staff was incredible and so nice to us and our guests. They made everyone feel special and important and were helpful in every way. They were ready for everything and were so professional. They were easy to work with from start to finish and we are so happy we decided to get married here.

We got married in Castlemartyr in August 2025 and I cannot compliment the staff enough. From the original consultation to the actual wedding day, everyone we met was so kind and helpful. We worked with out wedding coordinator Sakshi who was absolutely amazing. She handled everything for us and made our day completely stress free and seamless. She went above and beyond what we thought was possible. I would highly recommended Castlemartyr as a wedding venue. All aspects of the day from accommodation to food and venue were 5 stars. All our guests are still complimenting us on our day.

I couldn’t have imagined a better place to get married! My husband and I were over the moon about how well organized and seamlessly our big day ran. Sakshi and the entire team were extremely professional and ensured everything was perfect. Our guests who flew in from Germany and the USA were so impressed with everything from the grounds, reception, food and rooms. We both wish we could rewind and do the day over again! We both would highly recommend Castlemartyr as a wedding venue. We are already looking forward to going back to celebrate our one year anniversary!

My husband and I got married at Castlemartyr Resort in August 2025, and we cannot express how amazing everything was.

Sakshi was hugely helpful and informative throughout the booking and planning process, especially as we were planning from London.

The day was amazing, from the staff support during the time getting ready, to walking down the aisle, to the drinks reception, the meal, and everything after that!

The staff couldn’t do enough for us all day, always checking that we were ok or asking if we needed anything. Special shoutout to Kay, Nicola and their teams throughout the evening service.

As half of our wedding guests had travelled from the UK, I was really proud to showcase the best of Cork and I truly believe that Castlemartyr helped me succeed with this. All of our guests commented on how helpful all the staff were, how beautiful the venue is, and how the whole day ran seamlessly.

We would not hesitate to recommend Castlemartyr Resort for anyone looking for a wedding venue in Cork, we can’t wait to return on our anniversary already!

We had the most incredible experience celebrating our wedding at Castlemartyr Resort, and we genuinely could not recommend it highly enough to any couple considering it for their big day.

From the very beginning, the team were exceptionally obliging and accommodating. No request was ever too big or too small and every detail we asked for was met with a positive attitude and a genuine willingness to help. Planning a wedding can be stressful, but the professionalism and support from Castlemartyr made the entire process feel seamless and enjoyable.

A very special mention must go to our wedding coordinator, Sakshi, who was absolutely outstanding throughout. She went above and beyond at every stage, ensuring everything ran perfectly and always making us feel reassured and supported. We are so grateful for her dedication and attention to detail.

We would also like to thank Paul, the hotel manager, and Trevor, guest relations manager, both of whom were incredibly kind, attentive, and went out of their way to make sure both we and our guests had the best possible experience. Their level of care did not go unnoticed.

The setting itself is absolutely stunning. The beautiful grounds create such a romantic atmosphere, and we loved the contrast between the old-world charm of the Manor House and the contemporary elegance of the ballroom — it truly offers the best of both worlds.

On the day itself, everything exceeded our expectations. The service, the food, the setting, all of it was simply flawless.

If you are considering Castlemartyr for your wedding, you will be in the safest of hands. They truly go above and beyond to make your day unforgettable.

Thank you again to the entire team for giving us the most perfect day.

Róisín & Paul

My wedding at Castlemartyr was absolutely wonderful. Castlemartyr Hotel is a beautiful place to celebrate a wedding. I had the best experience from the very beginning, from the planning stage, to the wedding day itself, and also the second day, which took place at Castlemartyr Golf Club.

The tasting for my wedding dinner was incredible, and on the wedding day everything was perfect. The entire staff working that day were amazing and extremely professional. Jackie and another lovely lady who guided me on my wedding day were so caring and attentive throughout the whole celebration, dinner, and party.

Everything was incredible. The wedding day was sunny, which made everything even more beautiful. It was truly an unforgettable experience.

We got married in the beautiful gardens of Castlemartyr in August 2025, we were so lucky with the weather and had an amazing outdoor ceremony with many of our guests commenting on how beautiful a setting it was. The service and food was top notch. Kay was great to ensure the day ran smoothly and checked in with us throughout the day without over doing it and letting us enjoy the festivities. One stand out moment was when she arrived with a plate of canapé’s as we were getting our couple photos done to ensure we were feed and didn’t miss out on the delicious food, it was simple but thoughtful touch! We’d a great night celebrating until the early hours and are looking forward to coming back to visit for a night on our 1st Anniversary which was included in our package, a gesture which doesn’t go unnoticed. Communication on the lead up to the wedding was very good and we felt reassured that everything was in hand.

We got married in Castlemartyr in July and to say it was the venue of our dreams would be an understatement. It was incredible! Every single staff member were absolutely amazing, particularly our coordinator Jackie. Jackie and her team were extremely responsive, helpful and friendly throughout the whole planning process. The day itself was spectacular. All our guests raved about the rooms, the food and the service. We haven't stopped getting compliments about the venue. Hand on heart we would highly recommend this venue if you are considering a wedding venue. We have zero negative comments, so you won't regret it.

The service throughout the day was flawless, attentive and friendly without ever being intrusive.

We couldn’t have imagined a more perfect day and are so grateful to the entire team.

Our wedding was in June so it was incredibly hot, would be good for the future if you had better ventilation in the ballroom!

We wanted a small, personal wedding, and are delighted we picked Castlemartyr! We held our ceremony in the library in the old building, the room had nice character and was a good size for our group.
The grounds and rooms were very well presented and made for some amazing locations for photographs, and the food was also a highlight.

Beyond delighted with the way our wedding day went! Since day one we were blown away by every aspect of the Castlemartyr! The staff, grounds, food and service cannot be faulted! Everything we wanted was never too hard and every effort was made to make sure the day went smoothly ! The food is 10/10, every staff member went above and beyond, and always with a smile ! The grounds and venue itself are breathtaking, you really don’t need to add a lot of decor for the venue to still shine through! One of the best things is the space for everything throughout the day, you don’t have to leave the hotel for a massive variety of pictures due to the extensive grounds!
Beyond all of this we’d love to thank Jackie, she completely made our day possible and was a joy to work with :)
We couldn’t recommend the Castlemartyr, Jackie and the team more and are so grateful to everyone there who made our day possible !!

Jackie, Kay and the team at Castlemartyr went above and beyond and helped make our wedding day the best day ever! In the run up to the wedding, they were a pleasure to deal with and so well-organised and professional. We had family and friends staying at the hotel for a few days and everyone was warmly welcomed and really well looked after! The day itself ran so smoothly, all thanks to the team! They thought of everything and took such good care of us and all our guests! I cannot recommend highly enough Castlemartyr Resort and the team there!

From first day the support and service provided by Sakshi and Castlemartyr team was amazing. we cannot speak high enough and the setting was just magical

Castlemartyr is a breathtaking venue and booking it was a no brainer once we had visited it. However, we never knew then how truly incredible it would be on the day. We had the absolute best day and this was in no small part due to the amazing work of all the staff at Castlemartyr. Our guests could not have been more complimentary of the staff and the food and drink. Many of them told us it was the best wedding they had ever been to. It is 5 weeks since our wedding now and we are still pinching ourselves over how incredible it all was. One of our friends only said to us yesterday how the beef was probably the best beef he has ever had. Everyone was impressed with how well fed we all were and they all commented on how beautiful the venue was. We decided not to add too much decor in terms of flowers etc and didn't know if it would be missed but it really wasn't. People commented on the beautiful candelabras and the stunning chandeliers.
From the first visit, to our menu tasting, to the days leading up to it we could not have asked for more, every member of staff we spoke to was honestly so helpful and willing to do whatever they could to make our wishes come true. Kevin the Head Chef looked after us really well at our tasting and the quality of the food was not reduced when it was done for all our guests. Jackie was also great in responding to any of our questions. Sakshi was just fantastic she paid as much attention to detail as we did so no detail was overlooked. Thank you so much Sakshi, you honestly made our day perfect! Maeve in reservations was just brill she looked after all our guests and even managed to get an adjoining room for my 101 year old Granny so that she could be there too. Kay ran the day like clock work and ensured we didn't need to worry about anything. There were so many other staff that we interacted with who I unfortunately don't know the names of but thank you so much to each and every single one of you.
We can not wait to come back!
Claire and Michael

The wedding team and the staff at Castlemartyr were absolutely amazing and made our day the most special it could possibly be. We planned the wedding from abroad and no request was too much for the team, nothing phased them at all. On the day, every single staff member at the venue was a dream to have there, they made us feel so special, and made all of our guests feel incredibly relaxed and welcomed. We are so looking forward to being able to go back and visit in the future!

Thank you so much to Lucy and all of the wedding co-ordination team at castlemartyr for providing us with the most magical day of our lives. From the minute we decided to have our wedding in castlemartyr, we were treated impeccably well and always with the utmost courtesy and kindness. On the day itself we were made to feel like royalty, from the second we arrived and at many other intervals throughout the day. We had some extra entertainment planned for the day so it was very important that a tight schedule was maintained. I would like to pay a particular mention to Kaye for running such a tight ship on the day and keeping everything to plan. So, to Lucy, Kaye, Richard and all the other staff in castlemartyr on behalf of us both we want to say a massive thank you. We could not recommend you enough.

We are absolutely delighted that we chose Castlemartyr for our wedding and we have nothing but praise for the whole team, we wouldn't have changed a single thing and it went even better than we could have imagined! All our guests were raving about the magnificent venue, the delicious food and the phenomenal service. I would recommend the resort to anyone in an instant and a very special thank you to Lucy, Kay, Jackie, Maeve & Aoife for all your help in both the run up to the wedding and the day itself - you made all our guests feel so welcome and no request that we had was ever a problem so we really appreciate everything! We genuinely do believe that the resort has the best events team and it is because of you all that our wedding turned out so wonderfully! Thank you again to everyone involved, we will treasure the memories and our time at the resort for years to come :)

We loved Castlemartyr, the venue was stunning and we received so many compliments from our wedding guests. The grounds are gorgeous and we got amazing service and support before and during the wedding. We felt very taken care of and the food was magnificent too.

We had our wedding reception at Castlemartyr in July this year. We were delighted with the new renovations to the resort which make it very modern but also still capture the essence of the old style manor house. Our guests were very impressed with the venue and the attentive staff. All the staff were excellent, we would especially like to thank Yvonne and Jackie for all the time put into the preparations everything was fab on the day. Also to Trevor and Kay who made it very personalised they were a great help to us over the 3 days we were there. The morning after the wedding, our guests enjoyed breakfast with us in a private room off the restaurant, it was a lovely opportunity to reminisce on the day before and say our farewells. The staff kindly put some of our wedding flowers on the tables for our guests to enjoy. We were delighted with our choice of venue.

We were so pleased with our choice as we only had the chance to arrange two venue viewings in between Covid lockdowns December 2020 and Castlemartyr did not disapoint. The grounds allowed for us to have fabulous photos taken on the day and our guests enjoyed an outdoor drinks reception overlooking the fabulous gardens with the old Castle in the background. Everyone was impressed with the excellent food and beautiful bedrooms. Lucy made it all very easy for us as it was stress free in the lead up and no request was ever a problem. Thanks to everyone in Castlemartyr for the perfect day!!

From the minute we booked our wedding venue right up to the end of the wedding day the professionalism of all staff was amazing. Castlemartyr is stunning with a mixture of old-world and modern. The grounds for photos are stunning.. our day was perfect thanks to everyone at Castlemartyr

Jackie, Kay and all of the team at Castlemartyr did a truly fantastic job of hosting our wedding! In the lead up to the wedding, Jackie was always available to answer any queries or concerns we had and was a real joy to work with. On the day itself, everything was flawless. The hotel and grounds looked stunning, the food was beautiful, the accommodation was so comfortable and the service was fantastic. Jackie and Kay did an amazing job of ensuring that everything ran smoothly and on time. In the days after the wedding, we were inundated with stories from our guests about the little things the hotel staff had done in the background to ensure that everyone had a really enjoyable day and this was definitely a highlight for us too. From ensuring that we had nibbles while we were taking photos to looking after younger and older guests who needed a bit of extra care, the hotel seamlessly managed these little details and it meant that we could truly relax and enjoy the day. We had such a wonderful couple of days in Castlemartyr and we are already looking forward to our return trip!

From the moment we drove into the property we new it was for us.
We were met with enthusiasm and excitment at hosting our wedding.
Understanding that sales are sales, however, we didnt feel like we were just another wedding couple, we felt like the only wedding couple.
As we planned our wedding before covid, we experienced a few different changes with staff.
The support and kindness that was shown by Jackie when we first postponed was beyond a job title, it was personal understanding and empathy at the situation. We received the same graciousness when we had to pospone a second time.
Picking a third date had its challenges and it was intenses for a period of time. This left is a little deflated at the time. All was explained and clear when we heard of the take over. What pressure and uncertainty for managers at the time in the middle of a pandemic must have been very stressfull.
5star is not easy to achieve and its even more difficult to maintain. Congratulations to all who managed to keep a clear head and remain so upbeat and supportive in such an uncertain time all round.
With the new take over it feels like we jave been on a journey with the hotel. We grew in momentum on the preparations for our wedding and so did the resort with all the improvements. As the months passed we were getting stronger as a couple and the resort was getting stronger as a destination too.
A litte lesson in change and development being positive even though it can be uncertain and a little shaky along the way with some ups and downs. On reflection entering into marriage has a similar journey, hard work getting there and hard work to maintain with a beautiful outcome.

It takes a strong team and group of teams to run such an operation. This can only be achieved with strong leadership which is certainly the case here. I think the right team of people are in situ and will bring much strength and success to the resort.

The waiting staff were always wih a smile, always took time to say hello and exchange pleasentries with an interest in your day and suggestions of things to do in the area.

Sarah and the whole team at Castlemartyr really couldn't do enough for our big day. Every aspect came off perfectly, and this was no accident as we had everything planned down to a tee. Sarah had everything checklisted and made sure that we finalised our key decisions in time and in the right way. She was always available for us and really helped to put us at ease when it came to any matter.

The grounds are stunning, the accommodation is the height of comfort, the food and drink are all of top quality, and no matter what we needed there was always someone on hand to sort it out for us. We had three incredible days in Castlemartyr to make the most of the experience and every minute was worth it.

Jackie and Kay were amazing for making our wedding day, unbelievably perfect. It was absolutely flawless and we cannot have wanted anything more. All of the staff were brilliant, friendly, and approachable. All of our guests were amazed, not only by the beauty of the hotel, but by all the staff and their service.

From the moment we booked with Castlemartyr, we have been treated with the utmost respect and been accommodated at all times, even after two date changes due to covid 19. Details were carefully considered and we were contacted any time there was a query. Jackie has been amazing at getting back to us and ensuring it was such an easy process, especially when we do not live in Ireland.

When we arrived ahead of the wedding, we were treated like royalty and that we were so special all throughout our stay. The whole wedding day was flawless and I would not change a thing, and that was a credit to all of the staff at Castlemartyr. Even the days after when we were at the hotel, with other weddings happening, we were still treated like we were the most important people, which made our time there even better.

Every guest commented on how amazing the food was too, a lot even said it was the best wedding food they have ever had!

Castlemartyr will always hold a very special place in our hearts, and we are already planning our next time there.

If you?re thinking of Castlemartyr for your wedding? Do it!! Such an amazing venue - the staff, food and grounds are second to none. Highly recommend!

Our day was so special. The team at Castlemartyre could not have done more for us. Both Jackie and Kay are phenomenal and incredible at what they. Our guests made frequent comments of how tremendous the staff at Castlemartyr were on the day and throughout the whole weekend. Nothing was an issue. We cannot recommend Castlemartyr enough. We are looking forward to our return on our wedding anniversary.

The comments we got from our guests can be summarised as:
Excellent food and meal
Beautiful venue inside and out
Great service and friendly staff
Accommodation was top notch
Had a great time

Fantastic to deal with from start to finish.
We booked Castlemartyr after considering a different locations. The setting and professionalism of the staff won us over. Jackie from the hotel worked with us all the way through to plan our wedding and was a great help be it with advise, answering or getting answers to any questions we had, as well as the various alterations needed around the COVID restrictions. Communication was excellent and all responses were timely, thorough, we were always clear on what the hotel needed from us and vice versa.

On the day the setup and hotel were excellent, there are so many locations both outside and inside the hotel for photographs. The drinks reception and welcome our guest received was wonderful from the concierge team helping older relatives out of cars and delivering bags to guests rooms to the tasty food options. Food was also delivered to us (bridal party) as we were having photos taken, a much appreciated and needed at the time.

The Capel Suite/ballroom was excellent the closing of the curtains and changing accent light subtly moved the evening from dinner to dancing.
The dinner was excellent, and there was plenty of options that let us put our stamp on the menu. Our guests commented how good the meal was. The champ is fantastic!
The dinner service was great and ran off without a hitch which meant the band was able to kick off and get the party going.

On the day we were never looking for anyone to do something for us, the staff were there when needed and everything to worked. There are so many small touches like a private room for the wedding breakfast the next day, the Capel suite being so self contained, always someone to help if needed and much more that made it a great day for us.

We would highly recommend Castlemartyr.

We would genuinely reccommend Castlemartyr to anyone. We were looking for a venue that could offer a luxurious, relaxed atmosphere for us and our guests to enjoy and one that was professional and reputable enough such that planning the wedding would be as little stress and hassle as possible. We found that and more to be true of Castlemartyr.

The following became apparent right from our inital visit, when we first made our enquiries. The experience and warm nature of the team really fills you with confidence that your wedding day will be of the utmost quality, or at least it did for us and at every point thereafter we recieved 5 star treatment.

Every query or request we had was promptly answered and dealt with. And ours were few, because in fairness, they already had everything in hand. Our menu tasting experience only fuelled our excitement further, and we availed of a preferential B&B rate on that occasion too, which we would highly reccommend.

Everything about the day went as planned, in a seemless nature. I think when you are left with that impression, that everything is where and how it should be, but you have no idea who did it or when it was done - it goes to demonstrate the efficiency of the team in Castlemartyr.

We thank Sarah and Kay, and compliment the rest of the team on their super high standards - They are absolutely fantastic at what they do and lovely while they do it too! Moreover, our guests echo this, and havent stopped telling us so since the wedding!

Would highly reccommend.

excellent service

Our wedding at Castlematyr was everything we wished for and more. Sarah was our wedding planner and she was absolutely fantastic to deal with. So helpful and couldn't do enough to ensure we had the best day. Some family members contracted covid just before the wedding and couldn't make it and the hotel went above and beyond to set up screens for them to be able to zoom the ceremony and the speeches. The venue itself is spectacular and the service we received from all of the staff was 5 star. We had a small wedding and we had the ceremony in the garden suite and the reception in the kiltha room, both rooms were stunning, and the food and wine was top notch. We can't wait to make many more return trips in the coming years.

We had an unbelievable experience with our wedding in Castlemartyr Resort. Everything about it was done with great care and the service was genuinely exceptional. Every guest we spoke to complemented the setting, the food and the staff. There was a very personal, boutique feeling to the place which is very impressive given its a 5 star resort. We could not recommend it highly enough to any couple looking for a venue for their wedding.

From initial contact to the wedding day the professionalism and assistance offered by Sarah and Jackie was outstanding. They quickly responded to any queries we had and shared many recommendations and suggestions. On the wedding day everything ran smoothly and effortlessly all down to Sarah's coordinating. Numerous guests complimented the food and the service. We could not recommend Castlemartyr Resort more highly to couples.

From the initial planning stages, up until the day itself, all of the team at Castlemartyr were incredibly helpful and friendly. No ask was too big; it was a pleasure to have had our wedding there and we cannot wait to return!

I cannot thank Castlemartyr resort enough and Sarah Flynn for all they did for our wedding. I provided all the decor and they set up everything to exactly how I wanted. The food, service and staff were amazing. Not one guest could fault any part of the day. Highly recommend this hotel if you want your wedding day to be so special

We had the most wonderful wedding day in Castlemartyr. From start to finish the staff couldn't have treated us any better and everything went so perfectly on the day. The food was amazing and the service was excellent. Jackie took care of every little detail and made sure our day was exactly what we wanted it to be. Her attention to detail was fantastic and she was such a great help in the lead up to the wedding as well as on the day itself. We had one change in wedding date and Jackie made sure this was never an issue for us and the change was very stress-free. I would have no hesitation is recommending Castlemartyr for a wedding venue it was exceptional.

Our wedding at the Castlemartyr Resort was everything we expected and more. The staff were so friendly and super helpful. They made sure the day ran perfectly. All of our friends and family were blown away with how the venue looked and how good the staff were.

We could not say more about the team in castlemartyr. Our coordinator Jackie was absolutely fantastic. Jackie had so much advice, guidance and recommendations throughout the build up, which was sp invaluable during a pandemic! Any issues that cropped up on the day were sorted before we even knew about them. The food was so delicious and the dinner service went smoothly. We only wished the day could have been longer. We stayed for 3 days and our stay was so enjoyable. None of us wanted to leave including our dog of honour ????. Would highly recommend the venue and their team to anyone.

Castlemartyr is the most fabulous venue and we are so thrilled we decided to have our wedding there. During the Covid pandemic over the last 1.5 years, the team have been so supportive and incredibly flexible in helping us to rearrange our wedding. We ended up postponing our wedding three times and with the help of Castlemartyr, the stress and worry was taken out of this for us as nothing was a problem for them and they helped us to plan around the restrictions. We cannot thank the staff enough for all their wonderful service, support and help throughout the planning of our big day, and of course for the amazing personal touches they provided on our wedding day. We were made to feel so special, all our guests were extremely well looked after and everyone is still talking about how wonderful the food, service and venue was. Thank you so much Castlemartyr for helping us to have the most special and memorable day.

The wedding coordinator Sarah along with Jackie were so attentive and nothing was a problem on the day or the lead up to the wedding.
Martin in the bell tower made sure we wanted for nothing.
We felt so spoilt by all the staff, in particular Rebecca and Luke. What an incredible experience. The food was devine and the manor menu had excellent choice. Couldn't fault a thing and can't thank Castlemartyr Resort enough for making our day so special.

We were blown away by the job Jackie and her colleagues did to deliver a wedding that was beyond our expectations.
From the minute we arrived in Castelmartyr the day before our wedding every detail was looked after. The hotel staff could not have been more helpful.
On the wedding day itself, the garden room (for our scaled down COVID wedding) looked like a dream. Our guests commented that the food was some of the best they had ever had at a wedding and we completely agree!
We would like to give a special mention to Chris Harold, who on the night we felt went above and beyond for us.
Although it was not the wedding we originally planned, Castlemartyr made sure we didn't feel hindered by restrictions and the day felt so relaxed and special. We wouldn't change a thing about the day and would have no hesitation in recommending Castlemartyr to family and friends.

Myself and Colin fell where married in CastleMartyr December 2020. It was an intimate wedding (restricted to max 25 at that time) but absolutely perfect. Even though the wedding was small there was no mistaking we got the royal treatment from Jackie and all the staff at the hotel from the moment we and our family arrived. Our whole family enjoyed the day and their extended stay in the hotel. The hotel exudes a warm and friendly atmosphere, not to mention top class facilities and food, the perfect combination for an intimate wedding breakaway. No need to leave with hotel spa hair and makeup, church 2 mins away, "the village florist", local cake makers and photographers....and not to mention resident piano player Mary who played through the evening?even some festive tunes for the little ones?..!! I would highly recommend the hotel for a wedding. Thank you to Jackie and all the staff for making our day everything we wanted, from Colin & Josephine.

I was very happy to have my wedding in the Castlemartyr hotel. Thanks very much to the wonderful team at Castlemartyr hotel for arranging everything. The hotel staff were very helpful and friendly and looked after us so well. We got ready in a very spacious bridal suite which I was very happy with. We managed to have the ceremony outside and everything was beautifully set-up. The wedding decor in the Living Room and Garden Room were also lovely. We booked a spa the next day and we were allowed to check out later in the afternoon which I really appreciated. I also enjoyed the lovely breakfast. I'll definitely go back for my one year anniversary next year.

We can't thank Castlemartyr and their fantastic staff enough for the amazing effort they put in to give us an amazing wedding day. The quality, experience, and dedication of the entire team really shone through, especially with everything going on at present. From start to finish all of our guests felt very safe and comfortable, and Castlemartyr made our small intimate wedding into everything we could have hoped for. The grounds gave us the perfect setting for our photos, the Capel suite gave us a beautiful setting for our meal, and the staff delivered what we can only describe as a masterclass in customer service. We cannot commend Castlemartyr enough for everything they have done for us, and we would advise anyone looking to have a wedding to visit them.

We had a wonderful wedding and we can't thank the Castlemartyr Resort enough for helping make it as special as possible. We thoroughly enjoyed our day. The handling and management of the reception was outstanding. The staff friendly and supportive, the food delicious. The venue beautiful and so well kept. When we first met with the hotel in 2019 we knew we were going to be in good hands. Considering the difficulties around pandemic re-plans and restrictions we believe we were proven right. Throughout all, the hotel remained professional, understanding and as flexible as possible. A much reduced wedding in terms of number than originally planned, it became the big wonderful day we hoped for nonetheless. Couldn't recommend the Castlemartyr Resort more.

We honestly couldn't have asked for anything more. Not only is Castlemartyr such a stunning hotel,the staff were just amazing to deal with and always so kind and helpful. From the first day we met with them they went above and beyond to make our wedding day so special. I would highly recommend Castlemartyr Resort.

We got married in Castlemartyr in November 2019 and it was just a dream from start to finish. Jackie is so so lovely to deal with and we were looked after so well we can't thank them enough. If you are thinking of Castlemartyr for your wedding venue all we can say is definitely go for it!

Joe and I got married in Castlemartyr Resort on Saturday October 26th. From the very minute we booked Castlemartyr as our venue, they couldn't have been more helpful and were an absolute pleasure to deal with. As we are not from the area, the night before the wedding several of our guests descended on the resort and had a fantastic evening in the Living Room where we all enjoyed Franchinis pizzas and drinks from the hugely helpful Khan and his staff. On the wedding day itself, they went above and beyond to ensure ourselves and our guests had the most fantastic day imaginable. A special mention has to go to our fantastic coordinator Elaine, nothing was ever a problem and we always had serious laughs when we got together also, she did everything she possibly could to ensure we had a magical day and we really did!The morning of the wedding was a little crazy as our photographer double booked us, but within seconds the Castlemartyr staff were on the phones and emails trying to sort it out and left no stone unturned until we had a photographer. We had the lovely Jason drive us to and from the venue to the church and he was an absolute gentleman and really calmed the nerves. Once the crisis was averted the day was truly spectacular, the service, the food, the atmosphere just everything was amazing and that is down to the professionalism and kindness of the staff at Castlemartyr. The food was absolutely fantastic and all of our guests are still talking about it's sheer excellence. A huge thank you to all the staff at Castlemartyr but in particular Elaine, Raouf, Kay, Donagh, Trevor and Brendan. Our wedding day exceeded all of our expectations and really was the best day of our lives. Thank you all so much! Dervla

We got married in Castlemartyr in October and spent the weekend there Friday - Monday. From the moment we arrived we felt like royalty. We were introduced to all of the managers and staff and they made sure we were looked after all weekend. It was literally the best weekend of our lives!
Jackie Day was our wedding coordinator and nothing was ever an issue or a problem to her, she literally answered all of our questions within hours / days and always helped with suggestions and advice. She was a pleasure to deal with and so witty - a credit to Castlemartyr.
On Friday we had our church rehearsal and had family and friends stay over. Jackie booked out 'The Living Room' for us for the evening where we had finger food and drinks. The cocktails are absolutely amazing!
On the Saturday, the wedding morning, everyone was on hand to make sure we had everything we needed and went above and beyond my expectations. Breakfast, brunch, prosecco and strawberries were brought to the room for me and my bridal party. Any last minute hiccups were sorted with ease and everything was just perfect.
The arrival reception provided for us and our guests was amazing; canapes, prosecco, cider punch. The evening 5-course meal was the highlight for many guests! The quality of the food was outstanding with steaks cooked absolutely perfectly.
On Sunday morning, we had our own banqueting room with table service breakfast for all of our guests, where the room was ours right up until 1pm. Guests used the leisure and spa facilities, ate in the bar, and had drinks in the bar for the day.
Our guests are still talking about the staff at Castlemartyr, how they were treated, and how they cannot wait to return for a future visit. Many said it was the best wedding venue they have ever been to. I cannot thank the staff at Castlemartyr enough, genuinely. It was the most perfect weekend and I think about it every day! Julie X x

My now husband and I had the pleasure of celebrating our wedding in Castlemartyr on the 19th of September this year.

From the very beginning going down to view and discuss every detail the staff were nothing but amazing. Always so welcoming kind and professional.

Every trip we had in the 18 month build up was just the highlight of our day and we always looked forward to it!

The pre wedding menu tasting was beyond indulgent. We took the time to stay the night and seriously enjoyed it. We could not wait for what was ahead.

On the day every guest raved about the food the quality and the service from every staff member!

Huge shout out though has to go to the greatest wedding planner- Elaine! We always came away with smiles on our faces and sore sides from laughing so hard with her she is just brilliant!
She had every detail organised and was always beyond professional and kind.
She made our day the greatest.
It felt like we were being welcomed by a friend when we arrived to Castlemartyr on the day which was so lovely.

Sincere thanks to her and Kay who ensured everything went off without a hitch from that afternoon and well into to the wee hours of the morning.

Look no further than this stunning location for the most elegant beautiful and timeless wedding celebration!!

Patrick and I had the most amazing wedding day at Castlemartyr Resort on 13.09.2019. Our wedding coordinator Jackie Day was fantastic, not only in terms of her professionalism but also her flair and interest in all things weddings. She kept us on track throughout the process, answering all questions and most importantly kept us cool, calm and collected throughout when any anxieties or stresses arose.
Castlemartyr itself, in terms of venue was only spectacular and this was matched with great quality produce and attentive staff throughout our wedding day. Our guests too were highly complimentary of the food, which for an Irish wedding is an absolute must!
We would both highly recommend Castlemartyr Resort as a top quality wedding venue.

Having recently got married in Castlemartyr Hotel my husband and I could not recommend or rate the hotel highly enough. Jackie our coordinator was so professional and could not help us enough no matter our request. She was so helpful throughout the planning and gave us some lovely tips and advice on how to make our day even more special for our guests. The hotel speaks for itself in terms of style but it is it's staff that add to it being so warm and welcoming. The staff on the day of our wedding (as well as the many times we had visited beforehand) were just brilliant. They are down to earth, chatty and so accommodating. The hotel does really look after not only the bride and groom but all of the guests as well and we received so many nice compliments from our guests on how they were treated. You will not regeret it if you choose Castlemartyr Hotel as your wedding venue, we will always be thrilled that we chose this venue to get married and cannot wait to visit again.

From the first time we met Elaine at Castlemartyr we know that we had found the perfect venue for our wedding. Elaine was an absolute pleasure to deal with from beginning to end. Everything was made so easy when making decisions. The advice we got at our Tasting meal and when choosing our wine was second to none. We felt special from day one and every time we visited the hotel they couldn't do enough for us. On the day of our wedding Elaine and the team treated both us and our guests in the manner we had come to expect.

From the moment we booked I couldn't fault anything about the Castlemartyr, staff were fantastic in every aspect of organising. My mum fell sick in the weeks leading up to the wedding and not attending, I hadn't the time to deal with wedding issues and they more or less took over and I had nothing to worry about, leaving me have time to concentrate on my mum. The staff are literally what make this hotel so amazing, and made my wedding so perfect.

We had a wonderful wedding day and couldn't be happier with our choice of venue.
The setting at Castlemartyr is spectacular and served as the perfect backdrop for our outdoor Hindu wedding ceremony and wedding reception. We were blessed with the finest of warm weather on our special day and the picture-perfect sunkissed grounds made for magical photography opportunities which we will treasure forever.
Castlemartyr is a 5 star resort and we were treated as royals every step of our journey from the wedding planning stages right up to the special day. The staff were welcoming and at all times helpful and attentive. Our wedding coordinator Elaine was most approachable and friendly. She was, along with all the staff at Castlemartyr, most helpful and willing to go the extra mile to make our day special and memorable.
Our wedding day was unique and incorporated both a church ceremony and a Hindu ceremony. The Hindu ceremony was held outdoors within the grounds of Castlemartyr resort. The staff at Castlemartyr all worked incredibly hard to ensure that the setup of our Hindu ceremony was as we desired; the layout of the Mandap, the setup of the guest chairs by the fountain, the location of statues and Flowers etc . We didn't need to worry, all was in capable hands.
Our guests very much enjoyed the well-presented drinks reception outdoors and commended the exquisite menu served in the magestic Capel suite.
The rooms were most comfortable and out of this world. Oh and as for the presidential suite one cannot find the right words: Wow simply wow !
Thank you all at Castlemartyr for making our wedding day so special and memorable and personal...Oh and thanks Gerry for helping us strap the remaining 2 tiers of our wedding cake into the carseat on the day of our departure!!! Love to you all from the new Mr&Mrs Patel xx

We got married at Castlemartyr in July 2019 and had a wonderful wedding day. Jackie Day was our wedding coordinator, she was brilliant leading up to the wedding and on the day itself. The staff were incredible from the concierge, to the wedding / bar staff, they were all so helpful and made us feel very special. Too many people to even mention! From the moment of even considering Castlemartyr as an option, we were never going to go elsewhere; not only are the grounds and venue amazing but the staff were incredible at every stage from planning, to the evening itself, and since thereafter.

We have a young daughter who was with us one of the occasions we went to visit the hotel before the wedding and they treated our whole family with unbelievable generosity and kindness. Our wedding guests highlighted how amazing the experience and the food was on the day, not to mention the late breakfast the day after. We were made to feel special and I honestly couldn't fault anything. Living abroad, Jackie made the whole experience that much easier and pleasurable, coming up with ideas and overall reducing our stress levels! Now anytime we have a need to travel to Cork for any reason, Castlemartyr is always our first choice, we have stayed in contact with Jackie and the hotel, and even now they are as helpful as ever! Its a beautiful resort and I'd highly recommend Castlemartyr to anyone looking at wedding venues. They truly went above and beyond to make our day special, so much so we even had our guests comment on how great their staff were, along the food and facilities/resort.

Castlemartyr Resort was the perfect location for our wedding this summer! The entire team especially our wonderful coordinator Jackie Day made the whole experience incredibly enjoyable without any stress. No request was too big or too small and the entire team at Castlemartyr were welcoming and helpful throughout. The food is a particular highlight at Castlemartyr with many of our guests astonished at the extremely high standard. Rooms at the Resort are another highlight, again many of our guests were blown away by them. Overall, we would highly recommend Castlemartyr to any couple looking for a 5 star experience for their special day! We cannot wait for our next stay at the Resort!

The Castlemartyr far exceeded our expectations for our wedding. Ellen could not do enough for us leading up to the day and made the organising so stresa free and simple. Pur weddong meal was amazing and the room for the wedding was stunning. I would highly recommend the Castlemartyr for a wedding or any other big event!

I could not recommend castlemartyr resort hotel enough. They went above and beyond for us. Jackie was a amazing. One of the best days of my life and will always cherish and hold castlemartyr resort hotel close to my heart

We got married on 1st June 2019, and had our wedding reception in Castlemartyr Resort. I would highly recommend Castlemartyr as a wedding venue. I looked into quite a few venues before we picked here, and I am so happy with our choice.

Getting married the bank holiday weekend (and looking to prolong the celebrations as much as possible!) we decided to have a 3-day affair for our wedding. A major benefit to Castlemartyr is that it provided the ideal venue for this - we were able to have food and drinks with our guests in Castlemartyr both the night before the wedding, and the day after the wedding! Once we moved into Castlemartyr we did not have to leave - so even though our wedding was just 1 day, it felt like we got excellent value for money as we were actually around the venue for 4 days.

Castlematyr is the perfect wedding venue, for many reasons:

1 - Staff:
The staff at Castlemartyr are so friendly, helpful and professional. From as far back as when we were enquiring about having our wedding in Castlemartyr, to staying there for our Wedding Tasting, right up until our Wedding Day weekend, all staff were so courteous and pleasant to deal with. All of our guests also found the staff to be so friendly and polite, and excellent at their jobs.

2 - Wedding Planner:
When you book your wedding at Castlemartyr you are assigned a wedding planner - which is an excellent bonus. Our wedding planner was Elaine and she helped us with absolutely everything relating to the wedding reception. It was great to have someone there that you could rely on every step of the way. Elaine was a true professional, and it was clear that she loved her job which is nice to see. She went above and beyond for us!

3 - Grounds:
Castlemartyr Resort is a stunning venue - our wedding photos and wedding video look like something right out of a bridal magazine as ALL areas (hotel, garden, castle ruins, bridal suite) are so picturesque! Our videographer had a drone and the footage over the hotel grounds is just exceptional!

4 - Food:
All of our guests raved about the food served at our wedding. We went for the Sea Bass and Fillet Steak options for main course, and both went down a treat! Portions were very generous, and quality of the food was exceptional.

5 - Accommodation:
Castlemartyr offers an amazing choice of accommodation for guests. We decided to make our wedding in a 3-day affair. Many of our guests booked into the self-catering mews and lodges for three nights. This was a great option as it worked out excellent value. It was also ideal for families as there is ample space and the ability to prepare your own food for picky children! For our guests staying just one or two nights - most opted to stay in the fabulous hotel rooms. All hotel rooms in Castlemartyr are very impressive, and their breakfast spread is the best I have had in any 5 star hotel in Ireland.

6 - Bridal Suite:
The lavish bridal suite was the perfect location for getting ready the morning of the wedding. It was big enough for all the bridal party, and the perfect backdrop for my wedding prep photos!

In conclusion, I would highly recommend Castlemartyr to any couple looking for a 5 star wedding venue.
I cannot wait to go back to stay there again very soon!

Castlemartyr was a stunning venue who catered for exactly what we needed. The staff went above and beyond to ensure all went smoothly on the day. Couldn't recommend the place enough

We had our wedding last month in the wonderful Castlemartyr. Where Do I start firstly I want to mention Jackie Day our wedding coordinator she made the whole process so seamless and was so quick to respond to any emails I sent her with any queries or worries I had.
She went above and beyond to make sure our day was perfect. No request was too big or small and the day went without a hitch because Jackie was behind the scenes making sure every thing ran so smoothly.
Myself and my husband were treated like the only couple getting married here from the day we choose the venue , our menu tasting etc.
All our guests are still raving about the food comparing it to a Michelin Star restaurant standard and there was also comments about wine was constantly topped up which is always a good thing to hear at an Irish wedding ;)
We felt that we got great value for money as there is so much included in the package and was worth every penny.
Our family and all our guests are were treated so well over the whole weekend we were there and we can't thank all the team at Castlemartyr enough. A special mention to Trevor also who was a star and a pure gent.
My husband said to me on our honeymoon that he wants to get married all over again just to experience the great day we had:)

Amazing! We cannot thank our coordinators, Elaine and Kay, and all the staff at Castlemartyr enough for the kindness, courtesy and expertise shown to make our wedding day a day to remember. Castlemartyr Resort is spectacular with beautiful gardens and the staff were so welcoming. With the beautiful hotel and grounds we chose to do our photographs on site and they turned out beautiful and it also gave us more time to spend with our guests.

From the outset everyone was a pleasure to deal with, so enthusiastic and warm. Honestly, we could not have asked for a nicer, kinder and more hard working team of people to help us through our special day.

The feedback from our guests was out of this world, they said the food, atmosphere and staff were amazing and they couldn't do enough for them on the day, one thing that was so important to us

I cannot recommend Castlemartyr Resort enough

I can't stress enough how much I recommend Castlemartyr. We had our wedding there a couple of weeks ago, and the day couldn't of gone more perfectly. The staff were incredibly attentive, welcoming, and helpful, at a moments notice. Jackie and her team were so facilitating, nothing was too much trouble and the welcome that our guests also received was second to none. Everyone of our gusts commented on the quality of the food, the rooms and the atention to detail from the staff. The wedding room itself was absolutely perfect. No detail was overlooked and Jackie worked tirelessly along side us to make it the most special day of our lives. If you are looking for a wedding venue I 100% recommend Castlemartyr!!!

One word- phenomenal( although I'm biased)

It's hard to find fault with Castlemartyr as a wedding venue. Beautiful setting, great service, food and atmosphere (especially at Christmas time) and no problem too big or too small in the lead up.
Not a single one of our guests had any complaints and every one of them was made to feel welcome and special. Can't recommend Castlemartyr enough!

My husband and I are based in Australia. From the moment I enquired with Castlemartyr they went above and beyond to ensure everything was attended to promptly despite the time difference and being so far away. Jackie Day was our wedding coordinator and she couldn't have been more accommodating if she tried. The whole planning process was smooth and easy. She was helpful, attentive and nothing was ever too much trouble. We had people pull out of the wedding the day before the big day which meant we had to change the table plan at the very last minute (7.30pm the night before the wedding) and Jackie was extremely understanding and made sure the final arrangements were attended to without any hassle. The big day itself was everything and more anyone could ever dream of and that was down to the venue. The staff and venue itself are exquisite.

I wish there was a 10 star option because that's what the Jackie and the staff at Castlemartyr deserve for our wedding! Having been to a few weddings since it has done nothing but confirm how fantastic the service was from start to finish. Including all arrangements in the run up to our big day, the days before, the actual day and the days after, nothing was too much trouble and they thought of little extras that would never have occurred to me! Extra special thanks to Jackie our coordinator who was always available to chat to regarding even the smallest details and we would also like to extend our thanks to Kay the catering manager too, I have no idea when she sleeps as it felt like she was available to help us 24/7! Even our guests commented on how well the wedding breakfast was run, one guest who isn't a fan of desserts requested a little cheese at the end of the meal; within minutes an entire cheese board had appeared at his table! The service was simply excellent. I would encourage anyone who is considering Castlemartyr as a venue to book it right now!

Castlemartyr is such a wonderful venue and we enjoyed every minute of our wedding here! Just a short drive from Cork city but you feel like you are a million miles away. The grounds are beautiful and perfect for photographs on the day which allowed us to maximise our time at the drinks reception mingling with our guests. All the staff were wonderful to deal with in both the build up and on the day. Special mentions to Danielle, Elaine, Trevor and Kay! Food was also delicious. Couldn't recommend this venue more!

Dream Wedding Venue! Scenic grounds, friendly & welcoming staff, attention to every detail, and superb food! We especially want to thank our wedding coordinator, Jackie Day, and all the staff at Castlemartyr for making our wedding day so special. They couldn't have been more accommodating from the outset, and went over and above to ensure that everything was perfect on the day. Our guests enjoyed themselves immensely, and were blown away by the quality of the 'unreal' food, the quality of service and the venue itself. We had the most wonderful day, and we highly recommend Castlemartyr as a dream venue for your wedding day.

We chose Castlemartyr Resort for our wedding as it met all the Criteria we were looking for; amazing grounds for photo opportunities, indoor and outdoor options for wedding drinks reception, stunning ballroom, spacious rooms, beautiful decor, top class service and of course a golf course! When we started our wedding venue hunt, near the top of the checklist was that the venue needed have options for self catering as over 50% of our wedding guests were travelling from abroad. This meant that guests could stay for a whole weekend and enjoy a trip away. The self catering lodges were great value for money and all our guests commented how happy they were with the accomodation options. From the moment we arrived the day before the wedding the staff were amazing and could not do enough for you. Everything is seamless and they accommodate any request you have with ease. Danielle was so helpful from the moment we arrived, she goes above and beyond to make sure everything is covered. Also big thanks to Kay for making sure the service at dinner and the evening reception ran perfectly. We would not hesitate to recommend Castlemartyr as a wedding venue for a weekend event!

We had such a fantastic wedding day at Castlemartyr. Jackie, Donagh, John, Barry and all the staff at Castlemartyr went out of their way to make our day. It was amazing from start to finish and everything went by without a hitch - it was perfect. The food was amazing and people still comment about it! Jackie was so helpful throughout the entire process and had wonderful ideas. Even breakfast the next morning in the private room was amazing and it was so lovely that our decorations and flowers were moved. We couldn't recommend Castlemartyr highly enough ! We can't wait to visit again soon!

3wks later and we still can't find the words to express our gratitude towards the amazing team at Castlemartyr.
We couldn't speak more highly of the venue, the staff, the food, everything!
Jackie Day and Trevor Sheehan steal the show when it comes to looking after you and ensuring every last detail is taken care of. Brendan Comerford, the general manager excels in his role and is an absolute gentleman to deal with.
We honestly can't say one bad word about our entire experience with Castlemartyr. They made planning a wedding too easy!
We look forward to staying here for many years to come....with the first trip already booked for next month!

The service was 5 star, with exceptional attention to detail. Jackie Day looked after us so well, along with the staff at Castlemartyr. The hotel went above and beyond what we expected and I couldn't recommend them enough. The staff and venue are incredible.

We chose Castlemartyr resort hotel as our wedding venue and we were so delighted with our decision. We were lucky enough to have a sunny day for our wedding so we had our ceremony outside with the ruins of a castle in the back drop!! I never thought that would be possible in Ireland but it happened! There was no stress though as the castlemartyr team had a rainy day backup plan in situ that we could have gone with too if needed. We stayed in the hotel the night before and got ready with our bridal party in one of the suites so there was no time pressure on the day. When it came to organising the wedding and the day itself the two girls Danielle and Jackie were amazing! Danielle had the day all laid out, and worried about the little but important things so we were able to totally relax and just enjoy ourselves. I couldn't recommend this venue more highly!

The most incredible venue and the most amazing team to work with. Castlemartyr Resort provided us with everything and more than we could have imagined for our wedding day. Absolute perfection.

Amazing venue, Amazing food, Amazing attention to detail, Amazing Jackie Day (our wedding Coordinator)

Castlemartyr is and always will be my favourite location in the world. The team of staff working there especially Danielle made my wedding day more magical than I could have dreamt of.

Jackie, Trevor and all the Castlemartyr team couldn't have been more helpful. On our wedding day we felt quite relaxed as we knew Jackie had everything covered. From the first day we met Jackie, the meal tasting to our wedding day Jackie was a breath of fresh air and nothing was ever too much trouble. We enjoyed every minute of our wedding planning with Jackie and we were thrilled with everything on our wedding day! We would recommend Jackie and her team to all of our friends.

Looking at the other amazing reviews on here I can see I'm yet another happy Castlemartyr bride still raving about the fanatstic experience me and my husband had on our wedding day in June 2018. The whole experience was 5 stars from start to end. We were hooked from the moment we drove up the beautiful avenue for our appointment when we were venue hunting. It's the little touches of class that make you and your husband to be feel special. Our wedding planner Jackie Day is pretty much an institution in her own right. She was superb at guiding us through the planning process and was so quick to respond to emails with helpful suggestions and solutions. The food on the day was beautiful, the wine was delicious and flowing and the staff were incredibly attentive. The late breakfast the morning after in a private room with your wedding guests is just the best idea. It was so lovely the next morning sitting at round tables reliving the night before. It makes me whistful even now thinking back on our magical weekend there. I could not imagine myself getting married anywhere else. We were back in the hotel bar for a drink recently and the bar manager recognised us and the drinks were on the house. It's these small touches that make it the venue it is. I couldn't recommend Castlemartyr enough and I can't thank them enough for giving us such a wonderful day.

A huge thank you to our wedding planner Jackie and all the team at Castlemartyr Resort, we had a fantastic wedding and we cannot thank Jackie enough. From start to finish it was an absolute pleasure to deal with Jackie and she was so helpful and supportive at every stage of our wedding planning, no ask was too big. We would also like to say a special thank you to Kay who managed the catering team during the wedding meal and our second day event, Kay ensured that everything ran according to plan.

We would highly recommend Castlemartyr Resort as a wedding venue.

The venue: it goes without saying that the grounds and interior of the hotel are stunning and provide a wonderful atmosphere for guests and a backdrop for your photos that is second to none. A second plus to the venue itself is the Capel Suite is on the complete other side of the hotel to the hotel bar - which limits the opportunities for strangers to have a nose in at your wedding. Furthermore, the residents' bar is in the Capel Suite where you've been all evening. For a wedding like ours, where a sing-song was always going to be on the cards, this had two benefits (i) we didn't lose our crowd as people were not thrown out of the ballroom and (ii) your sing-song is not disturbing the guests in the residents' bar and the guests in the residents' bar are not disturbing your sing-song - your residents' bar is exclusive to your wedding guests. Third benefit: the hotel provides a late breakfast for wedding guests until 12 noon and this breakfast is provided in a separate room which means the loud dissection of the previous day's events is kept private with your guests.
The beauty of the venue speaks for itself, however, it's the people that make your experience. From the moment we met Jackie, we knew we were in safe hands. I had been to other venues and the attitude of some wedding co-ordinators had really turned us off the venue itself. From start to finish, I could not fault the service we received from the wedding team at Castlemartyr. There truly was nothing that could not be done for us. Absolutely nothing was a problem. When we could not decide on a starter or dessert, we were given a second tasting. When I wondered how my 88-year-old grandmother would make the walk from the reception to the Capel Suite, Jackie organised a golf buggy to transport her - which she LOVED. Jackie helped us with every request to put our personal stamp on the day. Nothing we said and no idea we had was forgotten. In fact Jackie did our wedding thinking for us in the last week when our brains were over-run with all the last-minute jobs. She was also very patient with us as we agonised over details up to the day before in some instances.
The day itself was flawless. We received a warm welcome from Jackie and Brendan on arrival, the drinks reception set-up was exceptionally aesthetically pleasing with the complimentary sangria being the piece de resistance. The quality of the food was second to none. Our guests raved about dinner and the finesse with which it was served. We were looked after exceptionally well by the catering team with Kay at their helm. We were kept in the loop at all times about the beverages that we were covering which allowed us to control our budget as we saw fit. Both Jackie and Kay went above and beyond, doing little jobs that we could not get around to ourselves as we were enjoying the day with our guests.
A lot of couples don't realise until the day after the wedding that the logistics of the wedding continue the day after. At 4am in the morning, Kayleigh was present collecting, according to her list, every little bit of the decor which we had provided. Everything belonging to us was packed carefully and gathered in a little room which allowed for a smooth check-out with no running around looking for everything. The porters treated our belongings with care and made as many trips as were necessary to help us pack up our car. Our flowers had been kept to adorn the private breakfast room and were available for us to distribute to guests as we wished.
Separate from the wedding itself, staying in the hotel was an absolute pleasure. Not one member of staff could be faulted, they were each and every one a joy. On check-out, somebody stopped what they were doing to ask if they could help me with bags. I honestly can't praise the hotel staff highly enough. It was from the moment we arrived, what can only be described as a wonderful experience.
There are presumably weddings taking place at the Resort two to three times a week and this shows in the experience and professionalism of the staff in the planning and preparation of the day. However, on the day, we were made to feel as though we were the only couple who had ever got married here, the sole focus. We are so glad to live near the resort so that we can come and relive our wonderful memories whenever the mood takes us!

Castlemartyr Resort was a wonderful wedding venue. We and our guests had a wonderful weekend. The staff took such great care of us. We really appreciated this as it made our special day that more special. Thanks!

We had our wedding last month in Castlemartyr and I can only say that they were exceptional. Jackie Day is the wedding coorindator that we dealt with and she is absolutely fantastic.
I really would recommend Castlemartyr as a wedding venue.

We would highly recommend Castlemartyr having had our wedding there earlier this year. Sian and the team were absolutely amazing and so professional throughout the entire process. The venue itself it absolutely beautiful and ideal if you would like your guests to have the option to stay onsite and have the full day under one roof. The food is absolutely delicious and plenty of it. The staff really went over and above to make sure everything ran smoothly and really think of everything. We also really loved having a private breakfast in the hotel the following morning for any guests in the hotel. Thanks again!

Stunning venue, top class service, amazing staff, couldn't have asked for better.

Our experience with Castlemartyr resort was very positive, we found their staff very helpful and supportive as we organised our wedding from abroad. They were at hand with advise and guidance when we needed it. They were flexible when it came it our tasting as our availability was so limited. The whole experience was very personal and tailored. I can't recommend this hotel more, the quality of the food and service are certainly five star.

The staff and venue were incredible. Everyone was very friendly and my every request was taken care of. They were very easy to deal with through the entire planning process.

We had our wedding here on the 28th October 2017. On the day, our wedding co-ordinator Leila went above and beyond to ensure that we had as perfect a day as possible. Castlemartyr is a stunning venue and the hotel really knows how to make the most of its surroundings! We were fortunate enough to have beautiful weather so the drinks reception was set up in the middle of the outside and indoor areas. The drinks reception was fabulous and feedback from guests was that the drinks kept flowing and the canapés were refreshed frequently. The Capel Suite itself is a gorgeous room and Castlemartyr have new carpets and chairs which makes the room even more beautiful. The room itself has a very relaxed atmosphere which made speeches, etc., a lot less daunting. The food on the day was fantastic and again we received a lot of compliments about the quality and quantity of food! The late breakfast for guests in the morning in a private room is a wonderful idea and allows the bride and groom to get around to any guests they may have missed the day before! The guest rooms are beautiful as well. All in all, I would really rate Castlemartyr as a wedding hotel and a hotel in general! I am very much looking forward to returning for our one year anniversary!!

We were planning our wedding from Vancouver. While home for an unexpected trip we decided to stop by some hotels to have a look around and get a feel for where might be a good venue for us.
From the 1st day we set foot in Castlemartyr we were greeted with a warm welcome, just hoping to have a look around and the porters happily obliged. Jackie Day our wedding coordinator, had clients, but promised a swift follow up, and sure enough a few hours later we had an email from her with details of how the wedding process works in Castlemartyr and an offer to contact us via phone for any questions.

Planning a wedding from afar, this is the kind of service you are looking for, someone who follows up when they say they will and provides help and support on best practices and great local suppliers.

The day itself was incredible, we were able to move the drinks reception to the outside as it was a stunning day, the arrival welcome was flawless, and our guests felt well looked after and had plenty of food and drinks to keep them entertained. I had not arranged music for this portion, but at the last hour decided we wanted someone and Jackie arranged a local Pianist to come and play for the reception. It was perfect background, mingling music. We had a team of staff ready to assist as needed, extra plates of food waiting for us after we arrived, so we would not go hungry, we got a sneak peek at the chapel suite, and whisked away for a quiet drink by ourselves, so we could get a half hour to ourselves during the day.

Dinner was incredible, the staff did a wonderful job setting us up for our arrival walk in, the catering for a large number of vegetarians / Coeliac's. Everything was labelled appropriately and all of the guests commented on how great the food was.
Our only piece of feedback was after the desert, the transition from dinner to evening could have been a bit smoother. My husband and myself had to run around a bit to get some pieces sorted as the staff available were unsure of what to do, I think the day had run a half hour late (our fault due to pictures), so perhaps the duty manager had finished and the banqueting team were unsure of transition process.

Other than that, the venue was great for a smaller wedding (we had 92) and the room still felt full when the dancing started. There was lovely evening fayre food brought on around 11.30pm, and having the residents bar in the suite was great as it kept everyone together. One of the best bits was the morning after we had a dedicated breakfast room, where all the guests gathered until 12pm and talked about the wedding, it was so relaxed and a wonderful way to spend the next morning.

We thought the team there did an incredible job, we would highly recommend the venue as it is spectacular and the staff were so friendly and polite. All our guests commented on how this was one of the best wedding venues they had ever been too for food, staff and location.

Spectacular! From start to finish they were exceptional. We organised the wedding from outside Ireland, our co-ordinator was super responsive by email. On the day and afterwards we had countless guests telling us how fabulous the service was - one of the staff even loaned one of our guests his tie! Another friend had an early flight to catch and the staff arranged a car from door to door. Fantastic service, amazing staff, delicious food and a beautiful venue.

Could not say enough about Castlemartyr, from start to finish they were exceptional. We organised the wedding from outside Ireland, our co-ordinator was super responsive by email.

Another friend had an early flight to catch and the staff arranged a car from door to door. Fantastic service, amazing staff, delicious food and a beautiful venue.

We had our wedding in Sep 2017 and we can't thank all of the staff at castlemartyr enough for helping us planning our special day.

From the planning process to the wedding day, our wedding coordinator Jackie day made everything go smoothly was very accommodating and on hand to answer any questions big/small any time of day which put our mind at ease throughout the planning.

We enjoyed a family meal in franchinis the night before and the staff were very friendly and accommodating, everyone loved the food.

All of our guests truly enjoyed their stay and felt very welcomed over the 3 days.
It was also a bonus that the hotel is Dog friendly so we could bring our dog with us and not have to leave him in kennels for the few days. The Dog rooms are perfect just beside the capel suite so we could check on him during the night they also have a little garden off them to bring them out.

The Capel suite is truly beautiful and the food was perfect.
We had afternoon tea the day after for guests who may be travelling home that day and we under estimated our numbers and the hotel were so accommodating in organizing extra seating for our guests with no hassle.

The Hotel and the grounds are just stunning you can't fault rain or shine.
Thank you again to Jackie and all the staff .
We had such a great day and weekend, We cannot wait to come back for our anniversary stay.
If you are looking for a wedding venue the castlemartyr is in a world of its own and you will not regret it.

We had the most amazing experience in Castlemartyr, every time we visited before the wedding everyone was so friendly and by the time it came I felt like it was my second home.Our suite was stunning and all our guests commented on the beautiful rooms and food. The wedding breakfast the next morning added another special memory , it was so nice to get everyone together agian!! Leila was outstanding, so calm, helpful and just lovely. We will always hold Castlemartyr close to our hearts and cant wait to come back next year for our anniversary. Thank you x

From the first day we arrived at The Castlemartyr, 6 months before our wedding (with no appointment), Trevor dropped everything and made us feel we were the only people in the hotel. It's like you're in a bubble there. Sian helped us with all the decisions for our day, no request too big. She's very patient and extremely professional. On the day, Kay stepped up and was like my mother for the day. She was constantly making sure we were ok. All my guests were very happy with the service and food was amazing. One of my guests had attended 3 weddings this year and all in 5 star hotels in Cork. She said this was by far the best one. The Castlemartyr is a home away from home and you always fell part of the family there.

We cannot thank Jackie Day and her Team enough for all their care and attention during the planning of our Wedding.

CastleMartyr is a very special place which captures the intimacy of a wedding day perfectly.

Our guests haven't stop complimenting the Hotel and speaking glowingly since. I would truly recommend CastleMartyr to anybody considering planning their wedding day.

Cant speak highly enough of the venue truly amazing Hotel and Wedding Team.

From our first meeting with Jackie and Trevor upon deciding to book the Castlemartyr Resort, the attention and care they showed to us were exemplary. Jackie (our Wedding Planner) went above and beyond to accommodate our vision of the perfect day, from organizing a projector for our entrance, to ensuring the elder members of the party were transported from the reception area down to the banquet hall. She was constantly on hand if any issues (which were a rarity) emerged and was the transparency of organization was a pleasure to deal with. Trevor, the Guest Relations Manager, was on hand throughout the process to ensure any unforeseen concerns or requests we had were dealt with as soon as they arose. The attention to detail both displayed were a credit to Castlemaryr as a whole.

The grounds make a phenomenal setting for wedding backdrop photographs, and while we were having our photos taken, our guests were able to relax outside in the sunshine with live music. The menu selection was fantastic, and the function hall was spacious, with excellent service again throughout the various courses.

All in all, a fantastic wedding location selection for any couple thinking of booking a venue.

Couldn't fault a single aspect of the experience. Professional service, great food and fantastic surroundings.

Jackie and the team in Castlemartyr made our wedding day incredibly special. It was flawless from start to finish. We cannot thank Jackie enough for making the planning process so stress free. Jackie thought of everything and we always knew that we were in such good hands.
The day was seamless from our arrival to departure, every single detail was looked after and we were really able to relax and enjoy every minute of the day. Kay was also fantastic and ensured that the dinner and evening went perfectly. The food and service was amazing, also the accommodation for our guests as well as our bridal suite was out of this world. I highly recommend Castlemartyr Resort, it is a stunning wedding venue with fantastic staff.

Castlemartyr Resort Hotel gave us the wedding we've always dreamed of. From the first enquiry to the moment we checked out, the management and staff tailored to our every need. We can only thank them from the bottom of our hearts and would highly recommend them your special day.

Pure Magic. Those are the only two words we can use to describe our experience working with Jackie and her team at Castlemartyr to create the perfect environment for all of our friends and relatives from around the world who gathered in Ireland for our three-day wedding celebration. From arrival to departure, every single detail was looked after. We spent a year and a half planning our special weekend, which was made just a tad more challenging since we live in NYC, and Jackie was there every step of the way...often times answering our frantic emails at off-hours and on weekends. She was always prompt to reply and offer her own creative ideas and suggestions. Jackie and her team worked with all of our vendors to make sure that everything during the celebrations ran smoothly. When my mother's luggage was lost by the airline, Jackie's team jumped into action and set us up with a tailor who worked through the night on tailoring an off-the-rack gown she purchased in Cork the afternoon before the wedding! When one of our guests forgot his tuxedo shoes, one person on Jackie's team, offered them his! We can't sing the team enough praises. My husband and I have traveled extensively around the world and the level of service that Jackie's team provided was above and beyond what we've experienced at some of the best hotels and resorts. Thank you Jackie, Trevor and Kay. We can't wait to visit Castlemartyr again soon!

We had our wedding here July 2017 and the hotel were so accommodating! Would recommend to anyone thinking of booking! They made our day so special!

Five star resort, five star people and five star wedding ? our wedding was absolutely perfect, and we could not be more grateful to the team at Castlemartyr for everything they did to make it so. Castlemartyr was the perfect venue and all our guests are (still!) raving about the resort, the rooms, the food and the staff ? it really was a spectacular weekend.

We feel like Castlemartyr not only met our (admittedly, very high!) expectations, but exceeded them at every possible opportunity. There are so many little things that made the day and weekend so special - a few details in particular really spring to mind:

(i) The lovely table arrangement that was set up by Jackie for Grace and her bridesmaids? lunch on the day before.
(ii) The London cab (and Trevor's performance and costume!) to take us to the church.
(iii) The champagne and treats sent to the bridal suite on Saturday morning.
(iv) The special send-off the whole team gave Grace and her parents on the way to the church.
(v) Our own personal "Dom Perignon" waiter.
(vi) Kay's attentiveness during the meal, constantly checking we were ok and even adorning Grace with a bib to protect her dress!
(vii) Setting up a piano for Jeremy's "special" performance.
(viii) The way in which the cheese and Tayto carts were so beautifully set out.
(ix) The sandwiches kindly provided in the Knights Bar on Sunday night which were very well received!

These are just a few of the extra touches that stand out. Suffice to say, our wedding was simply perfect and a dream come true for both of us and so much of that is down to the hard work of Jackie and her amazing team at Castelmartyr. We feel very lucky to have had the ?A Team? (as we call Jackie, Trevor and Kay) on our weekend! Castlemartyr is obviously an exceptional venue, but it is truly the kindness and friendliness of the people working there that make it so special.

We will never forget the weekend and we are eternally grateful to the whole team for all their hard work. We particularly want to thank Jackie because she really was the star of the show; she went above and beyond at every possible opportunity to help us in any way she could. She seemed to be on call 24/7 ? always responding to us so quickly and with such professionalism and kindness. We know that we were probably quite demanding at times (!!) and (living in Dubai) planning a wedding from abroad is no easy task, but we had 100% faith in Jackie and she really surpassed all expectations that we could ever have had. Thank you all at Castlemartyr for making our dreams come true ? we could never thank you enough and recommend Castlemartyr as a wedding venue to anyone who asks (and even those who don't!).

We are already looking forward to returning to Castlemartyr for our anniversary and hopefully we will make it back sooner than that if we are in Ireland.

Thank you again to the team at Castlemartyr for everything.

Jeremy and Grace

Spectacular venue and superb food all organised effortlessly by Jackie Day and her team. Jackie was on hand at all times to answer any queries or questions that were raised, regardless of their triviality. All our guests raved and gave praise for food, venue, politeness of staff. A first class wedding venue and hotel. We didn't even notice the rain on the day. Thanks again Jackie

We are so thankful we chose Castlemartyr for our wedding. Everything ran so smoothly and beautifully on the day. All our guests raved about how stunning the hotel, food and wine was. Jackie and her team went above and beyond to make it the best weekend for us and we look back now with the best memories of it all! We would love to do it all again with them!

Wow, what can we say... words don't even begin to explain. What a beautiful venue we couldn't of picked a better place to have our wedding! The grounds were amazing and Jackie and the team couldn't of been more accommodating throughout the whole wedding process from the moment we booked our wedding through to the wedding day itself and post arrangements for all our guests. All our guests were amazed by the beautiful venue and constantly now still tell us how fabulous the days and service were. We will certainly be going back year on year to remember our special day! Thank you again to Castlemartyr and all their team for helping us make our day extra special we cant thank you enough! Jamie and Tom Barron.

We immediately fell in love with Castlemartyr Resort. Sian, our wedding coordinator, was a dream to work with. No request was too big and she always made us feel very relaxed during our wedding planning process. All the staff oozed professionalism on our Big Day. We would highly recommend Castlemartyr Resort and are looking forward to our next stay.

My Husband and I had the pleasure of getting married in Castlemartyr Resort in June 2017 and I am so delighted we chose it as a venue for so many reasons. We currently live in Australia but chose to get married back in Ireland. For us, securing a venue and being comfortable with a team and organiser who would look after our every need from afar while keeping us informed at all times was extremely important to us. Let's just say Jackie Day and her team at Castlemartyr were second to none in this regard.

Jackie has the immense ability to make you feel you are the only Bride and Groom getting married in their venue in the year. She makes you feel uniquely special in every way. In reality I'm sure she caters for hundreds of couples over the course of the year but we never felt like we were in a larger group or in a que! Her attention to detail, professionalism, speed at responding to you, receptiveness for accepting feedback, flexibility and above all her gentle and humorous personality meant working with Jackie and her team was an absolute pleasure. She made organising a wedding from Australia a completely seamless and positive experience. I initially envisaged it to be a nightmare but was completely wrong.

Jackie's extended team were also a delight to deal with in particular Trevor at front of house, the banqueting Manager (whose name fails me) and her team. My husband and I were delighted to hear so many positive feedback and stories from our many guests, many who had travelled from afar, over the course of the weekend about how great quality the food was, the large hot portions they were served and the attentiveness of the wait staff. The size of all guest bedrooms were also very well received! Making sure our guests were well looked after was important to us so we were delighted to hear this.

Finally, the grounds in Castlemartyr speak for themselves. What better setting could you have for your wedding photos. The team at the Resort do a fantastic job at maintaining these, both inside and out, at all time to ensure they are picture perfect on the day. We are lucky to now have great memories and pictures of our day taken both inside the old Manor House, around the Castle ruins and in the gardens.

I would whole heartedly advise anyone to choose Castlemartyr as their wedding venue. If you are looking for a beautiful setting, an ?A Class? team and a uniquely special personal low stress experience then in my opinion you should look no further. I will always be grateful to Jackie and her team for giving us, our families and our friends a very special day!

We can't thank Castlemartyr enough for helping us have our perfect wedding day. We had the most wonderful stay and all our guests had a ball. Everyone felt welcomed, relaxed and spoiled for the 3 days we stayed and that's thanks to all the wonderful staff at Castlamartyr. Danielle was so helpful in the run up too and made everything go so smoothly from the minute we arrived. No request was too much and no detail was left out. If you're looking for a wedding venue that takes a lot of the stress from your planning, we couldn't recommend Castlemartyr highly enough - they've literally thought of everything. Great for the kids that attended our wedding too, with organised babysitters and a separate meal laid on. It meant the adults could relax and the kids had an amazing time.

We have so many great memories of the whole weekend and can't wait to come back for our anniversary stay. Thank you.

Heather and Fintan

We got married in the Castlemartyr resort this year. We couldn't have picked a better venue. The staff were so friendly and helpful, the food was amazing and the location and setting were beautiful. The day went off without a hitch, I could relax and fully enjoy the day knowing that everything was being well looked after in the background by all the staff. Also alot of guests stayed in the self catering houses on the grounds, and were delighted with their stay. I would highly recommend this venue for your special day

Fantastic venue! Pricey but you definitely receive 5 star service. Food was excellent. The rooms are stunning. Jackie is an amazing wedding planner. She was very prompt and accurate with things. She really helped ease the stress!

Thank you, Jackie, Trevor and Kay, for helping us to put on such a fantastic wedding at Castlemartyr. Jackie, thank you very much for co-ordinating our wedding everything was perfect from start to finish. Your attention to detail was second to none! The food and the service on the day were top class. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed themselves on the day. Thank You

Myself and my husband can't recommend Castlemartyr highly enough. We had a fantastic day. The staff were incredibly professional and accommodating. The organisation was fantastic and the day ran smoothly without any problems. Jackie was our wedding coordinator and she was extremely friendly, helpful and a pleasure to work with. On top of that the both the venue and food were absolutley amazing.

Castlemartyr is set in a stunning location and absolutely lived up to all of our expectations. To say that the staff are helpful is a massive understatement. From our initial meeting with the amazing Jackie to our check out after the wedding everything went perfectly for us. Every single staff member we dealt with could not have been more helpful and engaging. Any requests or questions we had were dealt with in a very professional and friendly manner. The venue itself is beautiful and the attentiveness of the staff really enhanced this. We could not recommend Castlemartyr highly enough as everything was perfect for us and everything was made as easy as possible for us both in the run up to the wedding and also on the day itself.

Special mention has to be made for Jackie Day our wonderful wedding co-ordinator. Jackie could not have been more positive and helpful if she tried and was a joy to work with throughout the planning process.

From the moment we checked in your team couldn't have been more obliging and the courtesy and professionalism they offered us and our guests and suppliers was sublime.

There are a few individuals that really stood out and we would be grateful if you could please pass on our thanks to them:

Leeann - at the front desk, smiled from start to finish and I am sure was sick of the sight of us by the time we departed. Any guest information we needed was no problem and taxis, flowers etc were organised within minutes. On Friday she really impressed me as I sat and watched the amount of guests she was processing through the resort single handedly like it was second nature.

Jason- Porter Staff. Jason escorted a mountain of luggage, wine, props etc from last Monday when we began to move in to the resort. He must have covered a lot of mileage up and down those corridors over the weekend escorting us and our guests luggage. Nothing was a problem and whenever he spotted us he jumped straight in to help.

Lucia - In Franchini's. Lucia looked after us for dinner on the Thursday night and again served Sarah and I on the Monday evening as it was all coming to an end. Her Professionalism and Friendly Service was exquisite and although she will agree I was probably a pain, requesting different wines, changing meals etc. it was done effortlessly. She is a credit to the restaurant and we look forward to hearing how she got on on her Portugal holiday when we return.

Khan - In the Bar. Khan explained how he was relatively new to the resort, and looked after our drinks and singlehandedly served us on the Sunday when we sat in the living room with our remaining friends and family. Nothing was an issue and he ensured all guests were topped up at all times. We never had to go looking for anything and when serving so many guests he never once had to be reminded of our drink order. He made sure Grey Goose and Hendricks were on ice at all times. I have no doubt he will go far in the resort.

Danielle - Wedding Coordinator. Danielle was a pleasure to work with. From our very first encounter 1 week after we got engaged right up to her lovely email earlier today. A true credit to the resort. We began making a wedding destination short list in April last year and Castlemartytr was only the second hotel we visited. We weren't through the front door when we knew that was it, here is where the wedding was to be. From the emails to the several trips we made throughout 2016 and earlier this year nothing was a problem and any concerns we raised were quickly sorted and put to bed. We look forward to meeting her again when we return.

Kay - Manager. Our first encounter of Kay was Friday as she was frantically running around the Caple Suite ensuring all details were covered. On the Saturday she was there from start to finish ensuring all the guests were looked after and the top table was served to perfection. On Sunday, she could not have been more supportive as we requested last minute a casual meal for 30 guests. No stone was unturned and I am sure the kitchen were cursing her and us. Mother's Day all restaurants full, Large tours checking in and still Kay had us sorted within 30 minutes. The living room a perfect venue and we were able to sit and reflect on the night before until the early hours of Monday uninterrupted. A True Professional who we will never forget.

Trevor - Manager. Trevor came to find us in the garden as we were enjoying our first glass of wine on Thursday. Never before has a hotel manager made a more special and lasting impression. He happily shared his mobile number and told us to call day or night if we had any questions, queries or just needed to talk things through. For the entire weekend he ensured everything was in order and anytime any the the wedding party past him he took a few minutes to gain feedback and ensure we were happy. Room lighting problems were sorted by him personally on Monday evening and he even found the time to join us on our last night for a cup of tea to hear any feedback we had. We will be sure to make him aware in advance the next time we visit and hopefully will be able to enjoy a drink with him again.

The above is only the tip of the iceberg and we hope we will pass on our thanks to the rest of your team. From the Spa, Housekeeping, Maintenance, Banqueting, Restaurant, Reservations etc. no body could truly have done any more for us.

The only constructive feedback I can share from the weekend, is the air conditioning in the Caple Suite should be relooked at as no matter how many times your team tried there was only two settings on or off and it was impossible to maintain one temperature. However, that fades into insignificance as for us the weekend could have not been more perfect.

The Castlemartyr Resort, has become a truly special resort for us and we look forward to returning for the many years ahead.

we planned our wedding from London but knew from the start we were going to have the reception at the Castlemartyr resort following a family gathering a few weeks previous. We were not disappointed. When we spoke to Trevor and told him of our plans to get married at 10am in London then fly with our guests from Heathrow to Cork on the 14.05 flight to our reception. He said they had not done this before but there would not be a problem. Danielle, Kay and their team went above and beyond to ensure everything went smoothly from the start. The day itself was amazing flights left on time we were met by Trevor at the airport and taken directly to the hotel where the drinks reception was well under way in the main bar. The garden room was perfect for our evening followed by a late night supper in the library. Late breakfast the following morning was greatly appreciated by everyone. Our London guests were very impressed with the friendliness of all the staff, location, venue, service,accommodation and quality of food. We would highly recommend Castlemartyr as a 5star wedding venue in Ireland. We have already booked a return visit for our first anniversary and some of our wedding guests are also joining us. Thank you to all involved for helping us have the most magical time.

Thank you Danielle and Kay for helping us to put on such a fantastic wedding at Castlemartyr. Danielle, thank you very much for co-ordinating our wedding with such thoroughness and efficiency from beginning to end. We were extremely happy with the superb quality of food and the good pace of service throughout our wedding dinner. All staff were attentive and helped to ensure a smooth running of the day. And our guests had a fantastic time. Thank you.

We are delighted that we chose Castlemartyr as our wedding venue.
Jackie Day was outstanding to deal with from the outset, by responding to all questions, giving good advice and and ensuring that we were well-organised in the lead up to, and on, the day.

The beautiful interior and lovely grounds provided a wonderful setting, but was made even more special by the warm hospitality of all of the staff at Castlemartyr. All of the team were helpful and friendly over the course of the days that we stayed in the resort.

Guests were very complimentary of the food and service, and the high standard of accommodation.

Thank you to all of the team at Castlemartyr, and we look forward to seeing you again in the future.

From the moment we contacted Castlemartyr resort by email the service and care we received from the staff was amazing. The venue itself is obviously spectacular, the grounds and views are amazing, but what made our special day so outstanding was the care and attention every member of staff showed us from the first minute to the last. I cannot compliment them highly enough. Our wedding coordinator was incredible, she helped us with the day guiding us through with professionalism and care. I cannot recommend the venue and the staff highly enough. I wish we were getting married there again tomorrow! Simply outstanding

We could not recommend Castlemartyr Resort highly enough. Jackie Day and Trevor Sheehan were an absolute pleasure to deal with and went above and beyond for us. The hotel itself is spectacular, the food was delicious and the service was top quality.

The experience on the day was fantastic and we got feedback from a lot of family and friends that they really enjoyed the day.

We got married in Castlematyr Resort last August and we could not have asked for a better hotel and staff. The day went off seamlessly and during our stay we were made to feel very much at home, I know my wife was very impressed with how organised they were and it took a lot of stress in the lead up to the big day.
Jackie Day was an excellent coordinator and would highly recommend the place to anybody for their big day.

Planning a wedding comes with many stresses and the job is an even bigger task when you are organising a wedding abroad. Castlemartyr Resort was our first choice of venue and from the moment we saw it, we knew it was perfect for our wedding. We had to make some last minute changes to our wedding 48 hours before the wedding. We were due to get married in a church, however, due to an injury, everything had to change at the last minute. The wedding executive, alongside her team, worked hard over the hours leading up to our wedding to make everything perfect. The staff here are professional, friendly and so helpful. They created the perfect day for us and our guests and without a doubt our wedding will be one remembered by everyone that attended for years to come.

Everything from start to finish from the hotel was amazing. We live in the US but Jackie Day eliminated and made easy everything that goes with planning a wedding from abroad, Jackie is amazing and we are so grateful for all her help. The entire staff at the hotel went out of their way the entire weekend to make our wedding day special and to make sure everything went according to plan. All our visitors from the US were blown away by the service and hospitality.

We loved everything about our wedding weekend at Castlemartyr! The service was fantastic from start to finish. Danielle was superb as our wedding planner and all of the staff could not do enough for us and our guests on the day. The venue is so special and we were super lucky with the weather so we got the full value of the beautiful gardens during our drinks reception. We have received so many compliments from all of our guests about Castlemartyr, they all felt like they had a mini luxury holiday! It was above and beyond our expectations and Castlemartyr will always be a very special place for us.

We had a great day. The weather was great so we had our reception outside. We were dealing with Danielle, she was great very responsive and always accommodating any requests we had.
The atmosphere was great the food was great cannot recommend it highly enough.

Being a photographer, we are here quite often during the year and find the Hotel Staff very professional, helpful and provide an excellent service. We have also being here as guests at my cousins wedding. We enjoyed it so much that we took our families back for our daughters Confirmation. While working with The Wedding Journey Magazine, Castlemartyr was chosen for a location shoot to exhibit companies from all over Munster. Beautiful location with amazing settings for photographs.

Amazing venue, amazing having Jackie Day looking after us for the day !

From the moment we made contact with Castlemartyr, we knew that this was a special place. We had heard many reviews from people about how amazing the grounds and hotel were, however, once we started emailing Jackie, the wedding coordinator, we realised how amazing the staff were. We live in New Zealand, so it was very important to us to be able to deal with someone both professional and understanding of our situation, being so far away from the venue and Ireland.

Jackie made the whole process so easy, sending up to date run sheets with the days activites, along with suggestions for nearby churches, accommodation, suppliers, etc. We were able to do our menu tasting about 9 months before the wedding and this plus the accommodation was amazing. We knew then for sure that we had made the right choice.

On the day of the wedding we couldn't have asked for better weather, which really made the day for us, as it meant we were able to avail of the beautiful grounds for our drinks reception and pictures. The drinks and canepes were flowing, with everyone feeling like they were being well looked after by the staff; they were really attentive with all of our guests.

Once dinner was called Terrance the reception manager took over and again looked after everything with a great air of professionalism, even staying past his shift to stay and listen to the band.

Jackie, Terance and all of the staff were just wonderful, extremely professional and so pleasent whenever we were dealing with them, even when just passing in the hall way.

Definitely a 5 star experience.

The hotel and staff were great for the whole weekend. Would highly recommend them. We would also recommend SOSAC photgraphy and Bloomsday Flowers.

We had a great time.

Working in hospitality, we were both very picky about what we wanted for our wedding but from the very beginning we knew that Castlemartyr was the place for us! Their attention to detail and level of service are second to none. They thought of everything and were very helpful in the run up to the wedding. On the day itself the service was excellent and felt very effortless-creating a really nice relaxing atmosphere on the day. The quality of food is excellent and I had guests tell me it was the best food they had ever had which was lovely. About 40mins before the ceremony was due to start I discovered that the hem on my dress hadn't been taken up as it was supposed to have done, resulting in my bridesmaids frantically asking reception for all the sewing kits they could give us, unbeknowst to us they called out a local seamstress to help us. That's the thing about Castlemartyr -their staff will do everything they can to make your day perfect and that's what makes them truly exceptional.

Castlemartyr is an amazing venue. We had a brilliant wedding and the staff went above and beyond in many ways. We had a freak storm in the days leading up to the wedding which resulted in flooding that the local area has not seen for 50 years. The staff found a passable, i.e. non flooded route to the church which resulted in 80% of our guests making it. They had also a plan B arranged in case it didnt work out with another church. Long story short, brilliant service, brilliant resort and would recommend to all.

Absolutely amazing amazing amazing from start to finish! Best weekend of our lives... From the service, the food the ambiance right through to the rooms everything was top class. We had a second night in the Kiltha Suite with dancing in the golf club and again everything was done to perfection. Cannot recommend Castlemartyr enough for a wedding!

I cannot recommend Castlemartyr enough- from Mgtm to Service staff everyone was so professional and welcoming to us and our guests- everyone commented on the service and the highest of standards that are given to us from arrival to departure.

We had the most spectacular day of our life's
Everybody in Castlemartyr were terrific nothing was to much trouble for them
The quality of the service was a lot more than 5 star
Everyone of the staff are brilliant
Castlemartyr Resort should be the destination for every Bride & Groom nobody will be disappointed

Brilliant

A lot more than we could have hoped for...

From the day we saw the resort to the day of the wedding, Jackie Day was in contact with us and facilitated any changes or ideas we came up with. The weather was perfect on the day of the wedding and this worked out fantastic for photos and guests sitting outside in the sunshine. We had a horse drawn carriage on the day and when we were finished with it Roy Daly took the guests on trips around the resort and everyone really enjoyed it. Everything about the day was perfect and would recommend Castlemartyr Resort because everything about the day was perfect, the venue, the staff, the food and help we received along the way from Jackie Day.

The Castlemartyr Hotel is a 5 star hotel- and we definitely received 5 star service from Jackie and her team. Our friends and family were absolutely bowled over by the staff at the Castlemartyr- in the lead up to the wedding, during the wedding and after. Everybody was made to feel so welcome (including our younger guests- our nephew being completely fussed over by the staff and being given his very own Castlemartyr teddy bear and how helpful Jackie was with arrangements for my sister who has special needs). So many of our guests commented that it was the best hotel they had ever stayed in and they couldn't wait to go back! The extra touches and the attention to detail from Jackie and her staff were extraordinary. The food was absolutely sublime and the ballroom provides an absolutely amazing setting. For 2 people who were dreading the thought of a big celebration and were full of nerves- we both actually said we would do it all over again due to the wonderful experience we received from Jackie and the team at The Castlemartyr Hotel.
Added to this is that we feel absolutely blessed to have had Jackie Day as our wedding co-ordinator for our big day. From our first meeting in September 2014, she was so professional, approachable and warm. We knew straight away we loved the venue but she was also by far the best wedding co-ordinator we had come across. Her organisational skills are flawless; she is unbelievably efficient and her experience and dedication to her role was exemplary. Jackie has real passion for her job and is so personable with people. She went above and beyond the call of duty in helping us prepare for our wedding and make it such a special day for us and our guests. We had some quite particular requests and obviously had a lot to organise- considering we were planning our wedding from another country! Yet nothing was too big a job- even though there were weddings taking place either side of ours. She organised printed labels and envelopes for some advice slips we wanted placed on all tables; she arranged for the cutlery to be burnished especially before our wedding and new candles in the candelabras; she arranged for croissants and champagne to be delivered to one of the lodges I was staying in on the morning of the wedding; she was so accommodating with any last minute changes and requests. She honestly was more like a big sister and I honestly don't know how we would have organised everything without her.

Beautiful venue, great food, perfect service! Organising its was easy and pleasant. Service impeccable and Everything ran smoothly on the day. There is not much room for negotiation but I wouldn't have pick anywhere else for our big day. The only thing I suggest is not to use the dry cleaning service they suggest for wedding dresses - lucky I only had the bad experience after the celebration.

Castlemartyr Resort is a stunning resort in a beautiful part of Cork.
The staff were truly fantastic on the run of to our wedding and on the day itself.
All our guests commented on the quality of the food-it really was top quality.
You want to enjoy your wedding day and not stress about anything and the staff at Castlemartyr certainly allowed us totally relax and not worry about a thing.
I would recommend Castlemartyr to anyone getting married-you will not get better anywhere else.

I got married in the wonderful Castlemartyr Resort last year in June. I planned my entire wedding for Melbourne, Australia and to say that my wedding went off without a hitch was an understatement. The team at Castlemartyr were absolutely fantastic. We were assigned a wedding planner/co-ordinator Sian James and she made my life so much easier and made the entire planning for our wedding from half way across the world seamless. Her attention to detail and her interaction with me throughout the wedding planning put me completely at ease about every aspect of the wedding. I can not thank her enough.

Everything about Castlemartyr was amazing, we travelled from Melbourne with 60 of our 105 guests coming from Australia with most people either staying in the hotel or the self catering houses on the resort. I am from Cork and my husband is from Melbourne, we did visit Castlemartyr before booking but only once so everything was organised online.

Castlemartyr is truly a fantastic resort, the atmosphere, the grounds, all the staff, the food and service are top class - thanks for the memories x

Jackie Day did a fantastic job helping us prepare for our special day. She really helped to add some special touches to the day. The hotel did a great job, we got engaged there too and have stayed on a number of occasions....Castlematry is perfect.

A dream venue and location, with staff that genuinely want and wish the very best for you on your special day

Castlemartyr is a fantastic wedding venue - beautiful location, great food and incredible staff. Jackie, our wedding coordinator, could not have been more helpful and made organising a wedding very easy for us!

Castlemartyr was perfection in every way. From our first meeting with our wedding planner Jackie Day right up until we left the day after our wedding. We couldn't have asked for more

Amazing wedding venue and first class service. Jackie and the team went over and above to accommodate all our needs and I would highly recommend Castlemartyr as a wedding venue. Everything went smooth on the day even though we were an hour late to reception due to an accident on the way to the hotel. We were made to feel like the most important people for the whole weekend. We had a BBQ the next day in the golf club and once again the service and staff were first class.

A perfect place to get married. Jackie made sure everything was perferct so we could relax and enjoy the day fully.

Jackie Day was stellar. No other word to describe her. Ever professional and responsive, she covered all of the details and was able to plan everything and assist with vendors as we were planning our wedding from New York. On the day, I even received a manicure on the house in my suite when someone heard the polish was smeared. I cannot say enough about the professional staff, the gorgeous meal, and how elegant the venue was that day. Still getting compliments two years later!

We had the most amazing day on Saturday. We couldn't have been happier with Castlemartyr. The food was just top notch. The staff were extremely nice and attentive at all times. The champagne and wine were flowing and we have received great feedback from all our guests. The sun came out so this enabled everyone to enjoy the beautiful gardens which are so impressive. The children were kept entertained playing croquet and ball. The function room itself was exquisite. Although we had a lot of guests, we felt everyone was comfortable.

Jackie thanks so much from Kevin and I. We really thought the day was incredible and are so delighted with how everything went. Please pass on our thanks to all the waiting staff and in particular, the chef. He did an amazing job.

Talk to you soon,

August 2014
I am sure you are busy with a wedding today but we just wanted to say a huge thank you to you and your team. You were all brilliant. We absolutely loved every minute of our day and choosing castlemartyr was definitely the best decision we made in terms of organising the wedding.

We are already excited about our return visit next year.

We will definitely be in to visit in the meantime for lunch/dinner and drinks as we cant get enough of the place.

Thank you again for all your hard work. You were so meticulous and organised and made the planning so easy.

Best Wishes

Finally, a most sincere thank you for all your help along the way we had a fantastic wedding and lovely relaxing day on Sunday.
Can you also thank all of the staff, Barry, Clare, Trevor, Martin etc,etc, so many more whose names I don't know, they all did a fantastic job.
Again, please thank Brian for a wonderfully well run Resort, he should be very proud.
The newly married couple are in situ in Hotel Europe in Killarney enjoying the wind down.

Looking forward to seeing you in the future.

Kind regards,

I am writing on behalf of Marie and myself to thank you, Barry, Clare,
Cathal, Trevor, Martin and those members of staff whose names we don't know
but who contributed enormously to make Gemma and Ian's wedding day a most
memorable one.

We feel privileged to have had the benefit of your services in the overall
planning and execution of their most perfect day, something we will always
treasure.
The professionalism of the entire team in ensuring that nothing was to big
to ask for and their courtesy was exemplary.

From the moment of the newly married couples arrival, to their departure
was something to behold. I am only sorry that we don't have the opportunity
to have another fantastic wedding reception there as that was our last
daughter to get married, our other daughters wedding was also held there
last year, this made our decision to have Gemma's wedding there very easy.

Finally, our thanks to Brian O' Herlihy who responded to our request. Brian
should be very proud of the entire team at the Resort and we wish all of
you the very best for the future.
We would also highly recommend your venue to any family or couples who are
planning a wedding celebration.

Kind regards,

We are back in Dublin packing up to go on honeymoon tomorrow. Before we left I wanted to send you a quick note to thank you again and to all the staff for making our wedding day so lovely and enjoyable. We truly couldn't have asked for it to go any better. We were very sad leaving the hotel after such an amazing stay. Everyone said how great the food and the service was.

I will send on some photos that you may be interested in when we get them in a few months time I'm presuming.

Thanks again Jackie for everything :-)

Hope you have a lovely summer

Now that the dust has settled and normality returned, I would like to express my personal thanks and satisfaction with the Wedding Reception on 20th June and our two day stay in Castlemartyr.

Everything went off so well - mind you, we were doubly blessed in having such a beautiful weekend. One just has to take whatever weather comes, but having a fine sunny day does make such a difference.

Anyway, back to Castlemartyr. You could not have done more for Aoife and Brian and I know they enjoyed their day and were able to relax completely while knowing that the excellent staff were absolutely on top of everything. We all enjoyed ourselves. All in all, it certainly was a most memorable occasion for us. Thank you so much.

Kind regards and many thanks again.

We had our wedding at Castlemartyr resort on the 16th April 2011 and are blown away at how good the hotel and staff are. 5 star is not good enough for them, I would award them more and I say that in true honesty. We searched the UK and Ireland including K Club and Adare Manor etc and chose Castlemartyr Resort for many reasons including the overall hotel luxury, the reception room (amazing...those chandeliers!), the bedrooms which are all of the highest standard and finally and most importantly the staff - Sian the wedding coordinator is excellent. Nowhere in the world would you find better, they are a credit to Ireland's hotel industry. Attention to detail on the day in all our needs was excellent. The whole day and weekend was perfect, nothing went wrong and everyone loved it! We cannot recommend it highly enough not only for a wedding but just to see it, worth every penny (wonderful whiskey collection!!). We have so many great memories. There is a trailer of our wedding on SMART VIDEOs website which also shows the hotel. Finally, there are some beautiful churces around the location which add to the beauty. We are so happy to have chosen Castlemarty Resort, they made it perfect for us.
