Choosing Clanard Court Hotel for our wedding was one of the best decisions we made, and we will be forever grateful for the love, care and professionalism we experienced there.
From the very beginning, Emma and John made us feel completely at ease. Their kindness, patience and attention to every tiny detail meant more to us than we can put into words. They didn’t just organise our wedding — they truly cared about it. Knowing they were there allowed us to be fully present, relaxed and joyful on a day that means everything to us.
The absolute highlight of our day was the chapel. From the moment we stepped inside, it felt calm, intimate and incredibly special — it was simply perfect in every way. The setting, the atmosphere and the way everything was prepared made the ceremony deeply meaningful for us, and it is a moment we will cherish forever.
The venue itself is stunning, the gardens provided the most beautiful backdrop, and the atmosphere throughout the hotel felt warm, calm and full of happiness. The food was exceptional — guests are still talking about it — and the service was seamless from start to finish.
What stood out most was how genuinely looked after we felt. Every guest was welcomed so warmly, every moment flowed effortlessly, and nothing was ever too much trouble. Emma and John went above and beyond in ways we will never forget, and their support made our day truly magical.
We left the Clanard Court not just with incredible memories, but with full hearts. If you are considering this venue for your wedding, know that you will be placing your day in the safest, kindest hands imaginable. Thank you, Emma and John, for giving us a day we will treasure for a lifetime.

We got married in October in the Clanard.
From the 1st meeting with Emma for a chat, to every little detail & the weeks and days leading up to our Big day, every thing was all stress free thanks to Emma and the Clanard.
From a beautiful decorated Chapel, to an amazing function room, including the food and staff, it was our day we dreamed of, made even more special.
Cannot thank and recommend Emma and all the staff at the Clanard.

We had the perfect day from the day if the booking emma made everything so easy for us. On the day they couldn't do enough for us everything was perfect

From start to finish every single part big and small of our wedding was perfected in a professional way to make our wedding day unforgettable. The price in my opinion is unbeatable for the high standard of service we received. The staff were available whenever we needed help, they were also very friendly and kind. I would personally recommend this venue to anyone looking to book a place for their big day they would not be disappointed.

I don't even know where to begin, absolutely lovely establishment, staff are top Q, food is unbelievable,
Myself and my partner got married here and I honestly have not 1 fault to proclaim. We had an absolute ball .. there is a reason why this establishment have won awards, that's because of their attention to detail and their determination for excellence. Thank you all so much.
We would get married here again if we could. 😅.I speak for all the guests when I say it was an amazing day.
To all those thinking of whether to stay here or get married here, don't even waste time thinking about it, just do it!!! It will be something you will absolutely cherish for the rest of your life ... I love the location, the venue, the staff, the setup. Immaculate. Plenty of parking on site, wheelchair accessible, peaceful and serene vibes. John and Emma, special shout out to yourselves, attentive, kind, thorough, and most importantly, great craic. Thank you 😊🙏🏽...
We will see you again soon.

We recently had the incredible joy of getting married at the Clanard Court Hotel, and we truly could not have chosen a more perfect venue. From the moment we began planning Emma and John were a pleasure to work with. Their calm confidence made the whole process enjoyable and stress free. Communication throughout the whole experience was excellent and Emma checked in regularly. Everything on the day ran smoothly, from the setup in the ceremony in The Little White Chapel, to the flawless transition into the reception. The food was delicious, the service was impeccable, and the whole evening felt perfectly timed and beautifully executed. We are so grateful to Emma and John for making our dream wedding a reality. We would highly recommend the Clanard Court Hotel to any couple looking for a stress-free unforgettable wedding experience.

We had the privilege of getting married in the Clanard court hotel in August.
From our very first meet with Emma right up to checking out after the wedding we were looked after to the highest of standards. Emma, John & Eoin make a fantastic wedding team, work tremendous well together and met the needs of all our guest and us, nothing was an inconvenience.
We would 1000% recommend for newly engaged couple to check this hotel out while venue hunting.
We would love to do it all again.

What a day it was, it felt like a fairytale everything was so perfect from start to finish, if I could I'd do it over and over again and not change a single thing.
It really was the best day ever

Clanard Court Hotel amazing staff especially our wedding co ordinator Emma managers John and Eoin. from the moment we met them they where simply amazing, always went above and beyond to make our day our dream.

We had our ceremony in the little white chapel . And it was so gorgeous then we opted for a outdoor drinks reception in the garden. We where blessed with the weather.
Food drink atmosphere everything was perfect

We had the absolute pleasure of celebrating our wedding at the Clanard Court Hotel, and from start to finish, the entire experience was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we began planning, the team went above and beyond to make everything seamless, stress-free, and truly special.

Our wedding coordinator, Emma, was simply fantastic. She guided us through every step of the process with professionalism, warmth, and genuine care. No detail was too small, and her calm reassurance made us feel completely at ease. She anticipated our needs before we even voiced them and ensured the day flowed effortlessly. We couldn’t have asked for a better person to help bring our vision to life.

On the day itself, John was incredible. He was attentive, accommodating, and seemed to have everything under control in the most effortless way. From ensuring everything was perfectly set up to making sure we and our guests were comfortable, John’s dedication did not go unnoticed. He helped create an atmosphere where we could simply relax and enjoy every moment.

The venue itself is absolutely beautiful. The little white chapel provided the most romantic and intimate setting for our ceremony—it truly felt magical. Our guests were blown away by how charming and unique it was, and it created the perfect backdrop for such an important part of our day.

Throughout the celebration, the staff demonstrated outstanding service, warmth, and genuine hospitality. Every detail exceeded our expectations, from the food and atmosphere to the flawless organization. We felt so cared for, and many of our guests commented on how impressed they were with the venue and the service.

Clanard Court Hotel gave us the wedding day of our dreams. We are so grateful to Emma, John, and the entire team for making it all possible. If you are considering this hotel for your wedding, do not hesitate—it will be the best decision you make.

From the moment we booked our wedding the staff in the Clanard Court Hotel went above and beyond to make our day so special. From the drinks reception, to the meal and into the early hours of the morning the hotel facilities were top notch. Out guests commented on how fantastic the meal was and complimented the excellent service on the day. Honestly can’t fault this amazing hotel

As soon as we visited the Clanard Court and met Emma the wedding coordinator we knew we wanted to get married there. Emma's attention to detail and professionalism is incredible. She was so quick to respond to messages and she ensured that we had our dream wedding day. Emma you are an angel!

The white Chapel is a stunning ceremony venue and the secret garden is gorgeous for photographs. The kids den was an added bonus which the children absolutely loved.

John and all the staff were amazing and SO helpful. Guests were non stop talking about the amazing staff and the food!!! We couldn't have been happier with the meal. It was incredible!

The staff are a credit to the hotel and we are truly grateful to everyone that gave us the most amazing wedding day. We would highly recommend the Clanard Court Hotel as a wedding venue, you won't regret it! Thanks again, Niamh and John

Where do we start? The team at Clanard Court Hotel exceeded our expectations. From our very first meeting with Emma, we knew this was the venue for us. The staff were so welcoming when we arrived for our wedding consultation and Emma was a joy to talk with. She made everything so clear for us and it was evident how much she loves her job and the pride that she takes in it. We booked our wedding that day!
Over the next few months, Emma stayed in regular contact, asking about our plans and how everything was progressing. This was a really nice touch and made us feel cared about.
The wedding tasting was brilliant. We met the wonderful John who works closely with Emma and who was full of jokes. He has wonderful customer service skills and really made us look forward to our big day even more.
When the big day finally arrived, my husband and I were so stress free. We were beyond excited but knew we had nothing to worry about with Emma and John there. Everything ran so smoothly. Our wedding was on the hottest day of the year and we really wanted an outdoor ceremony. Emma and John ensured our guests were looked after and did not bring them outside until the last minute possible to avoid anyone getting too hot - on top of that, they also had a cool water station and sun cream available for all guests, it was a lovely touch.
The whole day went without a hitch and Emma and John made sure to check in regularly with us and our bridal party to ensure everything was ok.
Every member of staff was fantastic and made all of our guests feel welcome. We can't count the amount of compliments we received from our guests about the hotel and it's staff. They all went above and beyond.

We also had our day 2 at the hotel and were just as carefully looked after as Day 1.

Everything at the Clanard Court Hotel, from the food, the accommodation, the grounds, the restaurant, bar and staff are exemplary. If we were to do our wedding all over again, we wouldn't dream of changing the venue.

From the moment we met Emma and the team we knew were in the most capable hands to bring our wedding plans to life.
They were there the whole way with us and put our minds at ease. The venue, food and staff were all amazing and we couldn't have asked for a better day.
If we had to do it again, we'd pick Clanard Court every single time.

Was all looked after from team had no worry’s on the lead up or the day would recommend to anyone

We got married this year and hughly recommend The Clanard Court Hotel. Staff are brilliant. Food and drink spot on. Very competitive price for the package we got. Staff went above and beyond for us. 5 stars.

My wife and I cannot speak highly enough of The Clanard Court Hotel and staff. We started viewing venues for our wedding in early 2024 and nowhere really stood out for us until we met Emma and John in the Clanard Court Hotel. We initially fell in love with the gorgeous ball room with beautiful natural light spilling through the wall of windows looking out on gorgeous gardens. It was a perfect size room for what we wanted. Loads of character and personality, nothing like many of the other huge, generic wedding halls we had seen with massive high ceilings and no windows. We loved the décor and the cherry blossom trees on the tables.

Not wanting a traditional church wedding, the little chapel on sight was such a gorgeous place for us to get married, as soon as we saw it we knew it was the right place. Once we booked the venue with Emma and John, they could not have been more helpful and professional. They made every aspect of booking and planning extremely easy and laid back. They were unbelievably approachable and understanding and their expert opinions informed a lot of our planning for the big day. The room bookings and table plans ran very smoothly and nothing was an issue. We blocked off rooms for guests travelling and everything worked out exactly as we had planned. The rooms were gorgeous and very reasonably priced.

Now to the big day. On arrival, the chapel was set out beautifully, exactly how we wanted it to be. John and Emma kept count of how many guests were in the chapel and closed the gate when the chapel was full, as they understood how important it was to my wife that she did not have to walk into a chapel with a load of people hanging around outside it. Another example of Emma and John going above and beyond to cater to our needs. The chapel is in such a beautiful location we were able to get all of our photos done on site within an hour of the ceremony finishing. We did not have to travel anywhere and were able to enjoy the second half of our drinks reception. The photos turned out amazing.

The drinks reception was held in the lobby due to heavy rain the night before but it was absolutely magical with loads of room for all guests to mingle and the efficient bar close by. The wedding ballroom was laid out beautifully and Emma and John advised us on best times for speeches, entry etc. They made our day so easy with constant guidance and reassurance.

On the morning of the wedding, our florist forgot to drop us a bouquet for my grandmother that we had planned on presenting to her. John realized it was missing and mentioned it to us. My wife asked him if he could sort something out and he replied he absolutely could without batting an eyelid. He arranged for another bouquet from a local florist and had a gorgeous one waiting for us when the time came. We did not have to organize anything. Another example of them going above and beyond for us.

The food was absolutely amazing. We went with Beef and Cod which we loved during the menu tasting, however, it was even better on the day. Top table service was impeccable and we were very well looked after, as were all of our guests. The bar staff on the night were outstanding too, with no-one waiting long for a drink and no huge ques at the bar at any stage. There was a lot of drinking done at the wedding and everyone commented on the bar staffs efficiency and friendliness. All staff positively interacted with our guests and there was a real sense of comfort, craic and joviality among the staff all day and night.

The venue, food, staff and vibe in the Clanard are amazing but we really felt that Emma and John were the icing on the cake. They were absolutely on the ball throughout the entire booking process and the big day. Although they deal with weddings every day of the week, they really made us feel special on our big day, they could not have done any more for us. Amazing venue and wonderful people. We wish we could do it all over again.

My husband and I first visited Clanard on a busy Saturday to check the standard of service under pressure and from that day we knew this was where we wanted to get married! Wedding planning can be so stressful and overwhelming at times but Emma and John were amazing at ensuring we had all the essentials covered. They were fantastic at helping us make our dreams become a reality. Our friends and family were well fed and greatly impressed with the venue! The lobby is amazingly light and bright, perfect reception for a wedding! The garden out the back was brilliant for photos and the friendly and talkative staff made all of us feel at home. We are beyond grateful for all the team at Clanard court hotel and the support they gave us in creating our perfect day that we will never forget!

One week today since we said I do the best day of our lives so magical 🥹🫶 we would like to thank Emma John and all the staff for a fantastic day and all the hard work you guys do to make it so special 🫶 the most beautiful Chapel and Hotel 💕 would highly recommend to anyone looking to get married Clanard Court is the place 🫶
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Could not have asked for anything more from the clonard. From the preparation to the day they could not do enough. The day itself was perfect. Food was amazing. Special thanks to Emma and John.

We would highly recommend this hotel for your wedding. From the moment we stepped foot inside we immediately felt comfortable and knew this would be were we would get married .We fell in love with the chapel and it was the perfect backdrop for our plans. Emma was so helpful and was on the phone or email whenever we had an enquiry.

Food was excellent and all our guests spoke very highly of this with john being very attentive the whole evening making sure everyone had all they needed.

The accommodation was beautiful. Every room was perfect and done to a high standard.

All the staff were very helpful and there with a smile and a chat. It really feels like a family hotel and your made fell at home.

Great value for money with easy ways to pay off as you go so we never felt under pressure. If we had to do it all again we wouldn't change a thing.

Thanks so much to Emma, John and all the staff at the Clanard Court Hotel!
We had the best day of our lives.
Emma’s professionalism and approachability was second to none.
Every staff member showed us the same professionalism and approachability and was commented on by numerous guests who attended our wedding.
The food was delicious, the venue and rooms were spotless.
The little white chapel 💒 is just fabulous.
The staff could not do enough for us from the day we went to look at The Clanard as an option for our big day.
I would like to thank Emma and all the staff for making our day very special.

Denise & Declan

Had the perfect wedding!
From start to finish the staff at the clanard court hotel were nothing but professional. And made sure that our big day went smoothly and on time. Any request we had for our day was meet and carried out to the highest standard.
They made sure that both the little chapel was ready and decorated to our request for the ceremony as well as the room for the dinner reception. With our colour theme being well presented throughout the venue. We are able to available of the blossom tree for our dinner reception which really brought our special day together.
The food.....where to begin. The food was excellent if there is one thing I can really recommend to any future couples getting married at the clanard court to try their 32 hour slow cooked blade of beef. It is the definition of perfection. Almost anyone who asked either myself or the groo. What to go for we told them the beef. And no one was left disappointed. They all had nothing but good review from our guest.

We had the most amazing wedding day at clanard court hotel. Everything was taken care of by the wedding team. The food was amazing and attention to detail was just so impressive to us. We would highly recommend having wedding here to any couple.

Emma & team made the day so easy to plan and the day went seamless with their support and organisation.

Where do we even start? We had such an amazing experience planning our wedding with the Clanard, every member of staff from reception, bar staff, waiting staff special mention to Liz who looked after us all so well.
Emma and John went above and beyond for us from the moment we made contact, throughout all our planning our family dinner the evening before wedding, our wedding day and even our day 2 celebration, untill we checked out after the wedding. Nothing was too big an ask and Emma completely put us both at ease whenever the planning became stressful.
All our guests are still talking about how amazing the food was and how friendly the staff was.
An amazing experience from start to finish. We just wish we could so it all again

We got married in the Clanard Court in March of this year and it was a fantastic experience from start to finish! On our first visit to the hotel we met Eoin and Emma and we loved how welcoming, friendly, helpful and accommodating they were. We booked our wedding there and then and never looked back! Emma was a dream to deal with, always keeping us updated and always responding to any questions or queries we had along the way.
Everyone expects to be stressed or bombarded with various different jobs when planning a wedding but I genuinely felt stress free the whole time. The hotel looked after every detail making it a super enjoyable experience for us!
The little white chapel was stunning and they had it decorated beautifully. All of our guests commented on how fabulous it was. All of the staff were fantastic from the reception staff to the waiting and bar staff! And the food was absolutely delicious, another big win with our guests. They catered especially well for our children and some other smallies and this allowed everyone young and old to enjoy the day! I can’t think of any negative to comment and would highly recommend this hotel to any couple in the midst of wedding planning! You will not be disappointed! Exceptional value for money and exceptional service to match 🥰

Nice venue and good location.

I'm so happy I chose the Clanard Court Hotel for our wedding. It was the first place we viewed and we just loved it straight away especially the chaple on the grounds, it was beautiful, some of my guests said it was like walking into a fairytale. Everything was perfect, the rooms, food, decor, everything was five star. All my guests had a great day. Emma and all the staff went above and beyond to make our day so special, they were amazingly helpful from the beginning, planning and of course on the day. I can't thank you all enough. I would highly recommend The Clanard Court Hotel to anyone planning their special day.

One of the most important and biggest decisions a couple can make is to get married and it can in most cases be very stressful and daunting, but if you have Emma Ferris and the Clanard Court hotel family with you it becomes the most fun, memorable and exciting time of your life. Emma's attention to detail and her organisation skills are unparalleled with the entire wedding process. From start to finish Emma is there for anything you need no matter how small or how big the problem is even if it's just for an idea or suggestion on how to make it easier, better etc,, we would have been lost without Emma as for the Clanard Court family they have everything covered even the smallest of details and things that you wouldn't even think of are covered. Their commitment and dedication to making your dreams a reality are second to none as they went above and beyond for us. Our guests could not have been happier with everything and still to this day they talk of our wedding as being one of the best weddings they've ever been to or seen from the details and decor to the food the service and the overall quality of experience they were bestowed. Some of our guests had that great of a time that they booked another one or two days after as they simply didn't want it to end. As for being a child friendly environment OMG the children who attended our wedding aswell as our own children had an absolute blast with some even having fun with the staff who played and entertained them with games and jokes etc. No one was left wanting for anything it was the best experience my family have ever had.

We got married at the Clanard on the 1st of March 2025. We booked initially for the beautiful little white chapel but were blown away by the amazing staff. We can’t thank Emma enough for everything she did on the lead up and the day of the wedding. From the very start she went above and beyond for us. Her communication was brilliant throughout the whole journey. She was on call day and night to answer any queries. And went out of her way to accommodate us in any requests we had. She made the whole process so much more less stressful. And we can’t forget John who took great care of us all on the day and kept everything running on time. He also made some amazing personalised signs and a seating chart for us. Both John and Emma are such a great team and together pulled the whole day off seamlessly. We can’t thank them enough and all the staff at the Clanard for the most amazing day!

We had our wedding in February 2025 and couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out. The venue is beautiful and well-maintained, with great spaces for both the ceremony and the reception. It made for a really elegant and comfortable atmosphere that our guests loved.

Emma and John were so professional and easy to work with. They were responsive to our questions, helped us stay organized, and made sure everything ran smoothly on the big day. We really appreciated their calm, can-do attitude throughout the process.

The food was excellent and the staff during the event were friendly and attentive. Our guests felt well taken care of, and that meant a lot to us. The rooms were comfortable and convenient, which made the whole weekend easy for everyone staying on-site.

Overall, it was a great experience and a perfect setting for such a special occasion. We’re really glad we chose Clanard and would absolutely recommend it to other couples planning their wedding.

Emma our wedding coordinator was amazing. We picked one of the package deals and it was beyond our expectations, took a lot of stress away from us. Everything included in the package was ideal. Venue, food,flowers,cake, makeup,rooms, and DJ Gary Sheenan was brilliant. The staff were very friendly and accommodating. Couldn't fault anything about our day. It was perfect. Thanks for everything Christina and Martin

What can I say only, Amazing!! From start to finish nothing was to big a challenge and if you remember the date there was many a challenge.. Emma, Eoin, John and their whole team were a joy to deal with from initial booking till late in the evening the day of they wedding they were always available for queries or requests.. ballroom and reception decor was stunning and our guests are still talking about the food on the day (many of who have gone back to hotel for other meals).. We cannot thank the Clanard Court and there team enough for making our special day unforgettable.. We will be regular visitors for many years to come.. Any one looking for a wedding venue make sure you make it your business to check out this amazing hotel!! Thank you all again.. John & Catriona

We got married on the 3rd of January, and it was truly the best day of our lives. From start to finish, the Clanard Court Hotel made everything feel effortless. Every single member of staff went above and beyond for us — nothing was ever too much trouble. Their kindness, warmth, and attention to detail made us feel completely at ease, so we could just enjoy every moment.

The food was absolutely beautiful. Our guests are still talking about how delicious everything was, from the starters to dessert. It really added to the joy of the day, knowing everyone was so well looked after.

The atmosphere was full of love, laughter, and happiness. Everything came together even better than we could have imagined, and we’ll always be grateful to the team at the Clanard Court for making our day so special.

Thank you for helping us create memories we’ll cherish forever.

We are finding it quite hard to put into words just how thankful we are to all the staff at the Clanard Court Hotel, in particular Emma and John… We are still reeling from the day, it was honestly the best day of our lives.

Where do I begin? The Clanard Court Hotel was the first hotel we viewed, and we paid our deposit straight away, without viewing any other venue. The hotel is just stunning; the ballroom, the lobby, the bar, and the little white chapel… We got married in November so all of the Christmas decorations were up which were just stunning.
Our initial dealings were with all with Emma. From the outset, she could not have been more helpful. She was so lovely to deal with and was always available to answer any questions I had.

The day itself could not have went better. Emma and John were just out of this world. Every single person that we met down for breakfast the following morning commented on how fantastic the staff were. John was constantly present in the reception area making sure everyone had a drink and food. He also made sure everyone was satisfied during the meal and ensuring everyones drinks were topped up. The food was also unbelievable - every single person commented on how nice it was, the duck spring rolls and the slow cooked beef were out of this world. A lot of people said they have never tasted nicer beef at a wedding!

Emma was brilliant on the morning of the wedding. Her calming presence was needed! The bride & groom from the day before happened to check out early that morning, and Emma went above & beyond to get the Bridal suite cleaned ASAP so that I could do a first look with my father in the Bridal suite and get pictures there prior to the ceremony.
My husband also happened to forget the buttonholes the morning of the wedding, and informed Emma of this 15 minutes before the ceremony. Emma acted quick; she got straight onto a florist in Kildare Village and arranged for 6 buttonholes to be made and dropped up urgently - I was none the wiser of this! She literally was superwoman :)

We will never be able to thank the Clanard Court enough. They honestly went above and beyond for us and our guests. People are still telling us it was the best wedding they were ever at. They deserve so much credit for what they do - it’s evident why they receive so many rewards.
Thank you so much Emma, John and all the team from the bottom of our hearts. We cannot wait to visit the Clanard Court every year on our anniversary.
Sarah & Michael xx

We got married here in November 2024 and the whole experience from start to finish was absolutely amazing. Emma, John, and all of the staff were brilliant and nothing was too much to ask. The hotel was decorated perfectly for Christmas which matched our colour scheme perfectly and we got some gorgeous photos. All our guests told us what an amazing day they had. The food was delicious. Would highly recommend the Clanard Court for wedding and any other event.

We got married this year , We dealt with Emma and she is honestly the most amazing person so down to earth and attentive there was nothing that wasn’t a problem or that she didn’t accommodate us with! I think she done more planning than we did kept and us on track checking in constantly! She is just hands down one of the nicest people and truly wants you to have the best day . All the staff on the day were just amazing (and everytime we visited even the restaurant ) they are just the most welcoming and friendly people you feel at home from the minute you arrive . Our guest spoke so highly of the staff and the hotel and just all agreed it was truly magical. John came to all tables checking in on our guest , he went out of his way to speak with all tables which was so lovely . The attention to detail was nothing short of amazing the place looked exactly how I wished it would . If you are considering having your wedding at The Clanard I can honestly say it will be the best decision. We can’t thank them enough for helping us to have the wedding day of our dreams . They have an amazing team each and everyone of them!

Choosing to get married at the Clanard Court was truly the best decision we made. From the moment we first visited the venue, Emma and John made us feel completely supported and cared for. Their professionalism, warmth, and attention to detail were evident from day one. Emma was there every step of the way, answering all of our questions, offering fantastic suggestions, and ensuring everything ran smoothly with John on the day. She even went above and beyond to help us resolve an issue with one of our suppliers. We are incredibly grateful to Emma, John, and the entire team for making our day absolutely perfect. We couldn't have asked for a better experience.

My daughter got married there last Saturday 5th Oct and have to say from start to finish it was a great day. The food was really good the staff were so nice special thanks to Emma, John and Eoin for everything. There was an incident with the cake when we were travelling down from Dublin and the hotel sent the cake of to be fixed which was so kind of them. The guests were giving praises about the hotel say that the food was coming non stop all day they even had finger food in residents bar at 2 in the morning. The bedrooms were spacious and so clean also everyone loved the little church in the grounds. I so happy my daughter (kristina) and son in law (sean) picked the Clanard Court Hotel. I would recommend this venue to anyone getting married

We had our wedding in the Clanard Court in October and I could not recommend it enough.
Emma and John are a fantastic team, and they will put your mind at ease. Any questions/advice/worries you may have leading up to the wedding day - Emma is checking in and available to guide you.

The staff go over and beyond, courteous, friendly, and makes your guests feel so welcome. The food is out of this world. The service is top notch. And lastly the venue is amazing. You will not be disappointed with the photos you get from the beautiful grounds.
We had the most magical day on our wedding day. Many thanks to Emma and staff for making it a day to remember.

We had our wedding at the Clanard Court in September 2024, and it was everything we hoped it would be. We stumbled across the Clanard as we were looking through potential venues, and we had a feeling it would suit us. We booked an appointment to check it out and instantly fell in love when we got there. The little white chapel really captured us and we were sure this was the place for us. Throughout the process from the first meeting to the big day, the Clanard’s wedding coordinator Emma was on hand to answer any questions we had no matter how trivial, made us feel right at home whenever we visited and was lightning fast in all her responses. Every single member of staff we spoke with were so lovely and accommodating and the food was absolutely sublime. All of our guests have had nothing but positive comments about the entire day. We can't thank the Clanard Court enough for making our most precious day extra special.

I recently got married in the Clanard Court Hotel. From the moment we stepped in the hotel and met with Emma we loved it and knew it was going to be our venue. Emma is just incredible at her job and was ALWAYS on hand to answer questions. We could not say one bad thing about the hotel and its staff. Emma, John and all the staff could not have looked after us better. The food was delicious. All our guests raved about the hotel from the drinks reception to the meal to the evening food! We couldn’t recommend the Clanard Court enough! Just wish we could do it all again and I would do it all in the Clanard Court if I could.

We got married here in August and we couldn't be happier with our choice! The food, the function room, the rooms, the chapel, absolutely every single detail was nothing short of beautiful and perfect! The staff and our amazing wedding coordinator really made our wedding a dream come true. Thank you a million times Emma, John and team!

We were very happy with the Clanard Court Hotel, couldn't have asked for a better service! We had multiple meetings with the hotel coming up to our big day, and we had several requests and things we wanted to do and they said YES to everything! They were very accommodating and easy to deal with. All of our guests had nothing but nice things to say about the hotel grounds and service from the staff members. We couldn't be happier, highly recommend!
Kind regards,
Ciaran

Nothing but praise for the all staff at the Clanard Court Hotel there was genuinely nothing more they could of done for us on our big day they had everything thought out and planned so well. We didnt have one guest out of the 120 that had one bad thing to say nothing but praises all around for food, rooms and staff. The staff who where everywhere on the day including the planners and the general managers who spent the day in amongst the guests making sure they where happy and very quick to act with the ever changing events that wedding days bring. I cant praise this team of people at the Clanard enough 10/10 expierence.

We were married in the Clanard Court Hotel in August of this year and had the best day!
From the first visit Emma made planning and organising an effortless experience with her support and communication.
We fell in love with the little chapel and our guests were equally as impressed with the beautiful setting it provided for our ceremony.
John and the banquetting staff offered an incredible service and made sure that everyone was well looked after.
Overall we are so happy that we chose the Clanard Court for our wedding and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for the perfect venue.

From the moment we met Emma we knew that she would carry through on the vision we had for our special day. Nothing was a problem and her responsiveness via email was top class. The Little White Chapel was a beautiful setting for our ceremony and also our pictures. The gardens are also fabulous. The food at our wedding was spectacular. Even when we asked for slight alterations to certain dishes it was no problem. Our guest still rave about the Featherblade beef!! The banqueting staff could not do enough for us!! The only small thing on the day was one of the managers kept calling my husband the wrong name (I undertand it was wedding season and we were one of many) but it did frustrate him a little. Overall, you are so well looked after in this hotel and the value for money is second to none, our guests were fed from start of the day to the end, food was in abundance, I am so glad we chose 'Clanard Court' as our venue.

From start to finish our day exceeded what we expected . Emma was incredibly helpful from the very start , all emails and calls replied to very quickly and efficiently. On the night we met John the other wedding co ordinator , he was so much fun and worked hand in hand with Emma to give us a day we won’t forget our guests still talk about what a great day it was and how great venue and food were, I would highly recommend clanard court hotel and it will forever hold a special place in our hearts

The Clanard Court Hotel is local to us in Athy , we originally thought it might be nice to have our wedding outside of our home county. We viewed so many places and 100% the clanard surpassed them all. Its a modern hotel, immaculate and maintained so well each year . The staff are amazing, wedding coordinator Emma made everything run so smoothly and the manager John was extremely helpful too. Both checking in on us several times throughout our wedding day to ensure we were happy with everything. I can't recommend it more highly. Guests at our wedding are still saying to us how great a hotel it is, the food, the service, everything about it. Its an immaculate hotel with top standards. We've been to many weddings and comparing to the Clanard they were just in another league. Mary Fennin the hotel owner, such a lovely lady, even came over to us on the day to congratulate us and ensure all was ok. It was simply amazing. They Clanard Court Hotel, and staff really made our day an unforgettable and special day

Clonard court hotel was brilliant had the best time with family and friends made everyone feel welcome went above and beyond to make.are day perfect

From the time we booked to when our feet hurt from dancing , we couldn't have been more thankful for all Emma and John done to make our day so special.
Emma was always contactable even f0r the stupid questions, her attentionto detail was outstanding and we felt we had know her all our lives. She is now a friend for life x
The choices of menus was amazing and budgets to suit every couple we were so happy with our food choices as were our guests it was talk of the tables..
The red wine was to die for.
If we could do it all again we would and I have recommended the clanard court hotel to so many after our experience, we have even had a sneaky night away in one of the suites since and I'll most definitely be booking for the new year.
Clanard courts gets 5 stars 🌟from myself and Dave x

Our Wedding was better than we ever hoped for. Emma is an amazing person, she is fantastic at what she does and definitely deserves a raise! Any questions or additions were handled expertly and efficiently and Emma and John as a team are the gold standard. John is so personable and kind and made sure everything ran smoothly on the day. The Venue, the Chapel, the food were all gorgeous and we wouldn't change a thing. Our guests are still taking about what a great day it was 7 months later! The Clanard is hands down the best Wedding venue. Do not hesitate to book it. Louise and Denis Mullally.

We were blown away from the first day we viewed the clanard Court Hotel and met Emma and the team. We knew straight away we had found our wedding venue.
The run up to the wedding was so relaxing, nothing was a problem or an issue. Emma was always quick to response to our queries/ questions.
Our wedding day was the best day ever, we couldn't of asked for better service, food, accommodation or facilities. Everything was to perfection. Wedding guests were extremely happy and had such positive feedback. John, Eoin and staff ensured all guests were well looked after.

We couldn't recommend the clanard court enough.

We had an amazing day from start to finish at the Clanard Court Hotel.

I literally could not recommend this hotel highly enough. From the very moment we booked the hotel the wedding planner Emma was really engaged and so invested to make sure every detail of the big day was right.

The little white chapel on site is simply beautiful, elegantly decorated and perfectly sized for around 100 -150 guests. It’s a wonderful feature for the hotel and all our guests were in awe of it.

The food in the hotel is delicious, they do beautiful warm canapés and the food for the main event was absolutely fabulous from start to finish.

The hotel itself is beautifully decorated, the honeymoon suite is lovely and very spacious with a beautiful four poster bed, and all the guest rooms are lovely. The main ballroom / suite for the wedding is lovely and bright with one side looking out on beautifully manicured gardens.

The service was impeccable, this is a family owned hotel and all the staff are extremely warm, friendly and accommodating. The were also incredibly attentive and will absolutely ensure every detail of your big day goes perfectly.

Finally the hotel has a range of very reasonably priced packages to cater for all budgets, making it very possible to have a very high quality wedding at an affordable cost to meet your budget.

It’s hard to put into words how much we enjoyed our wedding and how perfect the venue is, but I would 100% recommend this hotel if you are planning a wedding, you won’t be disappointed!

Thank you Emma & all the staff at the Clanard Court Hotel!

Myself and my husband got married in the clonard Court on thr 29th of March 2024. Right when we booked it back in July 2022 Emma was amazing right from the beginning. She made the process so easy and answered every question with ease and reassurance. On our special day the staff were absolutely amazing and couldn't do enough. No matter how big or little was asked they all went above and beyond. Their new little Chapel is a beautiful wedding venue and made our ceremony so special. If your looking for a wedding venue look no further then the clonard Court Hotel for an amazing day and amazing support along the way.

We got married in march and had an absolutely amazing day everything was perfect. The food, the chapel, the staff it couldn't have been better. The hotel is very child friendly our daughter is autistic and they had no problem showing her around on couple of occasions prior to the wedding so that she was comfortable with the hotel and the chapel. They went above and beyond to make sure everything went perfect. All the guests commented on how lovely all the staff were and how everything just flowed seamlessly. We had the package deal and it really did make organising the wedding totally stress free Emma provided us with a few options each service offered on package and we just had to pick one. We had an amazing day and would highly recommend the clanard.

We had our wedding at the Clannard Court Hotel back in March, and it was absolutely amazing from start to finish! Emma and her incredible team went above and beyond to make our day unforgettable. Every detail was taken care of with such care and professionalism, and they truly made us feel special throughout.

The venue was stunning, the food was delicious, and the atmosphere was perfect for both our ceremony and the reception. Emma's attention to detail and her team's warm, friendly service ensured that everything ran seamlessly, allowing us to relax and fully enjoy our big day. The evening was just as wonderful, with our guests raving about how fantastic everything was.

We couldn’t recommend the Clannard Court Hotel enough to any couple looking for a wedding venue. Thank you, Emma, and the entire team for making our dream wedding a reality!

The service in this hotel is second to none.

We got married in The Clonard Court in February’24 and I can't recommend this venue enough for anyone looking to host a wedding! It's a true gem!

From start to finish emma, john and there whole team couldn't do enough. Couldn't recommend them enough. We had a day to remember, guests had a fantastic day, new chapel very special. Thank you so much guys xxx

Emma, John and Owen in the clanard were absolutely amazing from day 1 upon meeting Emma we knew this was where we wanted our day. She absolutely made everything so easy and her positive good vibes were always there when we spoke. Nothing was ever an issue she guided us in the right direction at all times and Owen also upon our tasting menu he helped us out and gave us the most popular choices to help. On the day all 3 were absolutely amazing we couldn't have asked for more. So professional but yet so sound we were blown away by them.

From preparations to our special day everything was amazing. Emma was a pleasure to deal with and could not have imagined to work with anybody else throughout she made our day so special!

We had our day at Clanard Court Hotel on 14th October 2023 and it was AMAZING!

From the moment we stepped foot in the hotel to view it and meet with Emma we knew straight away this was the place we wanted to get married.

As well as the hotel being beautiful, every member of staff were so friendly and helpful. Service on the day was out of this world nobody could do enough for us and our guests and everyone commented on how brilliant the staff were. A special mention must be given to Emma our wedding coordinator she is unreal at her job! She was always there with quick replies and advice even when I was asking questions about silly things she was there from day dot helping any way she could. Emma is a true asset to the hotel!

Another special mention needs to be given to John who went above and beyond looking after us and our guests. He was on the ball all day and night and really looked after everyone. Everything ran so smoothly, like a dream thanks to John. His wealth of knowledge and experience reflects in his work and we're so grateful to have had him oversee our day.

The food was absolutely gorgeous everyone was raving about it. Nobody went hungry either as there was plenty of food all day/night. My mother in law and sister in law are coeliac and the chef made sure there was always something suitable available for them. My mother in law also said it was the nicest coeliac meals she's ever had!

If we had to do our day over again we would chose Clanard Court Hotel every time, 100 times over, everything was perfect.

Emma, John, Eoin and all the team at Clanard Court Hotel thank you all from the bottom of our hearts for making our day so special xx

Can't speak highly of this hotel.. Emma and John were absolutely brilliant there really good at there job, myself and my wife had such a fantastic day I would love to do it all again from start to finish was out of this world thank you again clanard hotel.

Everything on our wedding day went perfectly. Emma is a absolute gem and John a master of ceremonies in every way. Our only wish is that we could do it all over again!
Food and service were high on our list of priorities and the Clanard Court excels in these areas! The ballroom is stunning and with the backdrop of their wonderful gardens it just elevates the whole setting.
Our guests (most of whom had never been in the hotel before) are still raving about our wedding day, complementing on everything from the beauty of the hotel, the fabulous food, the friendly staff, and immaculate rooms.
If you're considering having your wedding in the Clanard Court, don't look any further!

We had a Fantastic Wedding Day at the Clanard Court Hotel and cannot recommend it highly enough to any brides and grooms out there that are looking for an amazing venue with fabulous staff and service!
From our first viewing, we knew it was going to be our reception venue. It was everything that we were looking for and more. Emma was a dream to work with. I was so relaxed coming up to the Wedding Day and I can honestly put that all down to her.. every query I had was answered asap & her attention to detail was amazing. All I can say is she is a pure genius at what she does. John, we met coming closer to the day for our menu tasting and apart from being a pure gent and a great laugh, he could not do enough for us. We had a few very fussy eaters on the day which had me a bit worried and, to be honest, I don't know how he did it but he catered for everyone and they are still raving about the food!!
From Management to Staff, you know your going to be in great hands. Thank you all for making our day so seamless and special & the best day of our lives!

I don't even know where to start on the amazing service, attention to detail and kindness of the staff of the clanard court.
On the day Emma and John stand out a mile, I didn't have a single thing to think of. I was so confident in the pair I knew once I got to the hotel it was time to relax and enjoy the day. And that I did.
Emma from the get go was easy to deal with, friendly and nothing was a problem. Kept in touch and helped throughout the year of planning and left my job very easy in regards planning. Her friendly bubbly personality was alway there at the other end of the phone if I need anything. The day of she had everything running smoothly and I owe her a huge thanks for that.
John on the other hand again so helpful, he copped something small on the wedding day that he wasn't happy with from a supplier, he asked me could he change it. There wasn't a second where I thought about it, I knew he knew best and he was right.
It can't go unsaid about the food, everything was amazing . The portions, the quality, the service. In particular the braised beef cheek, weeks on people are still commenting on how amazing it was. I?d also like to rate the waiting staff, they were so fun and helpful and are often overlooked.
The hotel in general is so beautiful. The private garden sold it for me, the kids hut in the private garden, the amazing lobby and of course the beautifully decorated function room. The attention to detail in this hotel is second to none. This is proved by how busy and popular the hotel is in the area.
I can't thank everyone at the clanard enough for making our day so special for us ????

We had the best day for our wedding at the clanard court hotel. Everything from the service to the food to the decor was incredible. Emma (the wedding cordinator) pulled out all the stops to make myself, the groom and all the wedding guests have the most fabulous and memorable day. Emma is always welcoming, helpful and in great form anytime we dealt with her. She is truly great at her job. The attention to detail and little touches meant the world to us. John and the team who looked after the dinner were great as well. A number of the guests said it was the best wedding/hotel they were at which we were delighted to hear. The hotel itself, rooms and grounds are beautiful . We were so happy with the venue and will be regulars in the future.

I can't express how grateful we are for such an amazing wedding we had last weekend. We fell in love with the venue from the very first time we visited and even after viewing 9 other venues we still chose this one. Emma, the wedding coordinator, not only made us feel welcome but was super accommodating throughout the whole process. Simply amazing! We received so many compliments for all of the staff, the food, the service and of course the beautiful venue
I'd pick the Clanard every time! Thank you so much!

Clanard Court Hotel is an excellent venue for a family wedding. It was a pleasure having Emma as our co-ordinator and friend from start to finish, as she left no stone unturned. The team, along with Emma, John & Eoin had a warm welcome for us on each occasion that we visited and the same was said by our guests. The food is delicious with a wide variety of options to suite all tastes, food presentation was delightful, prompt and friendly service, all our dietary requirements were catered for. Due to the weather we didn't get to use all of the garden facilities but they are everything that you need. Private enclosed picturesque garden with a children's play room suitable for all ages, it went down a treat. Also the fact you can view the garden from the function room is a bonus. The accommodation is fresh and comfortable, cant wait to return.

We can't rate Clanard Court Hotel highly enough. We were so happy with how everything went on the day from the food, excellent service, to the venue itself. All our guests were really happy and are still complimenting the hotel especially the food and service. Emma, John and the whole team were so easy to deal with. A special thanks to Emma for how helpful she was to us throughout the whole process and answered any queries we had straight away no matter how complicated they were! From our first meeting last year to view the venue we knew we were in good hands. We will most definitely be recommending the hotel to our friends as a wedding venue.

Can I just say the Clanard staff are one big dream team. Our day was fantastic from start to finish. The food was amazing. The grounds at the hotel are beautiful they have a secret garden and a bonus new white chapel which we had the pleasure of having our ceremony in. All the staff were so welcoming and helpful and go out of their way to make your day amazing. Nothing was ever too small or big. I wouldn't fault this hotel in any way. From the minute you set foot in this hotel you will want to book it. Emma and John are fantastic and will ensure the day goes smoothly and the way you want. All I can say is we had the best wedding day and can't thank the Clanard team enough.

Emma and the team and the Clanard Court made Everything absolutely perfect.
The venue, the food and the staff are of the highest quality and really are the best in business.

We got married in the Clanard Court Hotel on the 24/06/23. Booking the hotel was the best thing we ever did. Emma Ferris is an amazing wedding coordinator, you just tell her what you want and she makes it happen. Our ceremony was in the Little White Chapel a truly unique setting. Our photos were taken in the gardens so there was no need to move from the venue meaning we actually got to enjoy some time at the drinks reception. The food was exceptional, piping hot and the service provided by John Kelly and his team was outstanding. Everything about the hotel is 5 Star. By the end we felt like part of the family.

The staff at the clanard couldn't do enough for us on our wedding, it's an excellent venue and you can tell all the staff really love what they do. The pure excitement at reception when I arrived at the hotel to check in the night before was so infectious!
Myself and my partner really clicked with Emma the wedding co ordinator straight away, she is so dedicated and organised but also down to earth and gave us great advice.
We had the believe package which included so many extras, like a candy cart and bar extension. There was beautiful displays for the table plan and wedding cake, things I didn't have to give any thought to!
The food was delicious, everyone comments on the tender blade of beef for main course.
The room for reception is excellent with a big long bar space, doors that open straight into a beautiful private garden.
I'd recommend this wedding venue to all future brides!

It's a fantastic venue great value for money the staff are so friendly we could not fault them with everything the done for me and my wife

We couldn't have picked a better wedding venue for our special day. The Clanard Court Hotel is not only a stunning venue, but the staff are amazing. We dealt with Emma throughout our planning process and she is incredible at what she does. She really made the whole process as easy and enjoyable as possible for us. We couldn't have asked for a better wedding coordinator to work along side. A big bonus to this venue is the outdoor gardens which are beautiful and we were blessed with great weather on the day, that our guests were able to sit outside and soak up the sun in a gorgeous setting. Everything ran so smoothly on the day and we didn't have to worry about the little things, it was all taken care of for us by the Clanard Court staff. Thank you so much to Emma and all the team involved, we had the best day and it wouldn't have been done without all your hard work. James and Chelsea

The best decision we made when planning our wedding, was booking The Clanard Court as our venue, and here's why:

1. Emma Ferris, our award winning wedding coordinator, supported us with her expertise, energy and positivity througout the process. She made it all so easy for us.
2. John Kelly the operations manger, who never let a glass go dry, was on the ball with everything, on the day, and exuded calm, even when my speech, may have, run on a bit too long.
3. The rooms are spacious, beautifully decorated and comfortable. They look and feel expensive, even though they?re not!
4. The food was delicious and plentiful.
5. The genuine hospitality and attentiveness offered to us by all the staff was beyond compare. I've never stayed anywhere before where the staff were so happy and efficient in their work, as well as being genuinely friendly towards all the guests.
6. The lobby, with high ceilings and large windows, was the perfect setting for the drinks reception. It's so bright and airy. The guests were delighted with the drinks selection, especially the beer on tap and The Pimm's.
7. The kids were made to feel welcome and at home: special kids plates at the drinks reception, friendly staff, the kids? cabin out the back, yummy kids? menu at dinner.
8. The Chapel. It didn't exist when we booked the venue but, oh my, what a wonderful surprise it was. It's so beautiful and romantic. The setting is perfect. We couldn't have found a better location for our ceremony, had we trawled all the exclusive, boutique venues in Ireland. We got a unique setting and the ease of a hotel wedding, all in one! I don't think there's anywhere else you?ll find that!
9. Last but not least: our guests! They were singing the praises of The Clanard throughout their stay there and continue to reflect on what a great venue it is. Compliments have gone to the rooms, the food and the attentiveness of staff, in particular. A few have mentioned wanting to go back for a stay in the hotel again. I know we?ll definitely be back!

Attention to detail was amazing from start to finish. Emma looked after absolutely everything for us. We had the most beautiful stress free day & night. The decor, food, staff, accomodation was everything we hoped for and more.

The hotel could not do enough for us. From the day we booked the venue until we checked out the morning after the big day, nothing was too much for them.
Emma is an absolute star and I don't know how i would of gotten everything done without her.
John was brilliant on the day and everyone couldn't say enough positives about the food and service.
The ladies in the Revive spa did my makeup on the day and bridal parties and they made us all feel so beautiful.
I haven't one negative thing to say about the hotel or staff and can't wait to get back for a trip soon.

Brilliant venue, and really good package's available to suit your budget, Emma is amazing and will bend over backwards to make sure your day is so special also john aswell. Myself and my Husband are over the moon we choose this venue all our guests are still talking about how good our wedding was from start to finish and how welcoming all the staff were at the clanard Court, the food was also out of this world and presented so well. From the day before our wedding right up till the day after our wedding we were made feel at home. A big thanks to Emma and all the staff at the clanard Court hotel gor making the most important day of our lifes so special.

Absolutely fantastic to deal with from start to finish. The staff are second to none particularly Emma and John. Food was delicious and everyone commented on the service. All our guests were so well looked after. We could not find fault with one thing

It is almost hard to put into words how well looked after we were by the hotel. From day 1 , when we first visited the hotel to view the hotel facilities, we were treated like royalty. Right throughout the planning process, the wedding staff were so helpful and accommodating. Phone calls, emails and the menu tasting really helped us to get to the day itself stress free. The big day itself went off so smoothly thanks to the professionalism of all the staff members. A big thank you to Emma, our wedding coordinator and John, the events manager. I cannot recommend the Clanard Court highly enough. Thank you once again to everybody at the hotel for making our day so incredibly special.

We would highly recommend the hotel. The food was amazing and the staff were excellent. All our guests complimented them too

From the very first moment we walked into the hotel we both knew it was exactly where we wanted our wedding reception to be. The food, the staff, the homily feeling of the hotel was something we noticed straight away! From the minute we met our wedding coordinator Emma, she was extremely helpful and made the whole process very easy and enjoyable! There was no ask too big or small. On the day itself we couldn't have asked for more. Everything was perfect. The wedding guests are still talking about the food, amazing! The service on the day was outstanding and every member of staff went above and beyond for us and all our guests.. We both had the best day and listening to our family and friends still talking about it a month later, it's clear they did too! We can't thank The Clanard Court enough and will be forever grateful to them for making our wedding vision a reality! Looking forward to returning in the future for some lovely food, accommodation and top class service!

I could not recommend the clanard Court Hotel enough. They made our day so magical! Their attention to detail was amazing and we're so helpful in every scenario. Emma was our wedding co ordinator, she made us feel so at ease and took time to answer even our smallest of questions. The staff on the day were outstanding. They made everybody feel so welcome and made the day run so smooth. I would recommend them to everyone.

We got married at the Clanard Court Hotel in August gone. The service provided by them was amazing. All emails were replied to quickly and they answered any questions we had no problem.

From the moment we met with Emma, who couldn't do enough for us from the start we knew the Clanard Court hotel was perfect for our wedding day.
Emma, John and Eoin - They where always on hand to answer any questions we had, we where always well informed and nothing ever seemed to big of an ask. They are each very experienced in there own part that they play in the day, Each member of the wedding team goes above and beyond to ensure the day went as perfectly as we dreamed.
The venue - set up is fabulous, we had a outdoor wedding and the grounds are gorgeous. A fantastic addition is the childrens den - we had 20 kids at our wedding and each one loved the den, always great piece of mind for parents that they are safe and enjoying themselves!
Graham and the gang in the kitchen - The food was amazing each guest commented on how each dish was mouth watering. Graham also went to above and beyond to ensure anyone with food allergies where included throughout the day including our own daughter which we are forever thankful for.
Each member of staff in the Clanard Court are helpful, polite, friendly, professional, knowledgeable.
If you are looking for your dream wedding venue then we would highly recommend the Clanard Court Hotel and there dedicated wedding team to ensure you have the wedding of your dreams
We cannot thank Emma, John, Eoin and the team enough for helping us have the most amazing day of our lives.
Thank you,
Emma & Graham

From the very first when day we booked our wedding we knew we had made the best decision to have our wedding in the Clanard Court Hotel Athy. I cannot give enough praise to Emma, our wedding co-ordinator, she has been absolutely amazing from day one. The hotel is fabulous and all the staff are so kind and friendly, a very family friendly hotel. Absolutely everything was perfect on our special day and all our guests nearly two weeks later are still talking about how amazing the food and staff were. I also have to mention John who looked after everyone and oversaw everything for our wedding reception, he made sure everything ran smoothly and nothing was too big of an ask if we needed anything at all on the day. I would highly recommend any newly engaged couples to seriously consider the Clanard Court Hotel for your wedding venue, you will not be disappointed and they will make sure your special day will be remembered for years to come. I am only sorry that we can't have our special day all over again just to experience everything from that day again.

Emma was an absolute joy to work with, went through everything with us from start to finish with no hassle whatsoever!
Excellent venue, excellent food, excellent service & friendly staff. We stayed for 3 full days for our wedding & it was pure bliss. Grounds are beautiful for photos too. Everyone of our guests has said it was best wedding ever! They went that extra mile to make our day run perfectly!
We'll definitely be back for a break again soon.
Thanks to all in the Clanard Court hotel for their warmth & hospitality
Denise and Anthony

There aren't enough stars for Clanard Court Hotel! We had our ceremony and reception there last week and are just so delighted with our whole experience. The staff were so friendly and welcoming, Emma and John looked after us so well and the setting is just beautiful. Our guests absolutely loved it! We had the perfect day for an outdoor ceremony in the garden it was amazing. The food was top notch as well, and plenty of it! We can't wait to go back for a break away in the near future.

Where do we start...wow!! We were lucky enough to have our wedding in The Clanard Court Hotel over the Summer and we, along with our guests were blown away with not only the stunning venue but the most friendly and accommodating staff, truly amazing food to suit each palate, impeccable service and treasured memories that made our wedding day one we will look back on in years to come as the best day of our lives. Emma and her team could honestly not have been more accommodating to us in every aspect, especially as we had postponed with Covid and were then hit with another wave of it prior to the wedding...even the day before our Wedding she was still amending the seating plan for us. Emma was constantly on hand for any query we had, nothing was ever too much for her..I don't know how she does it all! She is just amazing at what she does along with all the Staff at the Clanard Court Hotel. The Clanard itself is just the most beautiful venue full of luxury and class, our guests couldn't believe it and still comment about it! From the bespoke bedroom decor of each room, the fabulous Ball Room that is every Bride's dream with the chiavari chairs, themed lighting and luxury table pieces to the stunning garden with twinkling lights your guests can enjoy before or after their meal, the Venue is second to none and we cant rate it highly enough. We were lucky enough to get some stunning photos in the garden in the evening which I would recommend to any future couples.

All in all, we adored our experience with all the Team at the Clanard, and if I had the day again I would not change a thing.
They made our wedding day what it was, truly magical.

Thank you so much to all the Team at The Clanard Court Hotel.

We had the best day if our lives at our wedding in Clanard Court. From the day we first booked to 3 cancellations later the staff in particular Emma and John could not of been more professional and helpful. The food was amazing every person commented and the staff were excellent. I would highly recommend the clanard court to couples.

I would highly recommend this venue to anyone considering getting married. From start to finish I could not find fault with the service, rooms, food or staff. Everyone went out of their way to do the best they could. Special mention to the Banquet Manager John, so efficient and always with a smile on his face.

We highly recommend The Clanard Court Hotel for their attention to detail, food, service, staff and overall care of all our wedding guests. Sincere thanks to Emma John and all the staff for making our wedding day wonderful and stress free

I honestly cannot recommend the Clanard Court Hotel enough! From the d?cor, the delicious food, the gardens, the attention to detail and the AMAZING staff. Emma was so helpful and responsive. Words cannot describe how amazing she is at what she does!! John was also amazing throughout the day and night! He made sure everything went perfectly with a smile on his face! We got married in the gardens and it felt like we were abroad! Everyone had an amazing day! Thank you all!

I can't actually explain how wonderful the service and experience is at Clanard Court.
From my very first contact during lockdown on email to the effortless, faultless two days at the hotel. 10/10.
Emma is an angel. They need to clone her.

John, Martin and all the staff are friendly, helpful and just the hardest working team I've ever seen.
Our guests were blown away. Many have returned for another stay.
The cost of our wedding was SUCH great value. Unbeatable and the quality, OUTSTANDING.
I loved that nothing was too much to ask.
They are constantly updating the property, improving on perfection.
The food, sublime!
The gorgeous outlook from the Retreat Suite and Deluxe rooms. We all felt so spoilt.

I wish we could do it all over again.

THANK YOU AGAIN!

When we went to view the clanard court hotel, we met with Emma the amazing wedding coordinator, she made me feel relaxed and showed us everything we needed to see. We got married on May 12th and from start to finish everything was perfect. Emma and John couldn't do enough for us! The food was excellent service excellent. Staff are soooo friendly and would help in any way they can. I highly recommend the clanard court hotel for your wedding. The marquee was stunning the decor was gorgeous.
Our guests are still talking about what a great hotel it is. I couldn't thank them enough for all they done to help.

Had our wedding at the Clanard Court hotel on the 9th April and we have to say we had an amazing weekend. From the moment we viewed the hotel as a possible venue we were blown away by the welcome and hospitality we received from every member of Staff. Emma was amazing and accommodated us with all our requests,she was constantly in touch with us and her attention to detail is second to none. Emma, John and Eoghan were exceptional in ensuring our big day went as planned. Emma and Eoghan went above and beyond their duties, helping the bridal party from early that morning, from pinning on button holes to tieing shoes , they were on hand at all times. Our rooms were immaculate and very comfortable. Food and service was exceptional all weekend. A big thank you also to John and his team who were so friendly, efficient and attentive at all times. Honestly we couldn't have wished for our wedding to go any better. Massive thanks to all at the Clanard Court, from Mark, Michelle and family.

We cannot recommend the Clanard Court Hotel high enough. We met with Emma the wedding planner a year before our wedding and booked our wedding two weeks later. From start to finish on our wedding planning journey and the day itself everything was amazing. Emma along with John the banqueting manager and all the staff went above and beyond for us the couple and all of our guests. Both the proprietor and hotel manager were so attentive to us on the day also. The girls in the Revive spa looked after all the beauty and make up for the bridal party on the morning of the wedding, couldn't have asked for better. We had our ceremony in the purpose built ceremony marquee which was just beautiful and afterwards our drinks reception on the lawn with a full bar which meant all our guests were in one place and this made the day lovely and intimate and private, away from other hotel guests. We didn't leave for photos as the grounds are so picturesque and ideal for photos whilst mingling with your guests. Food delicious, would definitely recommend the blade of beef, everyone was talking about it the day after. Start to finish, food, decor, staff, everything was excellent, nothing was a problem. In my opinion it would be very hard to beat the Clanard in terms of friendliness, attention to detail, flexibility around numbers/changes ect, beautiful location and value for money.
Thank you everyone at the Clanard Court Hotel.

What can we say about Emma and all the team at The Clanard. Our date was postponed 3 times due to Covid which in itself was so stressful but not to Emma, her positive and upbeat attitude at every phone call or email just put us as ease. We stayed the night before our wedding and everything was a dream. The staff the food the beautiful venue and ceremony. The Clanard was our first choice and we are definitely not sorry. All our guest complimented on how amazing the food was from breakfast to the wedding meal and afters food. The staff we?re so friendly. In such challenging times you should all be so proud of your staff and hotel. We had such an amazing day and thank you from the bottom of ours heats. Could not recommend your hotel enough to any couple getting married in the future What can we say about Emma and all the team at The Clanard.

Excellent and friendly staff, the wedding team is on the ball down to every detail, the hotel is fab and the food is amazing

David and I would like to thank all the staff of Clanard Court Hotel especially Emma and John for making our day so special and run seamlessly. Emma was a pleasure to work with from start to finish and made the whole wedding organising process so easy. Nothing was too much to ask for.
The venue itself is just gorgeous, we loved the wedding room with the fabulous blossom trees, such a romantic setting. The food is 10/10 and all of guests agreed. Our guests mentioned on several occasions how nice, welcoming, and helpful the staff at the Clanard Court were throughout the day which I am so impressed by and will be forever happy I chose the Clanard Court Hotel as our wedding venue for our special day.
I would highly recommend the Clanard Court Hotel for anyone looking to book their wedding venue. You wont regret it.

When we were planning our wedding, we didn't need to look anywhere else other than The Clanard. Emma and John are passionate in delivering extraordinary wedding hospitality and advice. The Clanard had a dedicated wedding team, attending to every detail, we never had to second guess a thing! Emma had it all sorted. The attention to detail, superb food and stunning decor made our Day everything we dreamed of. Our guests had a ball and still talk about the Best Day Ever, you cannot get better than The Clanard Hotel.
Thank you Emma!

We had a fantastic experience from start to finish with Emma and all the team at The Clanard Court. Nothing was too much trouble and with all the chopping and changing of dates etc due to Covid, Emma made it all seamless. The food was amazing, all our guests raved about it and every single member of staff we encountered from start to finish, were wonderful. The guest rooms were beautiful and the bridal suite gorgeous .
We loved EVERY SINGLE SECOND of our day and The Clanard Court was a big part of that. Thank you all xx

Paul and I had our wedding at Clanard Court Hotel. From the time we booked it, and then with Covid moved the wedding three times, Emma and the team couldn't have done enough for us. The day itself was spectacular. Every single staff member went out of their way to look after us. The function room looked amazing. The food was world class, it was very tasty and presented on every plate so well. All of our guests had a great time, and all said to us they loved the food. We would recommend this hotel to anyone for their special day.

Clanard Court Hotel is an amazing wedding venue. We booked our wedding pre-covid, and postponed once. Emma, from day one. could not do enough for us. She was always at the end of an email or phone if you needed her. We had the best wedding weekend and we had no stress or worries because of how attentive and on the ball Emma, John, Eoin and all the staff were. The food was a huge hit with everyone, from the drinks reception, the main evening meal and late night food. There was never an empty glass of wine, and there were plenty of options if someone had other requests. The guests rooms were beautifully decorated . All of guests are still telling us how much they enjoyed the hotel, and had such a good time. The hotel provided a great selection of packages for weddings at an excellent value. We will always be so grateful that we got to have our weddIng at Clanard Court Hotel.

We had the most amazing stress free wedding day at Clanard Court Hotel. Emma was amazing, from start to finish, helping us plan our special day. Her attention to detail was second to none, and she was always so friendly. She always responded to our queries so quickly and efficiently. John was amazing on the day, and ensured all our guests were catered for. The food was unreal. Our guests still talk about the blade of beef that was served on the day. We really loved the beautiful private garden off the ballroom for our photos. We stayed in the retreat suite, which was amazing, with lovely views. The entire team were so friendly and welcoming, even down to the lovely lady who served us our dinner in the ballroom. I would highly recommend Clanard Court Hotel to other couples for their wedding venue.

Could not recommend the Clanard Court as a wedding Venue enough.
From the day we booked our wedding to checking out when it was all over every single member of staff we dealt with was just amazing.
Planning a wedding during covid was such a stressful thing but Emma really went out of her way to ease any concerns we had and always kept us in the loop.
We lucky enough ended up getting married on a beautiful day in August but even if it had of been lashing rain the hotel and garden is a perfect spot.
Food was gorgeous, the ball room set up and decor is beautiful and all the staff were so friendly and helpful.
I was recommended to check out the Clanard Court by a friend who had also gotten married there and I've been recommending it to anyone that will listen to me.
We had the most perfect weekend, really could not fault one thing.
Thank you again to Emma & John and all the staff.

I WILL ALWAYS BE GRATEFUL AND CHERISH THE MEMORIES.

WE HAD AN OUTDOOR CEREMONY AND IT FELT LIKE WE WERE ABROAD. WE WISH WE COULD DO IT ALL AGAIN. WE WOULDN?T CHANGE A THING. THANK YOU ALL FROM THE BOTTOM OF OUR HEARTS XX

Our wedding at Clanard court was just beautiful, the food the staff and the over all hotel was amazing all our guests are still talking about how lovely everything was and how the staff could not do enough for them
Emma and John looked after us from start to finish and went out of there way to make everything perfect

How to begin to thank The Clanard, and every member of staff They were fabulous, so professional, but an absolute dream to have by our side looking after us both and all our guests. Everything was just incredible. Emma; John and all the staff went above and beyond for us. We are still smiling, but we will be forever grateful to you all at The Clanard Court Hotel.

We had such a relaxed fun wedding day. We were surrounded by beautiful friends & family with Covid restrictions there were just 50 of us. Every guest was so well looked after, and the food was incredible. We Both would highly recommend the hotel.

WE ARE SO HAPPY WE DECIDED TO HAVE OUR WEDDING AT THE CLANARD COURT. EMMA WAS GREAT TO DEAL WITH AND IT WAS NO ISSUE WHEN WE HAD TO CHANGE OUR WEDDING DATE DUE TO COVID RESTRICTIONS. WE HAD AN AMAZING DAY, THANKS TO ALL THE FABULOUS STAFF AT THE CLANARD. A SPECIAL MENTION TO EMMA AT THE REVIVE BEAUTY ROOMS WHO DID OUR MAKEUP ON THE DAY AND ALSO TO JOHN WHO LOOKED AFTER US ALL EVENING, HE REALLY WENT ABOVE AND BEYOND FOR US. THE CLANARD WAS A GREAT CHOICE FOR US AS EVERYTHING WAS ON SITE, HAIR, MAKEUP, OUR CEREMONY AND RECEPTION. THE FOOD WAS DELICIOUS AND THE HOTEL AND GROUNDS ARE STUNNING. THE WEDDING DECOR IS GREAT AND WAS ONE LESS THING FOR US TO WORRY ABOUT.

I can't talk enough about how happy I am that we chose Clanard Court Hotel as our wedding venue. They were so helpful with everything, especially during the extremely stressful time during covid. On our wedding day, the venue and the staff were all perfect. We are still getting compliments on how good and friendly the staff were.

We were delighted to have our wedding reception at Clanard Court Hotel. We were very taken with the beautiful garden ballroom when we went to the wedding showcase, and we were delighted to book a date. All of the staff were so helpful and friendly any time we visited the hotel. Emma was excellent at helping us to organise our day. She was friendly, welcoming and always responded quickly to our emails. John was also very helpful and accommodating. They both managed our wedding reception excellently. They made sure everything ran smoothly from beginning to end.
The reception area and ballroom were beautifully decorated by the hotel. The ballroom leads out onto a beautiful garden area, which meant guests could enjoy a lovely outdoor space if they wished. It was also a lovely space for photographs.
The menu tasting evening was very enjoyable, and we were very happy with our choices. The food was excellent and very well presented on the day. Guests were very happy with their courses, and breakfast was also very tasty. Dinner was also very nicely served to the top table, and the staff were very attentive. The service was excellent from every member of staff, and they made our guests feel very welcome.
The younger guests at our wedding were given treats on arrival, and a play area was available for them to use, which they really enjoyed!
I would highly recommend Clanard Court Hotel as a wedding venue. Thank you for helping to make our day so special for us and our families.

OUR WEDDING DAY AT THE CLANARD COURT WAS UNFORGETTABLE. AS SOON AS WE ARRIVED AT THE HOTEL THE STAFF DID ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING TO ENSURE THAT BOTH THE BRIDE, GROOM AND BOTH FAMILIES WERE WELL LOOKED AFTER. FROM THE COCKTAILS AND AFTERNOON TEA ON ARRIVAL TO THE MEAL WE HAD LATER THAT EVENING, THE SELECTION OF FOOD AND DRINK THAT THEY OFFERED US WAS OUT OF THIS WORLD (OUR FAMILY ARE STILL TALKING ABOUT IT) .

THE FUNCTION ROOM WAS BEAUTIFULLY DECORATED AND SUITED OUR INTIMATE WEDDING. THE ROOMS THAT OUR FAMILY HAD WERE AMAZING AND OUR SUITE WAS SIMPLY A DREAM TO STAY IN.

GETTING MARRIED DURING A PANDEMIC CAN BE DIFFICULT BUT EMMA WAS SUPER TO WORK WITH AND SO VERY HELPFUL. SHE MADE PLANNING OUR WEDDING COMPLETELY STRESS FREE. THE HOTEL WAS SPOTLESS AND MADE US ALL FEEL VERY SAFE TO STAY THERE.

THE GARDENS WERE BEAUTIFUL AND OUR PHOTOGRAPHER WAS SPOILT FOR CHOICES ON WHERE TO TAKE OUR WEDDING PHOTOS (THE ALPACAS ADD AN EXTRA ELEMENT OF FUN TO THE DAY).

WE WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND THE CLANARD COURT TO ANYONE WHO IS GETTING MARRIED. WE WILL 100% BE CELEBRATING OTHER FAMILY FUNCTIONS THERE IN THE FUTURE.

WE WISH TO THANK EMMA AND ALL THE STAFF AT THE CLANARD COURT FOR GIVING US THE WEDDING OF OUR DREAMS.

We had our wedding reception in The Clanard Court December 30th. Everything was perfect from start to finish. Venue looked fabulous with the Christmas decor and finishing touches for our wedding, ballroom was just beautiful and the food was amazing. They couldn't do enough for us and all our guests.

Where do i begin?

From the very first day booking our wedding with the Clanrd Court, to the whirlwind year we have had and are still in, staff were just amazing. The wedding co-ordinators Emma and Claire were always on hand to help over the two years we were planning our wedding. Our original wedding date was to be in July of this year, and like so many other couples we had to postpone, and set our new date for the end of October (thinking things would be ok). The hotel were so helpful with helping us find a date that suited all our suppliers and ourselves, no task too much. However as weeks went on and things with COVID got worse our new date was in jeopardy. Again the hotel was always in contact whether it was by phone or email to reassure us and help us in any way they could.

The week before the wedding there was so many chopping and changing of restrictions but Emma was always on the phone to me and doing what she could and making new plans. Thankfully the government kept weddings at 25 guests so we decided to plough ahead! The day itself, it was perfect! It was better than I thought it could be given the circumstances. The hotel looked amazing, the food was out of this world, all our guests raved about the food, they really went above and beyond for us even though our guest list had dropped over 90%! So, regardless of 200 or 25 guests they made our day so special, from start to finish. Even the next morning, nothing was too much. The staff from management right down to waiting staff were so friendly and helpful all day throughout.

We would 100% recommend this hotel to any newly engaged couple planning their wedding, you really cant go wrong.

From the moment we booked with the clanard, they were so helpful with the planning and organisation of everything. Our original date was 21 March and the hotel dealt with the whole covid so well. We had our tasting in January and it was literally a week before the wedding when we had to cancel.
Emma and Claire were always at the other end of the phone when needed and there was also a lot of email about rooms etc.

We had our big day with covid restrictions on the 26 september. OUr day was magical. The best we could have imagined. We still had our photo booth and our band. I must have danced all night. the wedding had to end at 11.30 cos of covid but it didn't feel like it. all the staff were so friendly and helpful. The food was delicious and the whole day flowed so well.

i had used the make up artist from the hotel an they were so attentive. they came up to our room and did the make up of my bridesmaids and myself. i really felt pampered and beautiful.

when the 3 of us were fully ready emma came and collected us for our ceremony, which we were able to have outside as the sun was out and the gardens in the clanard were just beautiful.

we were able to get photos in the gardens after an i also got plenty of photos getting ready.

all our guest thoroughly enjoyed the day and some are still talking about it.

Couldn't recommend this hotel enough and we had a great day.

Score: 5 Stars from Lynda Collins on Mon, 26 October, 2020

What can i say... the Clanard court hotel are one in a million! We knew as soon as we stepped into the place that this was the venue for us. The huge welcome and warm family feel that you get in the Clanard is unique and special. We were so well looked after and supported, we felt like we were dealing with friends rather than wedding coordinators. Claire and Emma supported us every step of the way. Especially this year, when we had to reschedule our wedding, the Clanard Court hotel were there to help us through. Every email was answered straight away and there was always somebody at the other end of the phone to answer any questions or concerns. Although they had many couples to help, they always had a way of making us feel like we were the most important ones and that they always had time for us. We never felt like we were a number or just one of many couples in the same boat. We were so well taken care of. We had the best day. Our guests absolutely loved the venue. The staff were so lovely and helpful. Our guests said that by the time they were leaving, they felt like family they knew the staff so well. The food is just amazing. Our dinner was delicious and everyone was absolutely thrilled with the meal. Our package offered a huge variety of food and drink which meant it would suit all our guests and keep everyone happy. The Ballroom is stunning and the grounds and gardens are beautiful for pictures. The decorations the Clanard use to decorate are so tasteful and add such a lovely extra touch. Everything was just perfection from start to finish and nothing was too much to ask from any of the staff. The Clanard Court hotel's attention to detail is just impeccable and I would recommend this venue to anyone and everyone getting married.

The Clanard Court were excellent. Emma, John and Daniel made the day the best it could be and were unbelievably accommodating in such strange circumstance ( covid ). Nothing was ever too much trouble and Emma would answer my emails in a matter of minutes in the run up to the big day. I am delighted we chose this Venue we had a perfect day from start to finish. I could not recommend this hotel enough to anyone thinking of getting married here.

I would highly recommend the Clanard Court as a wedding venue. If you are looking for a personal touch where you feel like the staff and hotel care about your day as much as you do, then choose the Clanard. The wedding coordinators Emma and Claire literally leave no stone unturned in the run up to your big day. They reply to queries and emails so quickly (and I sent a fair few).
On the day itself the operations manager John amazing. He kept us in the loop with what was happening throughout the day and always made sure we were being looked after.
The food was unbelievable. We knew the food was lovely from staying at the Clanard Court on previous occasions and of course the menu tasting. However, when your guests tell you that's the best food they've ever had at a wedding, it's a great feeling. Everyone was raving about the food and the overall ambiance of the hotel. The hotel is so relaxed yet they can't do enough for you.
One thing I remember from my day is pulling up outside the hotel before the ceremony and it was raining. Emma and another member of staff were reading and waiting for me to get out of the car with umbrellas. This made me feel so special and in good hands. It may seem small, but the little touches and the way I was looked after really added to my day. They also provided the groom with the family room to get ready in the morning of the wedding at a good rate. This gave the lads plenty of extra space to get ready. They really just go above and beyond for you. Everyone at our wedding loved the day. It's less than an hour from Dublin which makes it an deal venue if you don't want guests to have to travel too far. Clanard Court is an amazing wedding venue.

Fantastic hotel to get married in. Staff are amazing, wedding planners cant do enough for you.

.

What an absolutely amazing day we had thanks to the wonderful service that was provided by Emma, Claire, Daniel and all the wonderful staff at the Clanard Court Hotel, nothing was too much trouble. The food was amazing and all our guests were extremely impressed with the quality of their meals, we stayed again the next day and some of our family and friends joined us making it 30 people, again the hotel provided us with wonderful service by providing us with a private room and again superb food, I would have no hesitation in saying if you want a wedding that you and your guests will never forget then book the Clanard Court Hotel as they go out of their way to make you feel special and will provide exceptional service.

I honestly don't know where to start we are still getting phone calls about our wedding . This venue along with each and individual staff member went above and beyond for us and our guests . From the day we went to meet to consider the venue the atmosphere and sense of complete and utter professionalism from the word get go , so welcoming and accommodating . We wore treated like royalty every time we paid a visit , and the day itself the food hospitality everything was exactly as it was the day we first went. Actually even better how that was even possible but it was . Emma took a huge part of my stress away and no job was too big or too small she was absolutely outstanding and so caring and interested !!! Which is hard to come by these days . Each and every staff member where absolutely lovely and made us feel so so special and our guests too . I would really advise people to consider this hotel as a venue you certainly will not be let down . The food was absolutely amazing on the day and everything went so so smooth with a big massive thank you to gosha ??.... They really just couldn't do enough and every single one of our guests commented on the beautiful venue but the service they received . It will be a day we will never ever forget and a high thank you to the clanard court for this ??????

Myself and Nick decided in early 2018 to have our Wedding in the Clonard Court Hotel. From minute one the girls Emma and Claire could not do enough to help us with the organising. As the date got nearer any requests we had were never any trouble for the hotel to sort.
Our Day finally arrived. It was a beautiful sunny day and we were so lucky to be able to get married outside. The gardens looked magical and all the staff were great. Gosia was about for the full day till the earlier hours to assist with anything we needed along with all the other staff in the hotel who could not have done enough. The room was decorated lovely the food was superb along with the evening celebrations. We had the most amazing day and have lots of fantastic memories and would do it all over again. I would 110% recommend the Clonard Court Hotel as a wedding venue it was all i wanted and more. 'Simply the Best'

Really cannot fault the staff and service on the Clanard, they went above and beyond for us on our day and everything was outstanding, Emma and Gosia especially are so brilliant at what they do! Would recommend to everyone and the food was to die for. Rooms were beautiful, everyone had a ball and speaks so highly about the hotel to us.

The wedding day was a beautifully day but the hotel made are day so much more special with the staff and the food it was out of this world. So many people had never been there but have all went up since our wedding for food and some has even stayed over. The standards are really out of this world

Claire the wedding planner for the clanard court hotel dealt with our weddin from start to finish. I can not speak highly enough about what she did for us. The organisation the detail of everything and claire made our day so relaxing and stress free. The service was brilliant and friendly and quick. We still have people telling us about the beef it was the nicest they've ever had. Brilliant day all round was had thanks to the clanard staff and especially Claire wow and thank you. 5 star rating but could easily give 10. Thank you.

We had our wedding here on the 5th July 2019 and couldn't have asked for a better day or venue..From the moment we arrived the staff put us at ease and I had so much confidence in them that our day would run perfectly. But we could never have dreamed how amazing it would be. We wanted for nothing and were left to enjoy our day. Our guests are still commenting on the beautiful garden where we held our ceremony and the friendly staff that on more than one occasion went above and beyond for our guests. The food on the day was out of this world also.I could go on and on. We would highly recommend this venue!

Words cannot describe the day we had it was absolutely fabulous. The venue could not have done anything more for us. From the beginning of the planning Claire & Emma were so professional and made us feel so at ease. Nothing was ever a problem. From the moment we arrived and our guests arrived you were made to feel very special. With it been a family run hotel you felt you were joining your extended family as the staff are so professional and friendly and we commend Mary the owner who among others overseen every aspect from start to finish. Everyone of our guests was made feel special and as for us the happy couple - we were treated like royalty. As I have said it is very hard to put into words except - The venue = Perfect, Gardens = Perfect, Food = Perfect, Hospitality = Second to none. Since our wedding day all our guests have come back to us saying the day was perfect and the venue was brilliant. They could not do any more for us. All that's left to say a huge huge thank you to Mary, Emma and Claire and to all the staff for making our day truly truly extra special.

Love and thank you so much Des & Sinead. Mr & Mrs Mulhere

Beautiful hotel and the food was outstanding. Excellent service throughout the day and so helpful in the run up to the wedding. So happy we picked this venue. Everything was perfect whole day was amazing and also the babysitting service was a bonus. Thanks so much.

Best venue could not do enough for us. Made it so eash to plan the wedding. Food was gorgeous

The Clanard Court is by far Ireland's best wedding venue. From the first day we met Emma and Claire we were made feel so at ease and everything ran like clock work from that day until the morning after the wedding - everything was amazing. Nothing was an issue, we didn't have to worry about a thing. They made sure we were totally relaxed and that all we had to do was enjoy our day. A huge number of guests told us it was the best, most relaxing wedding venue they'd been to due the food and room, but most of all because of the hospitality. Emma, Claire, Gosia and all the staff looked after each of us so well; they are true professionals. All of the food from the canapes at the drinks reception right through to breakfast the following morning, was a huge hit with all of the guests, everything was absolutely delicious! A huge thank you to everyone in the Clanard Court for making it the best day we've ever had!

5 stars is just not enough. We cannot recommend The Clanard Court highly enough. All the staff were so wonderful and easy to deal with. Emma and Claire and Gosia are the most helpful people to work with. Nothing was to big or to small to ask of them. They completely exceeded our expectations and went above and beyond for us. All our guests have commented on was how wonderful the meal was. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed the Clanard Court. From the moment we first met with Emma to visit the hotel we were put at ease and just made feel so special and at home. We can't wait to go back and stay again. The Clanard Court is always going to hold such a special place in our hearts. We cannot recommend them enough.

We got married in the Clanard court Hotel on the 13th of April 2019 and it was just an amazing day from start to finish! We cannot thank the Clanard's staff enough for everything. From the moment we booked our wedding here Emma and Claire were always touching base with us to make sure all of our plans were going ok they really made us feel at ease throughout the build up to the big day. On the day itself we were treated like royalty all day the staff really looked after us and cared that we and our guests had the best day. Gosia was just amazing! She made us feel so relaxed and was so family focused, making sure our 2 year old was fed first and taking the time to play with him. We've had so many of our guests coming back to us praising the hotel's food and service. We cannot thank the Clanard Court Hotel enough for making our day so perfect!

We would highly recommend this hotel for your every needs the went obove and beyond for us on our special day thank you to Claire Emma and gosia they were brilliant and all the staff there floor staff, and bar staff were excellent food was 100% highly recommend the clarnard court Hotel

What an amazing experience from when we booked to the day after our wedding. Emma and claire were great always there to help with anything and everything. The day itself ran so smoothly. All the staff were amazing and so friendly. Everyone felt at home and so relaxed. If I was to do it all again I would definitely do it at the clanard. The staff are a credit to the hotel.

The staff at the Clanard Court are genuine and helpful. They go out if their way to make sure that you enjoy your day. No detail is too small and No problem is too big. They are on hand to offer advice and give recommendations, and generally just make your life easier.

Hotel and staff within hotel where amazing and couldn't be more helpful! Only downfall is the cake supplier that's included in the package, she is very unreliable and unprofessional, cooks from her own home with no H&S in place! Doesnt respond to calls or texts and has no sample pictures of previous cakes as she's only started doing wedding cakes! Hotel ended up having to get a new supplier as we still had no cake sorted 5 weeks before our day! That was the one and only downfall for the hotel, other than that I couldn't reccomend this hotel enough

Brilliant and wonderful

We could not have asked for more from the staff at The Clanard Court Hotel. From the day we first walked into the hotel to see it until the morning after the wedding they were nothing short of incredible. Nothing was too big or too small, they were so laid back which helped us to be more relaxed as well. They were just lovely down to earth people and we got on from word go. There was never any pressure from them with deadlines or when decisions had to be made. We simply coud not thank them enough and all our guests commented on how nice the hotel and all the staff were. I honestly can only say positive things about the hotel and if I was to get married again tomorrow it would definitely be in the Clanard Court Hotel!!

From our first meeting with the Clanard Court Wedding Coordinators to our check out the day after our wedding, we felt special.
Every detail of our big day was planned and executed without any issue. Nothing was too big an ask for the staff.
As you all will know the planning of a wedding and hoping all goes well on the day is a constant stress!!
Well we didn't need to worry, as our regular meetings with the wedding coordinators left us with a stress free feeling every time.
Apart from the professional attitude, the competent manner with which all the hotel staff performs their duties, there was a sense of genuine joy from the staff at helping create a perfect experience for our big day.
Our guests complemented us on our choice of venue, the delicious food which was served just as we requested. While we chose it, the Clanard Court created the magical experience for us.
It's not just a day you?ll never forget, it's an experience you will never forget.
Trust the Clanard Court Hotel and Staff to make your day special in every way.

Claire, Emma, Liam, Gosia, Adam & all the team who make the weddings at Clanard Court so special are exceptional at ensuring attention to detail and professionalism in the lead up to, and on, your wedding day. They catered for our every need! There was no such thing as a silly request and they went above and beyond to look after us on our big day.
The food was plentiful and delicious. The staff were so obliging and welcoming towards all of our guests. We knew we were in safe hands from the moment we booked this venue right up to when we arrived on our wedding day!
We can't recommend them highly enough - thanks again for everything!

Well where do I start. From the very beginning when I met with Claire and Emma, I knew this was the venue for us, to have our special day. Anytime, I phoned or emailed with questions regarding our wedding both Emma and Claire were so helpful. No request was too much.

As for the day itself, I may not have had the weather, but that didn't dampen the day. Everything little detail was exemplary, nothing was left to chance. All of my guest raved about the quality of the food to the amazing staff on the day. Gosha, was there for everything throughout the day, and was just amazing. She is such a credit to the hotel. Adam, Gosha, Claire and Emma are such a fantastic team and made our day so relaxed. I would also like to thank all the other staff behind the scenes as well. I couldn't recommend this hotel enough for a wedding. I wish I could do it all over again

What can we say, we had an amazing day. We would like to give special thanks to McGivor!, Gosha and particularly Emma and Claire. All of the staff went above and beyond our expectations, little touches that we didn't expect we were so grateful for and surprised by, so thanks again guys for all you have done, you made our day so special, just about all of our guests have said they were very impressed by the service in the hotel and would love to do it all again!

Great day from start to finish

Amazing food and service. Staff are so welcoming and friendly. The wedding co-ordinators are excellent at what they do we couldn't fault a thing.

I could not fault a single thing about our wedding. Down to the staff that cleaned our rooms, they went above and beyond. Wish we could do it again. All of our guests are still talking about how well everything went.

An absolutely amazing day for our wedding with you from start to finish was perfect nothing at all to fault the staff and service was just done to perfection thank you all for such great memories

We had our special day in the Clanard Court Hotel and we were so thrilled that we chose this venue. In the planning process Claire and Emma were so helpful and couldn't do enough for us,we really appreciated all their effort. On the day itself we were looked after by Gosia who made sure everything went smoothly and her attention to detail was amazing.
,Gosia is certainly a credit to the venue. The staff on the day were so friendly and attentive to ourselves and our guests,its such a perfect venue.The food was excellent and service first rate. Its also worth noting the beautiful garden adjacent to the function room which we found ideal for photographs.
Also special thanks to Liam and Mary for all their kindness and making sure our special day was all we wished it would be.

We had our wedding day on Friday 31st August in the Clanard Court Hotel. From the time we booked Claire was a pleasure to deal with and took all the pressure from us. Everything was perfect. The food was amazing and the service was incredible. Could not recommend this hotel enough.

We could not recomend the clanard hotel enough, from the very onset of our viewing of the venue up to our wedding day everything was to a very high standard. On the day the managment and staff helped to make our wedding day as special as it was. Food was excellent and all of our guests are still talking about it. I had the pleasure of staying at the hotel the night before and the morning of our wedding myself plus my 4 daughters had our makeup done by emma in the revive treatment rooms. My husband myself and our guests were very impressed with the services provided to us and would highly recommend the clanard court to any couple planning their wedding.

We cant say enough good things about the Clanard Court Hotel. The whole team were a pleasure to meet and made our big day very special. Everything was done that we asked and Emma and Claire really made the day go so smoothly with all that they organised. From the rooms to the food it was just brilliant. It was the best day of our lives made even better by a super hotel.

We were delighted with our choice of the Clanard Court Hotel for our Wedding. Emma and Claire were always on hand to help with our preparations and made the whole process easy. All the staff were so helpful throughout the preparations and on the day.
The venue itself is lovely and the large and bright reception area was perfect for our drinks reception. The gardens behind the hotel are lovely for photos and that is where we got most of our photos so we could get back inside join the party!
As for the ballroom it was beautifully laid out. The food was great and plenty of it!
I would have no problem recommending the Clanard Court as a wedding venue for anyone. The hotel specialises in weddings and it is evident in how they approach everything they do. We were delighted with our big day.

Me and my husband had a fantastic day with help off the wedding team to the service and the food we had no complaints on our day . Or any other day as we had a three day wedding . We couldn't off did it without the help off the staff at the clanard hotel they were all amazing and it was great value for money. Me and my husband and our families had the best few days ever. Thank you all the team to the clanard court hotel .

On behalf of myself and my husband the day could not have gone any better. The staff were so amazing that our guests still talk about them.

From start to finish, we only encountered real and passionate staff.
It's been a real pleasure and treat to be looked after the way we've been in the run up to our wedding, on the big day and even the day after! Both of us and all our guests have been treated like vip's and our guests are still talking and raving about the venue, food, service and everything in between.

The hotel and staff were amazing from beginning to end ! Our day was amazing and everyone complimented everything about the hotel and staff . Gosha ( apologies for misspelling ) was absolutely amazing on the day . We would have been. Lost without her . Emma our wedding co ordinator was fantastic and nothing was ever too much trouble . We had an amazing day and would be saying to any couples getting married to visit the clanard and meet with the guys there. Fantastic from start to finish !

Planner Emma was amazing from start to finish, nothing was too much trouble! The manager and staff on the day were fantastic, they made us feel at ease and everything went according to plan. I couldnt recommend this hotel enough, great value for money and the staff are superb. You will have the best day - we did!!

From the beginning to the end of our wedding day clanard where just brilliant, everything went super smooth...their level of professionalism and standards are amazing. Service and food excellent. Thank you so much...

We got married in the Clanard Court Hotel on the 15th of June and it was the most magical day of our lives. From the moment we first visited the hotel I knew we would be in safe hands. Claire and Emma are fantastic, and in the lead up to the wedding they were on hand for any queries I may have had, nothing was too much trouble. The wedding day itself went like clockwork, the hotel looked beautiful and everyone commented on how amazing the food and atmosphere was in the hotel. Liam and Claire were out of this world on the day of the wedding and I can honestly say I wouldn't have felt comfortable leaving the biggest and most important day of our lives in the hands of any other hotel.

Fantastic experience from start to finish made our wedding day so easy and hassle free nothing was ever a problem beautiful ppl and beautiful hotel in fact some of my guests have visited the hotel since. Thanks again clanard court hotel...su Robbie

We celebrated our wedding here on the 2nd of June 2018. It was so special! Everything was handled professionally from the planning of the day to every small detail on the day. The food and accommodation was excellent and the set up of the room. We would highly recommend the Clanard Court Hotel

We got married in May this year. All the staff in the Clanard court worked so hard to make sure we had an amazing day. We were organising our wedding from the UK where we live, Claire & Emma worked so hard to make everything as easy as possible. They were so flexible with arranging meetings that suited us & even organising a tasting for when we were home. Our day was so relaxed & everyone really enjoyed it.

From the moment we met Emma at the Clanard we knew she wanted the best day for us. We just got on so well. From the wedding fair to the tasting to the actual day we always felt they were part of the team. On the day Gosha looked after us and all our family and friends commented on how helpful and friendly the staff were. The food was amazing and the little touches that they did from assembling our donut table and personalizing it to giving our son exactly what dessert he wanted that wasn't even in the menu, they couldn't do enough. I've already recommended this hotel to my friend who's recently gotten engaged.

Claire was so helpful throughout the build up to our wedding. On the day the staff could not do enough for us. We didn't have to worry about anything. Absolutely beautiful hotel with fabulous food.

From start to finish myself and my husband cannot fault the Clanard Court for a thing. In fact they went above and beyond to accommodate us. We originally picked the Clanard Court because of its beautiful private garden as we wished for an outdoor wedding. But the more contact we had with the hotel the more we fell in love with the place. Every staff member from reception to the wedding planners to the bar men and waitresses were so lovely. My brother fell ill a few months before our wedding and we were worried about having to move the wedding date...Clare and Emma 100% reassured me that the date could be changed without losing our deposit or the package we booked they really were amazing during a tough time.
We have 3 little dogs we wanted in our wedding and the hotel had no problem with it they organised a safe place to keep them while we were busy and allowed us to have them in the garden for photos we were so delighted.
Our day was amazing not one thing went wrong even when extra guests turned up the hotel dealt with the table planner and squeezed them in no problem. We even received a beautiful gift from the hotel left in our bridal suite for us. Many guests still talk about the food... mainly the sticky toffee pudding!!... amazing!!!!
If we were to do it all again we would absolutely pick the Clanard Court and do it all the same again.
If you are looking for a small and intimate venue with friendly staff amazing food and a fabulous ballroom with private garden the Clanard Court is for you :)

Couldn't be more happier with our hotel selection for our wedding. They are just super at what they do and made everything about organising a wedding so easy. We had a magical day. Couldn't reccommend more. They're the best around by far ! ????

Our day was perfect from start to finish. All of the staff are great at their jobs and went out of their way to make everyone feel so welcome. Many of our guests commented at how friendly all the staff were. Claire, Emma, Goisha and Adam deserve special mention. If you?re looking for a home away from home for your big day this is the venue for you.

We had our wedding in March in the Clarard. I couldn't fault it, from start to finish the day was spectacular. The staff are brilliant, catering for your every need, nothing is a problem. I 100% recommend the Clanard for a wedding. You won't be disappointed.

Our experience with the Clanard Court Hotel was an absolute pleasure from our first meeting with the team to the big day itself. Claire and Emma were invaluable in helping us plan the wedding and their advice and professional expertise made the planning experience so much more enjoyable.

As our wedding day approached, we watched weather reports in horror as the Beast from the East threatened to gatecrash our wedding in the worst way possible! I read story after story of hotels forced to cancel weddings because of the huge snowstorm and, with guests from the U.S. just managing to land in time before flights were grounded, my worst nightmare of my wedding not going ahead was more of a possibility.

On the morning of 1 March, the day before our wedding, I received a call from our Registrar confirming he had been directed not to travel to our wedding venue. At this point, we were devastated.

It was then that the true magic of the Clanard Court Hotel became evident. Mary Fennin, the owner, assured us that our wedding would be going ahead and personally put us in contact with another wedding celebrant who lived locally. At this point, our photographer had phoned to say he was snowed in and couldn't make the wedding. Magically, another local photographer contacted us and offered her services.

On the morning of the wedding, it was evident that at least half of our expected guests could not travel to the wedding. We had our hearts set on the ballroom for our reception venue with its magnificent view of the hotel garden, which the snow had transformed into a winter wonderland. The amazing staff ensured that the room looked cozy and intimate.

Everything about our wedding day was magical and our beautiful, snowy wedding photos serve as a permanent reminder of our perfect wedding in the perfect venue. With over and above service, the Clanard Court delivered us the perfect wedding day.

The Clanard Court was the first hotel we looked at and we knew when we walked in this was the place we wanted to have our wedding in from the first viewing to the day of our wedding Clare and Emma and Liam on the day were there for any questions we had and anything we asked for we got. They also advised us on certain things to do that you wouldnt no to do. I have to say every member of staff were brilliant very friendly and helpfull not only on the wedding day but anytime we went down. You can get makeup done in the hotel from Emma who is great at wat she dose. All in all this is a great hotel for a wedding and I would definitely recommended it to anyone thinking of getting married

Myself and my husband Niall honestly wouldn't know where to start when it comes to this hotel. We had our wedding here and it was just such an amazing experience. From the moment we First met with Emma she was brilliant , herself and Claire were always at the end of an email and couldn't do enough for us. Liam looked after us at our meal taster and on the day of our wedding and he couldn't do enough for us. We had a big wedding with 245 people sitting for the meal and all our guests commented on how great and Efficient the service was. Thank you again guys xx

This hotel was just a dream to deal with. The wedding coordinator was fabulous. Our guests are still talking about the amazing food and fantastic service that they all received on the day. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a wedding venue.

We got married in the Clanard Court on the 11th of November 2017. We had the most amazing day!! From planning our wedding right up to the day after our wedding all the staff went above and beyond for us and our guests. All our guests loved the hotel! The food was delicious from the little nibbles after the ceremony to the main meal to the midnight snacks.
We had our ceremony there too and along with the function room the decor and ambience was amazing! It felt so magical and romantic.
I really can't say anything negative about the Clanard Court.
Even when we have stayed there before our wedding all staff were always very pleasant and so helpful.
Plus the hotel itself has such a homely feel to it and you feel a warm welcome.
We will look forward to staying there in the future again and we will treasure the memories we made!

From start to finish our experience with the Clanard Court was amazing! A hidden gem in athy ...everything was perfect. The staff are so frendly and had everything under control the food, and atmosphere was also amazing. I would highly recommend this venue.

We met with Claire 1 of the wedding planners on the 28/06/17 and from that moment we knew that the Clanard was the place for us, The relaxed atmosphere, the friendly staff and the hotel itself was spotless. Claire explained all the packages and showed us some of the guest bedrooms which were amazing. We decided instantly to go with the Clanard after meeting with Claire.From there it only got better, Claire introduced us to Emma who was the other wedding planner and I must say they could not have done enough for us, They both stayed in contact via email up to the final day,They sent us loads of info and different links to there online wedding planning site. We went down for our menu tasting and the food was fabulous, We asked could we change something on 1 of the dishes and as expected it was no problem. We had guest staying in the hotel from the thursday to the Saturday as the wedding was on a friday, They had lunch there on the Thursday when they arrived and were that impressed they had Dinner there again that night. On the day of the wedding Mary took over and boy did she take over, She met us when we arrived, helped the Bride out of the car and then gave us both champagne, then told us to enjoy our special day and she would do the rest. She asked the names of the bestman and the grooms man and they would be her go to men if there was any problems, that way she could let us enjoy every moment of the day, but she didnt leave it there, every now and again she would pop over and just ask is everything ok and if you need anything just let me know. The food was served at 6pm and the only thing I can say it was savage we would recommend the Lamb 75% of our guest had it.The next morning all our guest could talk about was the Food,Staff,Hotel,Bedrooms and Mary they were all very impressed as were we. We were as important the morning after as the night before, We were told to take our time and dont rush just enjoy every last moment. Emma,Claire,Mary & Staff ye were amazing

Unbelievable hotel. We're delighted to have had our wedding day here. Couldn have asked for anymore from the hotel management and staff.. beautiful food and a beautiful venue. 5star

We got married in the Clanard Court in October 2017 & from the moment we arrived into the hotel the reception we got was amazing. They were so welcoming and helpful. The quality of the food was amazing. We were so well looked after, nothing we asked wa a problem, they were only too happy to help.They made it completely stress free and were fantastic on the day. Spotless clean and cosy hotel. Highly recommend for any engaged couples to check the Clanard Court out!

We loved everything about our wedding at the Clanard Court hotel. The staff were amazing and so accommodating. The food was beautiful and all of our guests raved about how hot everything was coming out and how tasty it was. The smallest details were catered for the girls looking after us beforehand, Claire and Emma were brilliant. The staff on the day were also fantastic. There was a man that had only started working there and he looked after everything along with his colleague and really kept things calm and moving nicely on the morning. There was a girl who looked after my nephew during the meal and his mam says she went out of her way to accommodate for him and all the parents with kids said the same. I couldn't recommend it more highly. The Clanard met all of our expectations and beyond. Thanks to you all.

Thank you to Emma, Claire & John for making our wedding an amazing day & night! All our guests were raving about it! The venue, atmosphere, food, accommodation & residents bar were fantastic! Any small hiccups that happened on the day were quickly sorted by a member of staff without our guests even noticing. We would highly recommend the Clanard Court Hotel to everyone. We look forward to visiting in the future! :)

Amazing staff.

We had our wedding in the Clanard Court Hotel in late Aug.

From day one we were blown away by all the staff and how fantastic they were to deal with. Every member of staff looked after us so well. Emma and Claire, the two wedding coordinators were exceptional, and there was never any trouble contacting them.

The venue itself is in a great location. The food was phenomenal. The guests commented how good it was and its plentiful portions. The Sticky Toffee pudding was without doubt, the nicest dessert I have ever had.

We couldn't have asked for the day to go better. Thanks to all in the Clanard for making the day the what it was :)

The Clanard Court Hotel made our wedding day the best experience of our lives. From start to finish, the staff at any request was extremely professional and unbelievably efficient. Not one complaint from any of the guests or ourselves. The food was the best we have ever had at any weddings we have been privileged to be asked to. I have and will highly recommend The Clanard Court hotel for a wedding or in fact any occasion.

We had our wedding in the Clanard in July and I have to say from start to finish we were fantastically looked after thanks to all the staff for your help while I was planning my wedding. I have to say from the time I set foot into the Clanard to look around I was made to feel very welcome. The staff are extremely helpful and friendly and they made my choice of venue for my wedding easy. The wedding was amazing and both James and I had the best day of our lives (apart from when our children were born of course!). Our guests enjoyed every minute of our reception. From the moment they entered the doors of the hotel they were made feel welcome and were given the tastiest of treats along with refreshing cocktails. The children had the best time running around the enclosed garden which was great and meant all parents could relax knowing their children were safe. The hotel reception area was bright, clean and perfect for the guests arrival. The staff kept the area glass and litter free and were on hand to help with any questions and queries. The waiting and bar staff were extremely professional, courteous and friendly. Guests were served promptly and shown respect at all times. They are a credit to the hotel and are definitely what makes your hotel so great. The feedback we received from everyone was exceptional. The reception was laid out fabulously. The flowers and centre pieces on the tables added to its beauty.The food for our reception dinner was out of this world, served hot and promptly. My guests could not believe the quality and taste of the food; and there was plenty of it. They were amazed when trays arrived with seconds! Management and staff on the day made sure we were well looked after. The duty manager did an amazing job and kept us informed throughout the day and looked after us really well ensuring our drinks and food were topped up. The food for our afters was delicious also; even the band enjoyed it. Thank you so very much for making our day so wonderful.

Just got Married at the Clanard court hotel last weekend and couldn't be more satisfied with the service, the staff and the Food. From day one of looking at this hotel the staff were amazing. They are extremely flexible to help make the day what we wanted. Having wedding co-ordinators Claire and Emma and a great events manager James and events team made the day so relaxing and stress free for us knowing the hotel had everything in place.
The food was amazing, everyone couldn't stop complimenting the food on the day and the bbq the next day.
Would highly recommend the clanard as a wedding venue . We had an amazing day and wouldn't change any of it.
Massive thanks to all the staff at the Hotel.

We had our wedding in the Clanard Court Hotel in July 2017. From day one the wedding team, Emma and Claire, were unbelievably helpful and accommodating. In the lead up to our big day the sales team checked in on us often to make sure everything was going according to plan and always kept us informed on what needed doing. On the day itself we honestly couldn't have asked for better. We wish that we knew everybody's names to thank them individually. A number of family members and guests had allergies and intolerances and they were all provided for so well, something that isn't always taken as a given in hotels and restaurants. We would like to thank the hotel especially for this. The food was beautiful and very well presented. The guests were talking about it for weeks afterwards. The day ran so smoothly and the managers James and Liam ensured that we were kept informed of the different stages. From the bottom of our hearts we would like to thank the entire team in the Clanard Court, both the front of house and those working behind the scenes that we didn't get to thank personally. We will always remember our day fondly and owe much of that to the hotel.

There is no feedback needed to help future couples. Everything went so smoothly. It was just perfect.

We had the pleasure of having our civil ceremony and wedding reception at the Clanard Court Hotel on the 16th June 2017. I cannot express enough how happy we both were with how everything went on the day, not to mention the professionalism and help which we received from the wedding coordinators with our preparations beforehand which, as a bride to be, made my job in preparing everything a lot easier. The hotel itself was the perfect setting for our wedding, the setting for our civil ceremony was set up beautifully as was the function room for our reception. James, our co-ordinator for the day was on hand at every aspect to ensure that everything ran according to plan and everything went so smoothly, I had nothing to worry about! All staff, down to reception, bar tenders, waiters etc. were extremely professional, easy to deal with and very courteous. The food was fabulous, every course was delivered on time and extremely quickly so that no table was waiting too much longer than another. There was nothing I could fault about the Clanard on my special day and I would highly recommend it for anyone thinking of getting married here.

Amazing hotel, amazing staff. James Gleeson is just the man, nothing he couldn't do for us. The ceremony room was just beautiful, the food was hot & plentiful. Highly recommend this hotel.

Great venue and we where both delighted with everything on the day and still are. Staff so helpful on the lead up to wedding and also afterwards. Highly recommend booking a wedding here.

From the minute we got engaged I knew I wanted our reception in the Clanard. We came home from Australia and made an appointment with Emma.
Just meeting with Emma and then Claire we knew this was the place for us.
They both made planning from Australia a breeze and amazing to work with, nothing was an issue and gave great advice.
Our day went off without a hitch and we can't thank them enough.
James dealt with us on the day and he was brilliant.
Everything from the staff to the food was amazing.
All our guests still rave about the day and their stay at the Clanard court hotel.
I can't recommend Claire, Emma and team highly enough

We had an amazing day st the Clanard Court Hotel for our Wedding in May. The wedding co-ordinators were so helpful with everything in the run up to our wedding. They made the planning such a breeze. On the day, management and staff couldn't do enough for us. The service and food was outstanding. Highly recommend The Clanard Court again

Highly recommended. Staff and service were exceptional.

I can honestly only say amazing things about Clanard Court Hotel. Our experience from start to finish was so pleasant and our wedding day just perfect!! All of the staff are so professional and we felt so relaxed knowing they would take care of everything!! The quality they offer was worlds apart when I compared it to other venues and so many of our guests commented on this and especially on the food which was just beautiful!! I could not recommend this venue more! They know exactly what they are doing leaving you with nothing to worry about except enjoying your special day!!

This hotel is absolutely fantastic. Both myself and my wife have countlessly referred to how amazing a venue the Clanard Court was for our wedding and we have always looked back with the fondest of memories at how everything was handled for our day. The staff have such an eye for detail and are simply brilliant at putting your mind at ease about how everything will run! That kind of peace of mind is really priceless when it comes to your wedding day and this was the reputation that preceded the Clanard Court when we started researching venues.
The food is spectacular, we were really impressed with the huge range on the menu to begin with and numerous guests commented about the quality of the food at our wedding which is great to hear.
In short, this is the kind of venue I would gladly recommend with complete confidence to anyone who has yet to decide on the venue for their special day. You will certainly not be disappointed and will be able to look back at your wedding without regretting a thing! These guys will take care of you!

On the 15/04/17 we had our amazing wedding in the Clanard court hotel in Athy, from the very first time we stepped into the Clanard we knew we had chosen an amazing venue for our wedding.

Planning a wedding can usually be so stressful but with claire & Emma everything was made so simple nothing too big or small was an issue and they made you feel so confident that everything would go to plan.

The day of our wedding was pure bliss, I stayed the night before and had the most relaxing night & made to feel so special everybody knew I was the bride to be and they couldn't have been nicer or more helpful. The next morning I had an amazing breakfast to set me up for the day ahead. Hazel at reception was so helpful during the morning helping me with all the little bits that needed to be done.

From the ceremony to reception everything went like a dream, I knew that had everything under control and was able to get on with enjoying our day with not a worry in the world. The meal was out of this world and all the guests very extremely complimentary on the venue & food which is so important.

I could go on and on about this amazing venue but I'd be here all day, all I can say to finish it off is to say anybody getting married should choose the Clanard and I guarantee they won't be disappointed.

A very had bride & groom

Well what can we say! 5 stars just simply is not enough for this venue. I don't know where to begin and hope I don't miss anything but from start to finish the Clanard Court has been nothing but amazing to us. We got married here on March 25th 2017 and it was out of this world.

When we first went to check it out we met with Emma, wedding co-ordinator, and she was so lovely and nice. We communicated well over the 20 months or so and she was very responsive and beyond helpful, nothing was a bother for her. Everything we asked and queried was no hassle to her at all which made it so much easier for us when we weren't sure ourselves what we were doing. Then on our menu taster night we got to meet James and he was so lovely too. He gave each couple plenty of attention and was very reassuring. On the approach to the big day we just didn't have any worries or cause for concern.

We had an on site civil ceremony and even when I arrived, and I won't lie but I was a little emotional, James was there to reassure me again. Our guests loved it too and a lot of them have since asked us "where did you find this place!!" Because it was so nice. The food on the day was delicious, the breakfast, everything. We stayed an extra night and the Sunday was Mother's Day. It was fantastic and all the staff from management to bar staff and housekeeping to waiting staff were all so friendly and nice, not to mention John from the bar :)

We cannot recommend Emma and James in the Clanard Court Hotel highly enough! You won't be let down!! There was no chance we'd have had our wedding anywhere else!!!
Thanks again guys,
Tracey & Rory

Could not thank the Clanard court hotel enough for making our special day the most relaxed and enjoyable day ever , the staff couldn't of helped us any more than what they did on the day, we are so happy we picked this hotel, it's stunning and on stunning grounds. The food is delicious and everyone complimented the food/hotel on the day. We stayed and had second day celebrations and rented out a small function room, it was so ideal, we also got some finger food for that day which was great, I have not one bad thing to say about this hotel highly recommend it. Can't wait to come back for our first year anniversary.
Kind regards Emer & Tadhg.

We celebrated the best day of our lives in the clanard this year . march 16th 2017. our wedding day was so amazing down to the wonderful staff at the clanard. Claire was our wedding planner and this woman is amazing. nothing was ever a problem for Claire . she went above and beyond for us. The day itself was just superb. I can't believe it's all over . even when we partied till the early hours of the morning the bar staff still had a smile on their faces . the meal was amazing, the arrival drinks amd canape's were amazing. Everything was amazing. superb hotel. amazing wedding venue. Both myself and my sister have had our weddings here and I'm still recommending the hotel to everyone.

Absolutely fantastic hotel, From start to finish they made our day perfect. I would highly recommend to any couple getting married. The Wedding Co-ordinators Claire & Emma are fantastic, From the first viewing of the hotel Claire she made me feel comfortable and she listened to what i wanted and nothing was a problem. The hotel on the day was like clockwork. The manager on the night made sure we were happy and if they was anything we needed. The food was outstanding the staff were amazing. There was enough staff to cater for all the guests The hotel its self is beautiful, Great for photos also has lovely gardens outside.The hotel made it all about us and made us feel very welcome and important on the day.

Great value. Went out of their way to make the preparations as easy as possible and to provide us with whatever we needed no matter how small or big the request. They weren't at all demanding like many venues can be and everything was done with our wishes to the forefront. The day itself was perfect without a single issue needing our attention.

The venue was lovely and great location for on site pictures. The staff were great and made the day very stress free and relaxing. They really are a great team and have to say I would recommend this hotel for any friends and family planning their big day. Definitely a place to visit :)

From start to finish the Clanard Court staff were excellent in all our dealings with them. The food and service on the day could not have been better. We were very happy with the service and attention that we got and we would definitely recommend this hotel to any couple planning a wedding. As well as great service, the hotel has lovely gardens and outdoor spaces, perfect for wedding photos. We are looking forward to our complimentary first anniversary stay there!

I found the wedding co-ordinator and hotel staff to be very professional, helpful and accommodating to my wedding requirements. The food and management of the wedding day were top class and I would have no hesitation in recommending this hotel as a wedding venue. Most of my guests commented on how good the food was and how impressed they were with the hotel in general. I was very happy with the whole experience.

To all the team at the Clanard Court Hotel thank you so much for you excellent service and all your help on our wedding day.

The Clanard court was the first wedding venue we visited and we fell in love with it from the start. We went to view others in preparation for our wedding but no other venue came close. The staff from that first meeting right up to the wedding day were very helpful and professional. As many couples would have we had plenty of questions and special requests which were all dealt with very easily by wedding co-coordinators Claire and Emma.
On the day we had forgotten one or two items for our themed tables but the manager James had arranged for a staff member to run out and collect the items we forgot which was so helpful.
Throughout the day and evening the team were available to help with any requests we had.
The food at a wedding is so important and the team at the Clanard Court did an excellent job on our wedding along with the food the following morning.
Many of the compliments we got from our guests were on how well the day went and how good the food was. We were so happy with it ourselves and simply couldn't of done it without the fantastic team at the Clanard Court Hotel.
We couldn't recommend them highly enough and we want to thank them once again for helping make our wedding day so memorable and special.

We had the pleasure of having our wedding here in September 2016. Before arranging to meet with the hotel we read all the reviews about the friendly staff and the great food at this hotel, these reviews are 100% correct. The first evening that we met with the hotel we were instantly made feel welcome and comfortable. This was important for us as some venues were a little awkward dealing with two brides and the same sex wedding. After we made the decision to book this venue we had the pleasure of dealing with Claire one of the wedding co-ordinators. Claire was always on hand to anwser any questions we had and was great for giving us some tips/ideas for our big day. On the day of the wedding we could not have been looked after any better. Everything ran smoothly and any last minute requests were no problem. For us we loved everything about this venue. The staff being so friendly and helpful makes the day that little bit more relaxing as you know you're in safe hands. After the wedding our guests all commented on how great the food was and the most common comment about the day was "Jesus the staff couldn't do enough for you, some spot"! Our photographer was also impressed with the lovely garden and the alpacas for some great photos. We would highly recommend booking this venue for your big day. You won't be disappointed.

Absolutely amazing hotel always there when you need them and can't do enough to make your day magical I would highly recommend the clanard court hotel to any further brides and grooms.

Fantastic hotel - we fell in love with it the first time we visited. Staff were so friendly and the food was devine. Emma & Claire looked after us every single step of the way, and helped us out in every way we needed. The Wedding Day went by without a flaw. Staff were efficient and food was spectacular. Some of our guests were surprised that even for a big wedding that the standard of food didn't drop - and that's not something you'll always hear!
James was the Manager on duty for our Wedding and he was great - great personality and there to make sure your wedding is better than you could have even hoped.
We had an amazing day and we look forward to calling in again in the future.
We would recommend The Clanard Court Hotel to friends and family in the future.

Fantastic venue and staff. From the moment we arrived till checking out the next day. Our guests had only good things to say about this hotel. A couple who were at our wedding have booked their own here for August 2018.

Fantastic venue, staff are amazing! A highly professional and friendly atmosphere and service. Truly memorable and relaxed atmosphere for all the guests. Bedrooms need a little modernisation however the wedding reception room, garden and most of all the staff are without a doubt spectacular. Cannot praise the staff of the clanard court enough.

We got married here on 6th Aug, and from the day we booked with Geraldine at the wedding fair to the day itself nothing was ever too much trouble. Claire was always on hand and was very helpful with any queries we had. Mary & Liam gave us great advise at our menu tasting which we really appreciated. The food on the day was top class and the staff were fantastic. We were lucky enough to be able to get married outside in the beautiful gardens. It was the best day of our lives. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend the Clanard Court to anyone, the venue is outstanding and the staff are so friendly. A big thank you to all the staff for making our day so special.

We had our wedding in the Clanard in July 2016 and it was absolutely perfect! From the beginning of the planning process right the way through to the big day and beyond the staff were incredibly helpful and professional. Leading up to the wedding everybody was warning me to be prepared for something to go wrong but I can honestly say that nothing did, everything was absolutely perfect and the credit has to go to the hard-working staff who looked after us on the day. I would recommend the Clanard Court Hotel without a single hesitation, and I look forward to returning many times in the future!

We were guests at a wedding here in July and we had an amazing time. From the time we arrived and checked in till the time we left the next day, everyone was so helpful and friendly. The food was lovely and the setting is gorgeous, looking out onto the gardens. Everyone at the wedding had a great time and were all complimenting the hotel and the staff.

I honestly cannot fault the hotel or any part of the service we received, everything was amazing. All of the staff from the wedding planners Emma & Claire to the waiters and waitresses in the function room were so professional and friendly all of the time. Nothing was too much trouble especially in the planning stages, every question i had was answered promptly and every request was catered to. I had lots of drop outs the day before my wedding and had to rearrange the table plan and Emma did this all with me with ease. They really helped take the stress out of it. Food was amazing and excellent value for money, everyone commented on the food about how nice it was and plenty of it. The Clanard packages are excellent as they inlcude everything you need and you don't have to worry about hidden extras, it's all listed in the package details. Lobby, bar area, toilets, etc are all spotlessly clean and well attended to. I cannot recommend this hotel highly enough for your big day.

I couldn't thank Claire and the Clonard Court enough. My day was perfect. So organised and every little detail I asked for done with no problem. Highly recommend.

We got married in the Clanard court in May 2016 and I can honestly say it was the best day of our lives. It was the first and only hotel we went to look at and fell in love straight away. We booked the hotel in May 2014 and from the very first meeting we knew we would be well looked after. Claire was outstanding on the lead up to our big day and took all of our queries seriously no matter how small or silly they were. On the day itself we had James looking after us who made the day run so smoothly and we felt like royalty from the minute we arrived. Everyone had such good things to say about the food it was gorgeous and the room was beautiful. From when we arrived to the hotel right up until we went to bed and even the following day we really felt so important. We cannot wait to return to the hotel again so thank you so much for making our day as special as it was.

We had our wedding ceremony and reception at the Clanard Court Hotel in April 2016 and we couldn't have been happier. Our wedding co-ordinator was Emma Ferris and she was absolutely amazing. The Wedding Day went by without a flaw. Staff were efficient and food was spectacular. James was the Manager on duty for our Wedding day and he was great - everything was perfect because of his great personality and professionalism and attention to detail. We had an amazing day and we look forward to calling in again in the future. We would highly recommend the Clanard Court Hotel for its magnificent venue and excellent wedding co-ordinators. The owners of the hotel gave us a gift and the staff gave us beautiful memories that we and our families will cherish forever. THANK YOU

We had an amazing time at the Clanard. They couldn't do enough for us and our family and friends. Everyone commented on all the extra bits the hotel did for us. They are still talking about it. I wish I could do it all again.

We got married in the clanard at the end of February 2016, and loved every second of it. We knew that gay marriage was on everyone's tongue towards the referendum, and although we had met with other hotels, Claire and Emma were the first to treat us like any other couple instead of a gay couple. This to us was hugely important. Every moment of the day was scripted out, and we even had the hotel manager coordinating our day! The staff were so helpful and professional at all times. When a few of us were still up at 4am in the residence bar, the night chef had taken upon himself to make us a few platters of sandwiches! Also all the rooms are on the complete other side of the hotel, away from the function rooms, which means you can party till all hours and your sleeping guests won't know!

We frequent the clanard at least once a month for a Sunday roast. The staff recognise us, remember our names, these are The important things.

Honestly, I'd get married again tomorrow, and would be quite happy In a loop. It was the best day of our lives, and the team in the clanard made it magical and so special. I know how hard it is choosing the right hotel for your wedding, we've been there, been to the wedding shows, met with umpteen hotel wedding coordinators. Just make the clanard the top of your list. You won't regret it.

I just wanted to post a quick review about our wedding day in the Clanard Court but didn't know exactly what to say so we have decided the best review we could post would be to post the letter that we sent to the Clanard Court Staff after our wedding day.


Dear Claire & Liam

Could you please pass on the below message and thanks to your entire staff.

Hi Guys, (CLANARD COURT STAFF)

I do not know if you remember myself Mark and my new husband Chris but we got married in the Hotel on Friday the 12th of Feb 2016. We both just wanted to send an open letter of thanks to you guys.

Mark & Chris

From the moment we stepped into The Clanard Court Hotel, we knew it was the perfect venue for our winter wedding. There was such a warm, friendly atmosphere& immediately we were made to feel at home. From the initial meeting to the wedding day itself everything was planned perfectly and Emma was on hand to answer all our questions and no task was too big. The hotel catered for all our needs and looked after all our guests both coming up to the big day and on the wedding day itself. The staff at Clandard Court are both friendly, professional and made us all feel so welcome. Our wedding was a Chirstmas wedding and the hotel was decorated beautifully and elegantly which helped when getting our photographs taken. Many of our guests commented on how wonderful the staff were, how beautiful the hotel was& how amazing the food was. I would highly recommend this hotel for a wedding. Both the venue and staff helped to make our day magical.

We had the pleasure of having our wedding in the Clanard Court Hotel on the 9th of October 2015. ?
It was the most enjoyable day and lived up to all our expectations. From the time that we first went to view the venue until
our wedding day we found all the staff at the hotel professional, friendly and accommodating. No request was too much
trouble. ?
At the menu tasting a few weeks prior to the wedding the food was exceptional and there was plenty of very
knowledgeable staff at hand to deal with any queries or requirements that we had. And also to advise us what wine would
best accompany our food choices. The menu was full and varied and each dish nicer than the last. ?
I cannot thank our wedding co-ordinator Geraldine enough, she was always at the end of the phone with any queries we
may have. She was also great in an advisory role making sure we had all the I's dotted and the T's crossed especially in the
few days prior to the wedding.?
The venue itself is very impressive with the extensive high ceilings and very comfortable seating in the lobby. The grounds
are beautiful and we were able to take some fabulous photographs at the hotel.?
All of the feedback that we got from our guest has been positive and all said that it was a great wedding. They all
commented on how friendly the staff were and that the food was top notch.
I cannot recommend the Clanard Court Hotel enough. Everybody envolved made our day very special. If any couple is
considering this venue we would have no hesitation in saying go for it!
Caroline and Eddie Haslam.

We had our wedding in the Clanard on the 3rd of October 2015 we have to say was the best day of our lives thanks to all
the staff at the hotel especially Brian and Geraldine. The food was exceptional and the running of the whole day. All of our
guests had only good things to say about every aspect of the day. I would 100% recommend the Clanard for service and
friendly staff and helping me relax on the most nerve racking day of my life, they made me feel at ease. Thank you all at the
Clanard and we will definitely be back for dining experiences X

We got married on 18th September 2015 and had our reception in the Clanard Court. ?
I cannot rate them highly enough. Everything was perfect on the day. We only finalized our menu and numbers on the last
week, they were so laid back and nothing was a problem.
The day ran so smoothly, we were a bit late back to the reception as our photos took a bit longer than expected. They
pushed back the dinner call by half an hour and it was no problem at all. ?
In fact the day ran so smoothly that the only time I spoke to any of the hotel staff on the day was when we were getting
organized to do the speeches. They took care of everything and we had nothing to do only enjoy the day.
All of our guests really enjoyed the day and found it very relaxing and the atmosphere was very laid back and homely. They
were raving about the food and the staff, how good it was and how everyone was offered a second helping of everything.
Many said it was the best wedding meal they had ever gotten! The food was served to each table very quickly and
efficiently. The staff are excellent.
If you are considering a venue in Kildare, then I urge you to book the Clanard Court. I have been to a lot of weddings the past
couple of years and the Clanard Court will not be beaten on the quality of the service and staff, the quality of the wedding
meal, the ease of organizing everything or the value for money.
I know it is a big decision to chose a venue, as its such a big day and such a big outlay, but you will not be disappointed if
you chose the Clanard Court.

I got married in the Clanard Court Hotel on the 28th of August this year,I have to say I could not of picked a better place from
the moment we booked or wedding claire emma an Geraldine couldn't have done enough,the attention to detail was second to none the food was out of this world, the staff was so good an friendly to my husband an i an our guests,Brian looked after us an I don't have the words to describe how professional he is he made our day so special an stress free I could not highly
recommend this hotel enough for a wedding amazing place.

If hotels were rated more than 5 stars then The Clanard Court would be well up there, this hotel is pure amazing and relaxing. My 1st time to the hotel was for a friends wedding in June of 2012 and then another friend July 2012 & i couldn't fault the service or manner of staff. On both occasions day ran so smooth staff were pleasant, helpful & food was to die for. Now i know people often say oh hotels go out for weddings if normal day it wouldn't be as relaxed or friendly well i can tell you The management & Staff in The Clanard Court are friendly & helpful all year around whether you there for relaxing night away, a meal, few drinks or an occasion. The service and politeness is 100% all year around 24/7.
It was in this hotel that my husband decided he wanted to save for a ring & propose, after he popped the question New years eve 2012 we were both excited to visit the Clanard Court as soon as possibly to see for our wedding & it didn't disappoint that we booked in February 2013 two and half years before our wedding. Those 2 & half years flew in & the wedding team Nicola, Emma & Geraldine were always only a call or email away for any queries we had. Think poor Martina was sick of us calling but as ever she was so pleasant & friendly always asking how our plans were going anytime we called or went out for a meal.

Leading up to the wedding the hotel couldn't do enough for us that I was so calm that i never had one worry about the hotel. They are always on the ball - the night before the wedding i sent an email about 10pm to request a stool for a guest to prop leg up as they had only broken it & needed to keep it raised & there was no problem it was all done. The room & lobby was set up day went so calm that all my guests said it was the most relaxing wedding they ever attended.

even if i ever won lotto & could afford to jet off and do my wedding all over again i'd still pick the Clanard Court because not only are you getting your venue, your getting a wonderful team of people who go above & beyond to make your day one you will remember for a long time.

We had our wedding reception at Clanard Court hotel on the 31st of July. The Clanard Court was an excellent venue. The
hotel, the food and especially the staff were wonderful in every way. We could not have asked for anything more for our
wedding! Claire and all of the staff at the hotel were incredibly helpful. We would highly recommend this hotel and would like
to thank Claire and all of the staff for making our day so wonderful!!
