Farnham Estate Spa and Golf Resort

Danielle, Rachel and all of team at Farnham could not have made our wedding more seamless. It was enjoyed by all and every single one of our guests couldn’t find any flaws. From the food to the rooms to the service. The attention to detail was second to none. Nothing was an issue. Most guests have already mentioned that they will be returning for a weekend as will we. So sad it’s all over. Thank you so much for creating an unforgettable weekend for us and all our guests. It was phenomenal from start to finish.

From the moment we arrived we were blown away by how kind and helpful the staff were they couldn’t have done enough from us, even during our busy wedding ceremony. We were kept at ease by the wedding team the whole day and our wedding day schedule all went to plan, we were so grateful as were our suppliers and we got to enjoy every minute of our day right up to 2am lol. The wedding room was just stunning as is the whole venue our guests were blown away with the beautiful views and the overall atmosphere of the venue. Our wedding meal was superb and all our guests loved it with many of them saying it was the best meal they have had at wedding. We couldn’t have asked for a better wedding day thank you 😁. Danielle & Craig

I don’t know where to start with this review. We had our wedding reception at the Farnham Estate on the 14th of December 2024 and all I can say is that it was absolutely magical. It exceeded our high expectations. We couldn’t have wished for a better day.

Throughout the planning of the wedding Danielle and Shauna couldn’t do enough for us. They were always there to support us and offer guidance. Nothing was ever too big of an ask. Danielle ensured everything was done exactly how we wanted right down to the finer details. Danielle replied to every email so promptly, even at 10pm on a Sunday night.

On the day of the wedding, everything ran so smoothly. This was a result of the staff being well organised, hardworking, prompt, and very polite. Everyone excelled at their role. The dinner service was excellent. The food was amazing and plentiful. Several of our guests have said, 'it was the best Turkey & Ham dinner they ever had'. We had a good few guests with dietary requirements and every one of them said they were never at another venue that catered for their requirements so well. One person who stands out during dinner service is Doville. She ensured everything ran accordingly and she went above and beyond for us and our guests. She was really friendly and kept checking in with everyone to ensure everything was ok. Another person we cannot thank enough is Rachel. There wasn’t anything she wasn’t involved in. She oversaw everything on the day of the wedding. She also checked in with all of our vendors to ensure they had everything they needed. Rachel also got the crowd going announcing us into the ballroom and by the end of the night everyone knew her name as she made it her business to interact with the guests and ensure everyone's needs were met.

All of our guests were blown away by how amazing Farnham Estate is, it's such a luxurious wow venue.

We cannot thank all the staff in the Farnham Estate for all their hard work and for making our wedding truly unforgettable. We would highly recommend the Farnham Estate for the wedding of your dreams.

We were sold on Farnham from day 1: the view on the walk from the car park, the venue and particularly Danielle.

No one really expects flawless but nothing comes to mind worth mentioning from that first day. We were treated like Kings and noticeably the standard was consistent for us and guests alike.

Everything was magical. We are delighted we chose Farnham

We truly had the best day of our lives and can’t stop looking back at the photos, reminiscing about every moment. If only we could go back and do it all over again!

Shauna, our wedding coordinator, was absolutely outstanding, especially since I planned the wedding from Australia, where I live. Any questions we had were answered quickly and efficiently, making the process seamless. The rest of the team involved in our day was equally amazing—nothing was ever too much trouble.

Everything ran so smoothly, and I honestly cannot fault a single thing. The food was absolutely incredible, and even now, our guests can’t stop talking about it. Many of them said it was one of the best weddings they’ve ever attended! We had guests travel from all over the world, including Australia and Germany, and they were all blown away by the entire experience at Farnham.

Our day was nothing short of magical, and we only wish we could relive it all over again. Thank you so much, Farnham, for making it truly unforgettable!

We had our wedding reception in Farnham Estate in October. This was the first venue we viewed back in July 23 and we both fell in love with the hotel and surrounding grounds straight away and no where else compared to it after that.
Such a classy decor, friendly staff and just a relaxing and welcoming ambience in general.
Our point of contact throughout the whole planning stage was Danielle. She is a true professional, so experienced, a great sound board and offered us lots of advice.
Danielle was so helpful and so informative, answered all of our concerns, queries, questions with no hesitation, so we put our trust in her and she did not disappoint. The day and night itself was just the best. Everything was as we had planned, food, drinks, service, staff, five stars. All of our guests were so impressed with the venue and it's facilities. I would highly recommend this hotel as a wedding venue.

We had our wedding and day 2 celebrations at Farmham Estate in October 2024 and it was absolutely fantastic. The whole team from start to finish were so incredibly easy to deal with and made us feel so special the whole way through.

To name a few fantastic people we dealt with - Danielle & Margaret our event coordinators were very responsive and gave us great advice at the planning stage.
Rachel, the F&B manager played an absolute blinder on the day and was so helpful and friendly. And also Fabian and all the other brilliant staff we had at the wedding and day 2 (special mention to Sean for looking after us so well at the golf clubhouse on the Sunday).

We honestly could not have asked for more. We got so many compliments on the food, service, and layout of the venue from our guests. What's more is everyone said we were the most chilled out B&G -this was definitely down to how well and how smoothly everything ran for the whole weekend.

Thank you to everyone at Farmham from the bottom of our hearts for making our wedding the most enjoyable experience ever !

I don't even know where to start with this review as I was blown away by the whole weekend. Myself and Darren are so happy we choose Farnham for our wedding, if I could give this hotel 6 stars I would.

We had the most magical day and weekend at Farnham Estate. There is so many people to thank but here are some we wanted to mention
Firstly Margaret and Shauna the wedding co-ordinators. Thank you for all the help and guidance over our 2 years planning. We dealt mostly with Shauna and she was outstanding. She really made us feel so special, no query or question was ever any trouble and her and the team really made sure everything on the day was perfect. Thank you so much
Rachel and Fabien are just amazing at their jobs. We felt like a million dollars on the day and day 2 with the efforts and attention to detail they went to, constantly looking after us and making sure every little detail was taken care of. Superstars
All the bar staff were excellent at their job and so so lovely to deal with, especially want to thank Patrick, Killian, Canion, Gabija, Ed and Ronan in the bar both for wedding and the day after.
Even the breakfast staff Doville, Laura and Mary were so pleasant and accommodating putting us sitting together and ensuring we had a lovely breakfast experience over the few days, excellent at their jobs.
Thank you to all the accommodation staff and reception staff. Rooms were so beautiful and our guests cant wait to come back again. The reception staff always with a smile on their face.
And finally GM Michael Weston who even with his demanding job took the time to come and personally congratulate us on our special day, and what a team of staff you have.
The food all weekend was out of this world so beautiful and guests are still talking about how tasty it was so thank you to the head chef all in the kitchen. We had our day 2 in the Clubhouse and it was also a dream. Food was amazing and we again were treated so well and everybody thoroughly enjoyed themselves.
I wish we could do it all again it was everything we dreamt of and more and that really is down to the amazing staff at Farnham Estate. Cannot wait to come back for an overnight visit and would highly recommend Farnham Estate for your wedding venue.

Myself and my wife got married in Farnham Estate in September 2024 and we were blown away with the service and professionalism that the team brought to the table. From day 1 upon viewing the venue, not only were we treated like a king and queen all our silly initial questions were answered with the upmost respect by the lovely Shauna. She was so flexible with our requests and offered amazing advice throughout that meeting that we had to book the wedding at the venue straight away! All through the run up to the wedding Shauna was super responsive to all our emails and mad questions but treated us like it was the only wedding they were having that year - we felt so special. The day before the wedding and the wedding day couldn't have gone better us and our guests were looked after so well. The lovely Rachel was to look after us and our guests on the wedding day and my did she do a fantastic job, she was so easy to work with, so responsive, proactive and got stuff done! Nothing was to big for Rachel! She checked in with us at regular intervals throughout the day and the announcement she made to our guests as we entered the ballroom would put a professional voice actor to shame! She was amazing - we want to thank her and Shauna for the support and care they provided throughout the process and was no small part as to why we choose Farnham as a venue for both our ceremony and our reception. We would like to thank Fabian and his team for looking after us so well through our meal service, speeches and throughout the night - everything was 5 star service and we still have guests saying this to us a months on! They treated everyone like they were the bride and groom and it definitely created a great atmosphere for us and our guests. The food was absolutely top-notch, from the quality and very generous quantity of food, no one went hungry nor did they have receive anything less than a 5 star rated meal and service, so thank you for the kitchen team for providing this lovely meal for us all. This venue is nothing short of 5 star in everything that they do - its a hidden gem with beautiful surroundings, extremely caring and professional staff throughout the resort - never to busy to offer and smile and a hello as they pass you by during your stay. If you're planning a wedding - there is no other place we would recommend - you wont regret it! Thank you again to Shauna, Rachel, Fabian, Jerry and all the team at Farnham Estate, we cant wait to stay with you again very soon - Ryan and Aisling - Sligo

We booked Farnham Estate for our wedding a little over 2 years in advance after reviewing some of the other hotels local to us. From start to finish the wedding team; Danielle, Shauna and Margaret were all brilliant. They offered help and advice any time we needed it (including supplier recommendations) and nothing was ever a problem for them.
Our wedding day really was the best day of our lives. Farnham Estate was the perfect venue for us. There are plenty of beautiful photo opportunities, the food was fantastic and the staff on the day as well as the following day were all so friendly and helpful. We have had so many comments both on the day and since from guests saying it was the best wedding they have been to. We are so thankful to the Farnham Estate for everything.

We recently had our wedding day at the Farnham Estate Cavan. It was beyond our wildest dreams. Danielle was our wedding coordinator from the day we booked. She is exceptional at her job, her attention to detail is second to none. Our wedding day surpassed every expectation. The food, the service, the decor every little item that we had mentioned was there in its exact place. Our guests are still raving about the food and venue. We particularly loved being able to have our photos taken on the grounds of the Farnham as it is such a stunning setting. Danielle had the amazing idea of our first dance being outside in the pergola. It was like something from the movies it will forever be an extremely special part of our day. If you are considering having your Wedding in the Farnham Estate, or even going for a night away. Do it, it’s the most amazing experience from start to finish.

Just coming back down to earth now .. what can I say, thank you soooo much, thank you will never cut it but we are so grateful for everything you done in helping to plan our wedding. We had the best day of our lives, everyone at the Farnham was absolutely amazing and we couldn’t have asked for better service. You are incredible at what you do and it creates the happiest, most special memories. Thank you soo much 💖 p.s. it’s not the end of us lol xx

Also please pass on our thanks to Rachel again, we saw her before we left but she was incredible too. Everything ran so smoothly couldn’t ask for more! Xx’

Hi Shauna,

Thank you so much, I don’t think there really ever was another venue in the running haha and thank you for the amazing gifts left, not only in our room, but in our parents rooms! We really appreciate that and weren’t excepting them, and our parents were delighted!

We will definitely be leaving a review, all of our family and friends haven’t stopped raving about the hotel and the staff and we’ve been hearing stories of how the service was just elevated that touch above, so we are over the moon.

Thank you again for all of the help and planning that made our day so so amazing and please pass on our thanks to Rachel, she was out of this world and couldn’t do enough for us.

We are so glad we had our wedding at Farnham Estate. Everything was exactly as we wanted and all staff were so helpful through all stages of our wedding planning and wedding day! A special shout out to Shauna, who was a pleasure to work with. The food was beautiful and all our guests had a great time. We loved our bridal suite and many of our guests loved the options for staying, with some staying in rooms and some staying in the resort houses. A fantastic wedding venue that we couldn't recommend more. Thank you Farnham!

"Hi Margaret,

We can’t even begin to thank you for making our wedding the most magical experience! Everything was perfect!! Nothing was an issue for the hotel and Yous ensured we received a 5* service from the moment we arrived - so much me and Gregory tried to add an extra night stay but hotel was fully booked. We loved our experience so much we have booked to come stay again in October over the Halloween break! "

Margaret, Danielle & all the team,

We just wanted to send you both on our greatest of thanks for all you support to myself Katie and of course Dia.
From the first moment we came to Farnham to discuss booking our wedding you have gone above and beyond anything we could have ever expected.
We are so glad we had our wedding at Farnham it was just magical and we know it wouldn't have been possible without the support and hard work of you both!
All of our guests were so complementary of everything the hotel provided for them and all the staff, so it is a credit to you all.
Even the meal arranged the night before our wedding was perfect.
Can you also please send on our big thanks to Rachel and Dovelle for taking care of us also on the day they were fantastic and they accommodated everything so well for us.

We just cannot thank you all enough and we will definitely be back for more stays in Farnham in fact we cannot wait to come back to see you all soon.

Thanks again,
Natalie, Katie & Dia ❤️

Incredible service from the very first moment we met Danielle.

Danielle was so easy to deal with, accomodating and very responsive. She and the team also provided some great advice along the way.

Overall the team at Farnham went above and beyond to make our whole wedding weekend an amazing experience.

Hi Danielle,

Thank you again so much for the most amazing weekend! Every single member of staff went above and beyond to make sure myself & Eric had the best weekend possible. Everything was just perfect. The food was unbelievable. Special thanks to yourself, Shauna, Rachel & Doville. You were all incredible and made the day so special and made sure it all went smoothly.

We got married in Farnham Estate in July. The staff exceeded all of out expectations. Their wedding co-ordinator, Danielle was so helpful at all stages of the planning and went above and beyond for us and our guests.

Farnham estate was always our top choice for wedding venue, and they did not disappoint. From first meeting to day of wedding we where looked after to high standards and everything went as it should of on the day.
We had an amazing day and loved every minute of it, received nothing but positive comments from our guest for the weeks after.

Great service from the wedding tram. Very helpful with all aspects of the wedding. In particular Shauna. Thank you for making our day so special and memorable.

Farnham estate is the most fabulous wedding venue with the best team behind it all. From the moment we first inquired we knew that it was our wedding venue. All of the wedding team are so professional and helpful. They went out of their way to make sure we were happy with every detail. They were also so accommodating to our requests and we had the best day in September . The venue itself looked beautiful. The food and wine was Devine. Everyone is still complimenting the day. I highly recommend Farnham Estate and wish we could do the day all over again! Thanks you to everyone who helped make our day so special. Niamh and Colin

Amazing day, great venue and location. The wedding reception area is separate from the main hotel- so there is ultimate privacy of wedding guests only. There is a bar in the reception area. Lovely and spacious we had enough room for a 4 piece Irish band whilst comfortable accommodating guests aswell. We loved the function room, it is not overwhelming- a lovely size, there is a bar present in the function room which was a massive plus for us. Overall great location, for guests to make a weekend of your day as the hotel has a lot to offer guests. Food was also amazing- everyone complimented this. Would definitely recommend this venue.

Farnham is the most stunning venue for a wedding. The wedding pavilion is separate to the main hotel which we loved as it had some privacy. The hotel is absolutely gorgeous with a mix of modern and vintage decor. I liked that they kept the estate house with its vintage feel but is surrounded by modern. The grounds for photos are outstanding our wedding photos are beautiful! The food was absolutely fantastic everyone was raving about it. The hotel rooms were huge, clean and relaxing, beds are extremely comfortable. The staff here are absolutely amazing, so friendly and helpful and went above and beyond for us we couldn't have been happier with our wedding day here and would recommend it to absolutely anyone.

From the minute we walked into the Farnham Estate we were blown away with the service, venue and staff. We were delighted with the food, service and our guests had a great time. The venue is stunning and even now to visit after getting married at Farnham Estate is a special experience. Highly recommend!

I can't say enough about farnham estate, absolutly incredible venue, amazing and very professional staff, our wedding co ordininaters ciara and Danielle pulled out all the stops when it came to re arranging our wedding due to covid! The quality of the food was outstanding, there was no stone left unturned, we love Farnham, we visit every year but now we have a special reason to return every year! Everyone of our guests remarked on how beautiful the grounds were and how stunning the hotel and ballroom is, we would highly recommend Farnham Estate for your wedding

We were the first wedding after the covid restrictions were lifted.. Before they were brought in again ???? the help the Farnham gave us was next to none in the most scary of times. They were excellent and if I could I would do it all over again. Thank you to Danielle Ciara and all the team

We had our wedding on the 17th of August 2019 in Farnham Estate and we definitely had the best day of our lives. We organised our big day from oversea and the staff at Farnham were amazing from day one. Danielle was our wedding coordinator, she was extremely helpful and very responsive to our emails and any questions we had. Colm was looking after us on the big day. He made sure everything went to plan and ensured the day we very smoothly. The food was exceptional throughout the day and our guest were very happy. The ballroom and reception area were beautifully decorated. We couldn't recommend Farnham Estate highly enough. It was amazing and we wouldn't have changed a thing.

What can we say from the first email to the wedding day Farnham estate was amazing! Planing our wedding from the UK everyone made us feel like we were there and they replied to us quickly. The venue is absolutely perfect and I wouldn't change a thing! Food on the day was 100%, sat down on time, enough space between each course so we and our guests had time to enjoy each course. I could go on and on I just can not thank Tracey Stephen and the team enough x

Overall we really enjoyed our wedding day and would recommend Farnham.

We'd like to thank you and and everyone at Farnham for a wonderful day. All staff were more than helpful, a few names in particular spring to mind if you could pass on our thanks. Jonathan at the reception suite, Audrey who served our table and Ciaran at reception (in the hotel) helped us out with a number of things during our stay over the two days.
We're actually looking at booking a weekend in Farnham in the next few weeks we were so happy with our wedding there!

We recently got married (may 10, '14) in the Farnham. I have many good stories to show how good there service is, but then I'd be here all day writing this review ;)

Anyone thinking of a wedding, just to summarise our 3 day stay:

Day 1. Golf. No pressure, good fun. Bit wet, but that's the man upstairs fault. Forgiving fairways and fast greens. Sun was out and the buggies got us around quick. Gavin and the lads there were really super.

Day 2: the wedding. The place halted for to receive us. Everything went perfectly. Cooking 170 fillet steaks isn't easy, but these lads made it look easy. Jonathan the MC, was a STAR. He made the evening run like a locamotive. Such a great night. Matthew, the bar Manager had to put up with us all till 5am! What a legend.

Day 3. BBQ in the lemon room. 50 hungry heads were fed back to life by Tomek and his team. Just super. Yummy post partying ribs, burgers, salads, etc. Just yum. Tomek, you were right about that Malbec you recommended.

Thanks in particular to Patsy, the lady at the helm. She sold us a wonderful day, we paid. THEY delivered.

Well done.

Looking forward to our anniversary already...lol

We would like to thank all the staff at Farnham for making our wedding a truly special occasion. Both Patsy and Clodagh were very helpful every time we called on them throughout the planning process. Any questions we posed were answered promptly. We would also like to mention Jonathan who was extremely professional and helpful for the entire wedding day. A special thank you to Sonia at the front desk who was extremely helpful in organising a steamer for the wedding dress which was creased upon arrival. It helped to calm the nerves. All the staff at the hotel were very kind to us and really helped to make us feel special, from the reception desk to the wedding staff and the lunch staff the next day. The complimentary bottle of prosecco on the Saturday with our dinner was a lovely touch. In a word the whole experience was perfect. Thank you to all at Farnham.

We both couldn't recommend the hotel for not only a wedding but for any event and break away. Everyone commented on the grounds, reception area and rooms. A lot of guests got free late checkout, some as late as 3pm which was excellent. They were also delighted that they could still use the spa even after check out and some took advantage of this.
For us it was brilliant to know that guests had a great day and enjoyed the facilities as well. The bridal suite was beautiful, i was so disappointed we didn't stay on another night but we had already made plans for the day after with friends. I couldn't fault Jonathan and the waiting staff before and during the reception. He couldn't be more helpful even before the wedding.
On the day he had bits and pieces set up on the tables and in the reception as requested and last minute set up the wedding cupcakes for us. Food and service was excellent and both Jonathan and the waiting staff checked in regularly with us to ensure everything was good for us.
Even the next morning the reception staff and bar service staff were so polite and friendly. I would highly recommend Farnham for a wedding, any event or stay. Thanks to everyone again involved in our day

Just a wee note to say thank you and the staff especially David who looked after us so well on our big day. We truly enjoyed our wedding from start to finish. We first visited Farnham four years ago and we fell in love with the place and have come back several times since. We got engage a year later and looked at a few venues but we always found ourselves coming back to the ides of have our wedding there.
After meeting with Patsy we were sold. We have three young kids so the fact that our venue was separate from the main hotel gave us peace of mind that they had room to play and be safe without ruining the other guests stay. Our Big Day arrived and the staff couldn't do enough to make us feel special. The day went as relaxed and smoothly as we dreamed.
The food was beautiful and everything went well. Highly recommend the Farnham Estate as a wedding venue and all our guests would say the same. We have a fabulous day and will be back soon.

Fantastic day, best venue we could have picked, staff were extremely accommodating and a big thank you to Patsy and Anthony. Can't wait to spend all of our anniversaries now at Farnham. Thank you for everything

Hi Patsy,

I really just wanted to thank you so much for all your help in making my Wedding Day so special. I have to say the quality of service you provided in the planning of the wedding was exceptional. I am so grateful to you for all the help and assistance you gave us.

We are both sincerely grateful to each and every member of staff in the hotel. We both had such an amazing day, it exceeded well beyond our expectations and we enjoyed every minute of it!

Our guests commented on the exceptional staff so I hope you can pass on the positive feedback! The drinks reception was a great success and a special thanks to David who coordinated the day to perfection. The food was fantastic and the accommodation was luxurious.

I have no hesitation in recommending the venue to all my friends/ family as I have to say the venue was outstanding and I am so grateful to everyone at the Farnham Estate for all their hard work in making my Wedding Day the perfect day

Just a quick mail to say how delighted we are with how everything went on our wedding day. All our guests absolutely loved the venue and many of them who previously hadn't known about the hotel, have already booked weekend breaks up there.
Particular thanks to you and all the staff who helped make the day run as smoothly as it did
