We had our wedding at our Station House last month and I can honestly say it was everything we could’ve asked for! The outdoor ceremony was perfect, Jack & Jill and all the staff at the station house were super helpful on and before the day. Anything we wanted or asked for, we got without question. They really take care of you and put you at ease so you can focus on your own day. Would highly recommend the Station House as a venue to anyone!

We can’t say enough about The Station House Hotel. Everyone was so incredibly kind and professional and went above and beyond to make our day so special. We planned our wedding from abroad and it really came together perfectly. The venue itself is absolutely gorgeous, so cozy and intimate. All our guests had a wonderful weekend and are still talking about it! We would highly recommend this hotel to everyone and we can’t wait to come back again in the future. Thank you so much to all the team & staff at The Station House.

We had our wedding in The Station House last month and it was the most incredible day! We cannot thank Ross who was our wedding coordinator enough and all the other amazing staff at this hotel! The Station house is like a 5 star, wedding exclusive experience without the insane prices! We cannot recommend them enough. All the staff from reception, food, bar etc went above and beyond for us and made sure all our guests had the best time! The function room is incredible, even the bedrooms that all our guests stayed in were all designed so beautifully. You will not find a venue that even compares to it! They even had a complimentary bus for other guests to get home or to varies other hotels and B&Bs around. The Station House blew all our expectations, it was truly magical!

We cannot recommend the Station House highly enough. In the run up to the wedding the team were professional, efficient and patient. Little touches such as the full menu tasting make a huge difference. On the day of the wedding itself and on the following day we and our guests were treated so well. We were made to feel like the most important people in the world. The venue was gorgeous and we received more comments about the outstanding quality of the food than I could count. I would love to do it all again :-)

We're coming up on a week since our wedding day and it was the most magical day we could have ever imagined. We knew right from the start of our planning that we were in great hands. No request or query was too big or too small. A few of us stayed the night before too and we were made so very welcome. The Station House Hotel is absolutely beautiful. We got married on site, in the woods at the turntable and it was magical! We had the most relaxed & joyful day (something I'm sure not all wedding couples can boast). The food was just outstanding, from our breakfast, afternoon tea, canapes, dinner and evening snacks - everything was perfect! All of our guests commented on how wonderful the hotel and staff were. A particular mention for Ross & Pearse. They are such a credit to the hotel, such calming influences and I know for a fact that our day ran as smoothly as it did, down to your efforts before and on the day itself. To all the other staff, from reception, kitchen, restaurant, bar & housekeeping, and especially the young chap (who I think was new) who had to make a calculated leap over my dress train every time I got in his way in the bar - Thank you all so very much. Every one of you contributed to making the 1st of December 2022, the best day of our lives. I can't wait to go back from our anniversary

Response from The Station House Hotel

Thanks very much for the lovely review Trish - we're so glad that you and Robert enjoyed your wedding here with us at Station House Hotel and we were able to be part of your special day.

We had our wedding day on November 4th 2022 at the Station House. It was an absolutely amazing day and we loved it so much! It was exactly as we hoped it would be. The ceremony outside was beautiful, the Carriage Suite was set up perfectly and the food was excellent. All our guests commented on how lovely the venue was, how great the food was and how attentive and nice all the staff were. We would especially like to thank Ross, Jill and Pearse, all going above and beyond on the day itself - moving cars, fetching handbags and escorting grannies. Every single person commented on how nice Pearse was and how he had everything in hand at all times. Do not hesitate to have your wedding at the Station House, this venue really offers something different, and the staff are a pleasure to work with. As the venue is small, accommodation is really the only issue. But we decided early on to book an Airbnb nearby for the night before so we could get ready there and arrive ready to the venue so for us, all was OK. We wish we could do it all again and cannot wait to return to celebrate our anniversary!

We got married on the 29th of October 2022 and we had the best day in The Station House. We are usually the ones that perform music for peoples weddings so it was fantastic to be on the other side of it! We have played in most venues in the country but The Station House always stuck out to us. We love the history of the venue and also how well it’s been kept. The fact that we could have the entire venue to ourselves sold it to us too. The staff were absolutely amazing and if we had any issues along the way they were so quick to sort it out for us. Ross, Karen and Pierce in particular were the best. The venue is absolutely stunning and the bedrooms were so comfortable. The shuttle bus dropped our guests back to their accommodation as promised too. The food is outstanding, and the service on our wedding day was brilliant. All of our guests commented on how kind the staff were. The owners even made a point to wish us a congratulations on the day which was a lovely touch. The app Moposa helped us plan the wedding so much too! I’d highly recommend that. You can plan your guest list and seating chart on it so it really helps you to visualise how the room will look on the day. I can’t fault anything at all. Wish we could do it all again! Thanks a million to all of you for absolutely everything, it was truly a magical day. We’ll definitely visit again especially for the food! Love, Joe&Nic Xxx

Slightly delayed in posting our review as the months post wedding have been so busy and we have been in such a bubble since! Where do I begin with The Station House Hotel. From start to finish the staff at The Station House Hotel were absolutely phenomenal! From the moment we stepped in to the hotel for our first viewing we fell in love. The cosiness of the bar area, the magnificent grounds, the wow factor carriage suite and the most delicious food, we knew instantly that we wanted to get married at The Station House Hotel. Each and every one of the staff went above and beyond from the planning stages right through to the day of the wedding. I have never experienced a more welcoming, kind and caring group of people. Our wedding was absolutely magical and so special because of everyone at The Station House Hotel. No ask was too big and we were made feel at ease the whole time, I cannot thank Ross enough for all he done for us and all the wedding planning team, they are true professionals! Our guests continue to comment on how amazing the grounds and decor set up was and how delicious the food was along with how nice and kind the staff were. The value for money and all that is included in your wedding package is amazing! Honestly, there is not one thing I can fault with The Station House Hotel!

Cannot say enough nice things about our entire experience - we knew instantly that we wanted to have our wedding at this gorgeous venue - very accommodating when it came to date changes due to covid and lockdowns. Ross and the wedding team are an absolute treat to deal with, they really are experts at what they do - absolutely everything was thought of and catered for by the wedding team. The venue it's self is absolutely stunning and very stylish, all of our wedding guests commented on the picturesque setting, from the turnstile area in the forest where we had our ceremony to the bar and terrace where we had our canapés to the carriage suite where we had our meal and later on, party. The food is absolutely second to none, there is so much provided throughout the wedding day - the 10 course tasting menu evening some months before the wedding was also a nice touch as we were treated to absolutely everything on the wedding menu - each and every one of our guests have commented on how amazing and delicious the food was and the amount of food provided, the tayto sambos toward the end of the night was a real surprise for our guests and went down a treat! The organisation and flow of our wedding day was managed very well, everything moved along nicely, the manager communicated every aspect of the day to us and ensured we were well looked after - the entire staff worked very hard to ensure service was seamless, each and every one of them were extremely accomodating and approachable. We opted to have a bbq for day two, we had plenty of time to chill out with friends and family before the bbq started and again were well looked after throughout the day, the food for the bbq was absolutely delicious and we were also provided with more food in the evening time. The wedding team organised music for the second day - Ray Cox, the musician was brilliant, he played for more than 3 hours without taking a break and kept everyone entertained! We cannot thank the whole team at the Station House enough for welcoming us, our families and our guests and giving us "the celebrity" treatment. Our wedding day could not have been any more perfect.

If you are looking for something different, something magical and something very special you should consider the Station House for your wedding. We had our beautiful wedding on 2nd Sept 22 and after 3 cancellations it was worth the wait. The wedding team are brilliant and no request was ever declined. Communication throughout the organisation process was always there whether it be via email, zoom call or in person. The tasting night that was organised for the couples was a great night and was so helpful for choosing our menu and wine. As for the wedding day itself..it was just perfect and we were very lucky to have a dry day for our outside ceremony. The wedding team had all the timings down to a tee and got everyone in place where they needed when they needed. The meal was exquisite and piping hot, we went with Salmon and upgrade to beef dish. All my guests cleared their plates and some were even too full to finish dessert which is always a good sign. We went back outside to where are ceremony took place for our first dance, it was dark and with the fairy lights, lanterns and we had sparklers for our guests it was magical and looks great in the photos. All the staff were fantastic and so so friendly and attentive. The reception room is beautifully decorated and laid out. The kitchen staff even decorated my wedding cake for me as it was a naked cake with flowers separate and I was going to do it myself but it was kindly offered by Josef and which turned out beautifully. This is how helpful they were all day and all night. My guests are still talking about how great the day was. I would highly highly recommend this venue for anyone getting married/renewing vows. So if you have the opportunity to go to one of their wedding showcases you should as you will not be disappointed.

The Station House exceeded all of our expectations. From the moment we viewed the venue, to planning from abroad via zoom, right up to the day itself the Station House went above and beyond to accommodate us. The venue itself is extremely homely - nothing stuffy about it, the staff are extremely professional and approachable, the grounds are like a fairytale and lend themselves to amazing photographs, and weeks later family and friends are still raving about the amazing food. We couldn't have picked a better Wedding venue - would recommend the Station House to everyone without a minute's hesitation.

We felt very lucky to be able to secure a cancellation date in the Station House Hotel for our wedding. It really was the most beautiful and special venue, made even more special by the incredibly helpful and friendly staff. We did not use the turntable for our ceremony as we married in our local church at home so on arrival we were warmly greeted by Pearse and our personalised crystal champagne flutes- a lovely touch we weren't expecting. Its so lovely to have these now as a keepsake. The drinks reception was like something from a dream which was made even better by the appearance of sunshine on arrival! Our time together in the Library before being called into Carriage suite was so lovely but the call to dinner and getting everyone in took longer than expected so things became a little delayed from that point which unfortunately had a knock on effect to our band playing time later! A very minor detail which nobody else noticed!! I can understand how difficult it must be trying to organise this many people! If the speeches could have happened during dessert it might have given us back a little bit of that time lost. The dinner was top class- we've had so many guests compliment the food to us since. Our first dance in the turntable was so special and something we'll never forget. We would highly recommend the Station House Hotel to anyone getting married . On the day, Pearse and Karen were so kind and supportive- nothing was too much of an ask. In the planning and lead up Shiyra and Ross were so good at replying to emails and getting all the details right for us. We've had so many guests compliment the venue and how special it all felt saying it was the best wedding they've been to! We might be biased but we fully agree!

We had our wedding ceremony and reception in the station house hotel at the end of July, I could not be happier with selecting this venue for our wedding. The recent renovations have elevated this hotel, the rooms are beautifully decorated and the venue itself is beautiful, we got married in the turntable which is surrounded my a mini forest and it’s unbeatable. It was magic. We got a good day and could make use of the lovely platform terrace for canapés and drinks (they now have a beautiful terrace just renovated also out the back, another space to use) Our wedding co-ordinator Shiyra was brilliant, listened to everything we wanted and really helped us achieve it. One big focus for us was the food and wine and the chef Gordon met with us personally to put together a menu we were happy with, on the day Gordon himself ran the kitchen and the food was superb, far superior to what you expect at a wedding, our guests raved about it. I had A LOT of decor for the wedding ceremony and the dinning suite, activities for the kids, sweets table etc. there was absolutely no issue with this and Karen was fantastic that morning putting it all out. Once we were married we were greeted by the events manager Pearse who is outstanding at what he does, he ran the whole show then ensuring all our guests and ourselves were very well looked after. I got ready in the library that morning and for us the space was lovely, I just had my little girl, 2 bridesmaids and my mam. We were served breakfast and looked after for all of it as makeup and hair helped us get ready. I do agree from the previous review that a long mirror would be very handy but you do move upto the bridal suite from 12.30 or so where you have that. I didn’t mind walking from the library to the bathroom (a few seconds walk), there was nobody in that hotel area except us. There is a shuttle bus available for wedding guests once all 19 rooms are filled, we did fill them all but unfortunately the shuttle bus would not take people unless they were staying in a hotel or b&b, we are local so we gave the rooms to those travelling long distances and we asked close friends to stay with family if possible which worked out as all local hotels were booked out for months in advance (BH wkend)we actually told them to cancel taxis on the night and the shuttle bus wouldn’t bring them then which was frustrating and my husbands dad had to drive a few people home, just a note -something to make sure is available if you have told people. This however is only 1 point in an entire day of unbelievable service. We were between here and Boyne valley and I am so so glad I went with my gut and picked here, it absolutely delivered and we had an amazing day. Thank you to the team at the station house.

We had a fantastic day getting married at The Station House. Everyone is raving about the venue, how magical it was and saying that it was the best wedding they have ever been to. The food was ordinary food done very well so not too adventurous to put off guests and the flavours were beautiful. For other brides I would suggest taking the Grand suite instead of the Junction Cabin as we found it too small for us getting ready in and the steep stairs arent ideal for high shoes and long wedding train. A very small thing that could have been better in the room was the tea/coffee facility, I didnt expect paper cups in the bridal suite. I can understand the comment made by another reviewer about wedding planners changing all the time, we had emails from several different people and on the day the coordinator was someone we had never met before. Our cake topper went missing, I presume it was thrown out which is sad because it was an important keepsake for us that wasnt returned to us. Our props were left out overnight and got soaked in the rain, I was under the impression staff would gather these things up before the night was over. The library was provided to us to start getting ready until our room was turned over after the previous guests left, I must say the library isnt suitable to get ready in. I would suggest if the Station House often needs this room for bridal prep, to put some big mirrors, good lighting, high hooks for outfits to hang, and some surfaces for makeup/hair equipment, making it more of a dressing room. Note to brides if you get ready in here you have to walk through the bar to the bathroom and will be seen by your arriving guests. Not a negative feedback but a practical heads up. Overall we are delighted with our venue choice and its really down to the magical turntable, tasty food, relaxed vibes and friendly staff.

I cant find enough words to explain how happy we were that we chose this place for our wedding. We kind of knew it was meant to be when they told us the 2 days they had available and one of them (the actual day of our wedding) was a day that was very special to us. Throughout the whole process, they communicated, sent reminders which was VERY helpful and was always there to answer any questions we had. Their menu tasting... bring elastic pants and book a room because it was AMAZING! On the day, the staff was unbelievable. Anything we needed, they were there. I cant name any standouts because they were all equally excellent. If you book here, you will not regret it. We will come to this place for many years to come to relive some of the amazing memories from our special day.

It is a pity for a lovely place to have a not great experience for my wedding, first of all, they changed my wedding planner 3 times and none of them were there the day of my wedding. I had technical issues during my ceremony and there was no staff to support me. I have to say the hotel staff is lovely, the food incredible, and the location is fantastic. I am very disappointed with the wedding team since I felt that they didn't give importance to it because my wedding was a small wedding, which is not professional at all.

We had our wedding in the Station House in June 2022. We booked the venue following a zoom meeting during Covid before the hotel renovations were completed - the banquet room and entire hotel is finished to the highest standard and such a unique style. So many of our friends have commented on how beautiful the room was. It was our dream to get married outside which is always a risk in Ireland - the turntable is a beautiful setting and we are thrilled we got to say “I do” there. The staff were so helpful throughout our planning process. I visited the hotel with my bridesmaids prior to our wedding and we were made to feel so welcome. Our wedding day was absolutely fantastic. Due to circumstances outside of everyone’s control our ceremony time had to be pushed back by an hour which could have been very stressful but the staff handled the situation with complete professionalism and kept us at ease throughout. The food was sublime and food service was timely. I couldn’t praise this venue highly enough - thanks for everything!

We had our wedding day in the Station House in April 2022 and we cannot recommend this venue enough. We had the best day of our lives in the Station House, and are only disappointed that we cannot do it all again. We had a day we will never forget, and it exceeded all expectations. We fell in love with this venue a number of years ago, but since then it has been renovated into a magical, one of a kind venue. From the initial booking with Michelle, the communication was always open and clear. We had to unfortunately postpone our wedding during the pandemic and move it to another date, but the Station House were so understanding and done everything to help. We were lucky the sun was shining on our day, which meant we could get married outside in The Turntable, a simply magical place to get married. The Platform Terrance was the perfect setting for our drinks reception, and the grounds provide a speculator backdrop for photos and videos. The recently renovated Carriage Suite is breathtaking, so warm and so welcoming. We stayed in the signal suite on the night, such a unique place to spend the first night as a married couple, so cute and cosy. But all the rooms are so unique and special. On the day, front manager Suzanne was so helpful in arranging our guest accommodation and organising afternoon tea, a real credit to the hotel. Our wedding coordinators Ross and Emma were a dream team on the day and helped with so many aspects that we didn’t have to worry about anything. A special thanks to Ross, who somehow managed to save the day by sourcing a shirt for our pageboy when we realised it had been left at home! Wedding manager Shyria was so helpful in the lead up to the day, and even presented us with a lovely gift the next morning. The food on the day was simply delicious (especially the beef, lamb and apple tart), so compliments to the chefs and their teams. We met owners Thelma and Chris who wished us well in our marriage, which added to the real family run, exclusive vibe this venue has. We will be forever grateful to The Station House and their amazing team for giving us a day we will never forget. We look forward to returning for many years to come… Kelly & Martin

From the moment we went to view the Station House hotel we fell in love with it, such a unique and beautiful venue. The wedding team made everything so easy for us and answered every question we had no matter how small. On the wedding day itself they made everything so seamless, all we had to do was enjoy the day. Our guests were blown away with the whole setup and raved about how good the food was. We really can't thank the wedding team and staff enough for making the day so special. I wouldn't change a single detail of that day.

We absolutely loved our experience at The Station House. The staff are top notch and each and every member of staff works to ensure that the day runs smoothly. We had our ceremony outdoors here and also our first dance. The setting is magical. The fairy lights in the trees are fabulous. The set up in the turntable for the ceremony was incredible too. The food in the Station House is fantastic. We had a 4 course meal that was exquisite. We cannot recommend it highly enough. I assure you it will not disappoint.

We recently got married in The Station House and had the best weekend ever! We cannot thank the staff enough for making the whole weekend run so smoothly. We knew from the day we viewed the venue that it was where we wanted to get married but our expectations were blown away. Sarah and Shiyra our wedding coordinators were amazing! They make you feel very special as the wedding couple and couldn’t do enough for us. We felt relaxed from day one of planning with them. The service on our wedding day was exceptional. All the staff were polite, helpful, professional and down to earth which we loved. The food was 10/10, everything from the canapés to the late night snacks went down a treat. And trying all the food at the menu tasting night was a great start to the wedding excitement. I would highly recommend The Station House to anyone getting married it’s a magical place and we would love to do it all over again. The Signal Box suite was the icing on the cake too :)

The venue was magical, guests were blown away by it! We did our first dance outside which was so special, would definitely recommend this if the weather is dry. Food was fantastic on the night and for breakfast the next morning. The decor is beautiful and added touches like Voya products and pillow sprays etc in the room really add the final touches!

In the lead up to the initial date we had set, The Wedding Team at The Station House were really helpful and supportive with all of our plans and requirements. We had a lovely evening at the food tasting where we met Chef Mark and he went through the menu with us. We had dietary requirements for a close family member who is coeliac and were reassured by Mark that all precautions would be taken and there would be no cross-contamination. On both the tasting evening and our wedding reception, the food was of a very high standard and everybody enjoyed their meal. We had our wedding booked for January 1st 2022 but due to Covid we had to postpone. The Wedding Team were extremely understanding and supportive and gave us a list of available dates that we could choose from. We had our reception on April 1st and the team at The Station House ensured that the day ran smoothly. From when we arrived they took care of everything and made us feel at ease. We had a short blessing in the Turntable which was decorated beautifully followed by the drinks reception in the piano bar. The canapes were loved by everyone and we had Gluten free scones for our coeliac guests. The Carriage Suite was perfectly laid out and it is truly a beautiful room for a wedding reception. The service for the meal was efficient and the waiting staff were friendly and attentive. Following the meal the staff were quick to get the room ready for the band and served tea and cake mid way through the band's performance. At the end of the night The Station House Shuttle Bus brought guests to their nearby accommodation within a 10k radius. We had a really enjoyable day and cannot speak highly enough of The Station House and their staff. We would highly recommend it as a Wedding venue.

We got married at the Station House recently and it was the most perfect day imaginable. It is such a beautiful location, the grounds are stunning. The fairylights along the aisle to the ceremony space were one of the reasons we booked. The recently refurbished rooms can't be faulted and each is beautifully and individually decorated. What can be said about the reception space in the Carraige Suite except WOW. Some guests told us they were left literally openmouthed at the ceiling. The staff were incredible; so friendly, so helpful. Shiyra, Ross and Karen in particular were a delight. They went above and beyond to make our day extra special and our guests were so impressed with all the little touches, like blankets and umbrellas being provided for the outdoor ceremony. The food was gorgeous. I would be more than happy to have their tropical sorbet and suckling pork belly at every meal for the rest of my life. I'm told the vegetarian options were also delicious and very fresh. Breakfast the next morning was particularly good, especially the poached eggs. We stayed in the Grand Suite the night before.. what a beautiful room! The bed is the most comfortable I've ever slept in, and the bath was stunning. I only wish I'd had time to use it. The Signal Suite is so sweet. A perfect slice of heavenly privacy for newlyweds. We are so happy we decided to get married here and have every intention of returning again and again.

The SHH was the perfect choice of venue for us. We wanted a venue to cater for our wedding of 100 comfortably and we chose well. The SHH has a very homely feel and the staff truly treat you like part of the family for the entire planning process from right up to the big day. They were even there when I was walking down the aisle to the beautiful turntable where we said our vows. Stunning location all around, the function room is beautifully decorated so much so we required very little in the way of extra decorations. The food was phenomenal, we had a rack of lamb, chicken and monkfish options for dinner and we had nothing but praise for the amount of food and the quality of each course served. Emma the Op Manager was excellent and kept the whole day running to schedule and coordinated our suppliers. The guests we housed on site enjoyed the beautiful rooms, we've even heard of a few planning to revisit this hidden gem!! The team led by General Manager extraordinaire Valerie are nothing short of amazing. We did have some bumps along the way like all planning processes I'm sure but couldn't rate highly enough how everything was dealt with. Could not recommend a wedding there enough, when we checked out there was a couple viewing the venue and we hope the smiles on our faces sold it to them. Thank you SHH!

If you’re looking for the perfect place to get married, the Station House is it! The venue is absolutely stunning, from the bar, the little snugs, the grounds, and even the fabulous bedrooms. The team are incredible and they cannot do enough for you. They are so on the ball and deal with things before you even need to think about it. The wedding planning and facilitating a fully vegan wedding was no trouble at all, including the Chef creating a full day of vegan food, from afternoon tea to canapes, a 5-course meal, and amazing evening food. They made sure we were very satisfied with everything on the day and during the run-up to the day. Thanks to the team the day went even better than we could have imagined. All of our guests said that it was the most fun they have ever had at a wedding and that the Station House was absolutely beautiful. We already can’t wait to come back and we really hope we get an invitation to another wedding at the Station House in the near future!

When we met with the team and visited the station house we knew we didn’t need to look at any other venues as we were blown away. The venue itself is surrounded by beautiful grounds, has a lovely cosy welcoming vibe and has been recently renovated. Our guests were equally blown away and have all been raving about it.

We just wanted to say the biggest thank you to the Station House Wedding Team all for giving us the happiest day of our lives. They have made this process from start to finish so easy and relaxed and an absolute pleasure! We looked forward to catching up with them and we could not have asked for more. The week leading up to the wedding was incredibly tough and draining on us, losing a few key members of the wedding party and dealing with drop outs every hour. The team made everything so stress free when we had to make last minute changes and were so empathetic and warm guiding us on a daily basis which is something we will always be thankful for. The day finally arrived and it was pure magic, we have no other words to describe it. I’ve never felt so much love and positive energy in one place and for that we will be forever grateful. Every single guest complimented the food, the venue, the staff, the rooms and the atmosphere continuously and I can confirm you’ll see many of them returning for a visit!

We were married in the station house on the 27th November 2021. Our original wedding date was in November 2020 but was postponed due to Covid 19. The wedding team in the station house could not have been more helpful and understanding during this transition and even helped to alleviate the stress as up until the last minute of our new wedding date in 2021 we weren’t sure if things would go ahead again due to covid 19 restrictions. Thankfully we had our wedding with 100 guests and a finish time of 12pm. The staff were very professional throughout the difficult regulatory changes and adapted quickly. They were easy to contact by email or phone and we even found the general staff very helpful and knowledgeable regarding weddings when we visited for a meal on occasions as the food is divine. My husband became vegan in the run up to the wedding and they provided a vegan menu inclusive of wines without any delays. On the day we could not have thanked the staff enough everything went to plan and even little touches that I had not even thought about such as similar music to our chosen wedding song was played for the background music of the meal. All of the guests reported having an amazing day, everyone absolutely loved the first dance at the turn table and all the guests were very impressed by the food and service. Overall we had a fantastic wedding day, the hotel has a lovely family homely vibe which fit perfect for our wedding. With fabulous staff and an idyllic setting with beautifully kept grounds we would highly recommend this venue and a Christmas themed wedding in this setting is just magical :)

I feel a little saddened when I read these amazing reviews of the Station House for people's weddings. I feel like I was not so lucky on my own day. Let me first say that the Station House is a stunning venue and we had the most beautiful ceremony there, and any of the staff we dealt with on the day were very nice. However the service on the day was a big disappointment and I'm still feeling let down by the Hotel. Our Wedding Coordinator was good to deal with on the run up to the wedding, but we hardly saw her on the day. We had a new manager in charge of our big day. It's obvious now that she was inexperienced. Where do I begin? There was no wine served at the dinner until I actually had to ask for them to serve it. They forgot to give our guests the toast drinks that we had arranged (I didn't even realise this until the next day and I was so embarrassed) Some of my friends have since told me that the service at dinner was not good. I shudder to think of what happened that I dont know about. The worst thing that happened was when manager closed the bar and actually went home at 12 o'clock without telling us there would be no more drink served. This was very upsetting. The manager eventually came back to the hotel and did us the 'favour' of selling us bottles of beer and wine. We were all residents and it never entered my head that this would happen. Perhaps Covid restrictions meant they had to close the bar at a certain time, however we were never told this beforehand. By the time the problem was sorted the majority of our guests had gone to bed which ended the night for us. There were a number of other silly mistakes that I won't mention. I filled in a questionnaire (honestly) at their request and I never even got a response to that. I chased it up and finally got an email from the General Manager who apologised and offered us a free night at the Hotel. I have since emailed about this and yet again got no response. I paid good money for my wedding at the Station House yet I've been left with a very bad taste in my mouth about the whole day. We were a very very easy couple to deal with, who made no demands, but they got the simplest things wrong. I feel a big sense of unfairness that people have amazing weddings at the Station House while we were so badly let down on the day.

We got married at the station house and we truly could not have had a better day. The setting is beautiful, the turntable and the walk way up to it in particular is like a fairytale. The newly refurbished carraige suite is also stunning and so different from a typical hotel function room. The rooms and overall finish of the hotel itself is just superb. Food was also excellent and there was plenty! We also loved having exclusive use of the venue which was a big priority for us. Staff were amazing, in particular wedding co-ordinator Sarah and manager Niamh were just a god send they could not have done more for us, every request was catered to.

We had our wedding in The Station House Hotel on July 8th & it was perfect. The setting is just magical & beautiful. The entire staff team were so friendly & helpful & looked after us all brilliantly for the 3 days that we were there. From the moment we arrived the evening before our wedding till we left 3 days later, we were looked after & catered for like no where else we've ever been. Nothing was too much trouble for them & they made us, our families & guests feel so welcome. The food was amazing & you have to see how beautiful the function room was as well as the entire hotel, after its recent refurbishment. It is out of this world. I would particularly like to thank Sarah, who helped with organising it all, she is so lovely & made it so much fun, despite the stress of the pandemic & Niamh who over saw the running of the reception, she was amazing & so lovely, a true professional & it all went so smoothly, both these staff members are such an asset to the hotel, as are Andrew & all the others, ( too many to mention) . We will return time & time again as we felt so at home there & love the food & atmosphere. You have to see this place to believe its beauty. If you are looking for the perfect fairytale wedding, then this is your venue. It is absolutely stunning. If my new husband would agree to it, I'd go back every year to renew our vows! Lol. Thank you to everyone in the Station House Hotel, you made our day & whole experience so special, memorable & magical. We shall be back soon. 10 stars all the way.... Xxx

It took me a long time to write this review, we have been married for over 4 months at this stage but I wanted to make sure my review was not written out of emotion and that we still felt this way a few months down the line. I do not like writing unhappy reviews, however, myself and my husband spent our entire life savings on this day and it just was not up to the service we expected or paid for. For context, we got married during Covid 19 when we could only have 25 guests at the wedding reception, in order to function with this little numbers we had to pay an additional venue hire fee, which put the cost of our per person amount at almost double the original (I did not have a problem with this at the time, but I am disappointed with the service for the money we paid). Let me start by saying we had a wonderful day regardless, the venue was beautiful, the staff were lovely and our guests had a great day. However due to the service on the day we were very disappointed. On the run up to the wedding we had been working with the wedding coordinator who was excellent, she really has a gift for weddings and made us feel confident and taken care of. Unfortunately, she was not there for the whole day of the wedding, she was only there at the beginning of the day. I didn't not expect her to be there for the whole day but I expected the person left in charge after her to be informed about my wedding. Numerous things on our wedding day either were wrong or didn't happen. During the ceremony I had asked for the pink carpet on the aisle as I didn't like red carpets, I had showed a picture of the pink carpet and they said they weren't sure if they still had it but if they did they would use it and if they didn't there would be no carpet, which I agreed to. However on the day of the wedding there was an old tattered red carpet which I didn't know about until walking down the aisle, it is now in all of our wedding pictures and looks horrible. I guess there was a communication issue on which of the old carpets to use. On the day my husband had to ask for the bathroom baskets we had made to be put in the bathrooms as he saw that there weren't there. During the reception numerous things went wrong, and old seating plan was used with people who were not at the wedding as they couldn't travel, even though I had sent the most updated one within the time frame they required. I had to check over the table and ask them to get the placecards for the guests that were not on the old seating plan. When we sat down to eat, there hadn't been enough seats put out, which made me terribly embarrassed as it looked as though my grandparents weren't supposed to be at the wedding, because of this my grandparents table wasn't decorated and they didn't receive their placecard or menu which I had made. I know its only a small thing but the candle sticks on the table were not the ones we had chosen either. There was no music played during the reception even though they were given what music to play, my husband had spent months curating a playlist for this. We also had to ask for the speeches to take place, however, none of the staff knew how use the speaker so my husband had to leave the reception to go out to the car and get the speakers we had hired for the ceremony and set up the sound himself . When we went into the bar after the meal there was still no music being played, there was supposed to be a different playlist that my husband had curated for this part of the day. Instead his sister had to give them her phone to play, meaning she had no phone for the night. It felt that we had to check every single detail at every step of the wedding which is the last thing we wanted on the day. Then after all that, on the morning after our wedding, we were staying in their bridal sweet which is a separate building and also where the bridal party had gotten ready. They did not tell us that there was only one tank of water. I had a bath in the morning and I guess with that on top of the bridesmaids getting ready there, there was no hot water left for my husband to have a shower. When he tried to use the cold shower, it then broke and would not turn off, we rang reception with no answer so my husband went down to get someone. There was then a workman in our room for the whole morning and my husband had to shower in his sisters room. I do not have any issues with the shower breaking, it's a part of life and not something you can plan for, however, there were no accommodations made for us, no other shower or space provided, thankfully his sister offered her her room. Overall we were just so disappointed on the day especially because of the extra cost we had to pay. Let me stress that the staff were really kind and helpful when asked upon. The issue seemed like it was communication, their staff on the day should have been given detailed information about our wedding.

Firstly let me say, besides from the beauty of this venue, the best thing about it definitely was how helpful and amazing Sarah, the wedding coordinator is, myself and my fiancé decided to go ahead with our wedding on our original date regardless of covid and all it’s restrictions, after weeks, months even, of turmoil of postponing. We decided instead of our original venue, we would find something in our county just in case worst came to worst and in 2 months Sarah helped me organise my dream day. The food, staff, services, rooms and grounds are all absolutely amazing, I really feel like I had the most beautiful wedding, and I would recommend The Station House, Sarah and all the staff to anyone whos looking for a beautiful and scenic venue with the friendliest and most accommodating staff! Thank you so much Sarah for everything!

Having seen our wedding postponed twice, both in March and August, we re-booked the Station House for November. Having originally booked for over 120 guests we worried that our big day would not be as memorable with just 25 guests. How wrong we were! A smaller crowd meant that our venue was changed from the function room to the restaurant. The wedding team in the Station House created a stunning venue for us and our guests. Flowers, scented candles and personalized menu cards were expertly arranged to create a heavenly reception venue. On arrival at the Station House we were met by friendly and attentive staff who served up prosecco, craft beer and delicious canapes. Photographs were taken in the stunning grounds of the hotel. From the beautiful gardens to the historic turntable, there were so many idyllic places for wedding photos to be taken. Our photographer commented that it was an ideal setting. Following our speeches which were held in the bar, we moved into the restaurant for the meal. Every guest commented on the quality of the meal from start to finish. it is impossible to pick out a highlight of the meal - it was so good. More than enough for all guests and extras offered to those with a larger appetite. Staff during the meal were very attentive and were quick to assist with anything requested by guests. Following our meal we retired back to the bar. Although no live music was permitted due to COVID rules, the intimate atmosphere of the bar meant there was no shortage of chats and laughs. Luckily for us, a wedding guest was a trained pianist and he was happy to play some tunes on the hotel's piano which of course lead to an impromptu sing-song. At the end of the night we retired to our honeymoon suite. The Honeymoon Suite simply is a must-see. Luxury, comfort and history all rolled into one. The Station House Hotel went above and beyond to ensure we had a dream day. The wedding team of Aimee and Sarah went above and beyond to ensure we had a dream day.

Response from The Station House Hotel

Dear Ian & Suzanne Wow! Thank you for the amazing review. We are delighted that you got to go ahead with the date too. COVID has certainly turned peoples lives upside down so it was really great that you got to enjoy your special day with your guests. We are truly blessed with the whole team here at The Station House and I will pass your compliments on to all. We look forward to welcoming you back again soon. Best wishes for your future together.

The Station House Hotel is a wonderful location for a wedding, highlighted by the warmth and professionalism of their staff, who were extremely friendly and helpful, with no request being too much for them. This was emphasised by their wedding coordinator Aimee, who was fantastic to deal with. We had to postpone our wedding from March until September due to Covid and Aimee was always so positive and friendly, no matter the question or issue and always put our minds at ease. It is a beautiful location and one we fell in love with from our first viewing. The recent renovations to the hotel have made it even more charming. The whole process from food tasting to our wedding day was great and very relaxed. Aimee was always on hand to guide us through the whole process, giving advice and ensuring that our wedding day would reflect what we were looking for and would run smoothly. We were extremely lucky with the weather for the weekend as it was lovely and sunny. The wedding itself had a very relaxed atmosphere, thanks to Aimee, Emma and the staff. We had an amazing day, and nothing was too much to ask. The function room, turntable and grounds were decorated beautifully. With the great weather, we were able to spend more time outside chatting with our guests and take advantage of the grounds. The grounds are beautiful, they are nice to explore and are a great setting for wedding photos. The hotel is a lovely, relaxed setting full of charm. If you are looking for a venue for your wedding, we would highly recommend the Station House Hotel.

We wanted to try and take some time to thank you and to put into words how much we appreciate everything that was done for us last week. > > Aimee, you kept in touch with us throughout the build up and answered our many questions with patience and understanding. You reached out to wish us good luck and made all interactions so personal, friendly and full of laughter. You basically made planning a wedding smooth, easy and enjoyable. > > Sarah and Denise, who listened to my many tears over the phone last week, when we were convinced we would need to cancel, you were full of help and reassurance, and massively helped to reduce our anxiety. > > To all the staff on the day, who were so personal with us, everytime they spoke with us. You laughed with us, and made us feel like absolutely royalty for the day. Nothing was too much trouble. The hotel in general exceeded every expectation we could possibly have had in our minds. We are beyond satisfied with our choice to book our wedding with you, and have been since that first day two years ago, when we drove up the driveway and were greeted by Emmett. We booked immediately and have never looked back. > > Finally to Emma, we can't begin to express our gratitude to you. Above and beyond doesn't begin to describe all that you did. Staying the night on Friday, to allow me to stay over, just to calm my hysterics, in itself is so mind blowing, but you were always within eye shot throughout the day. We knew you were crazy busy, keeping everything under control. As far as we were concerned the day went without a hitch. > On a personal note, in the run up to the wedding I was worried about getting ready to walk up the aisle after my bridesmaids had gone ahead. I was so worried about being alone with my thoughts at that moment, and not having my dad beside me. But you stood in front of me, almost as if you knew, you kept eye contact, and you reassured me that you will stay alongside me, on the other path, while I walked myself. I will never forget that moment, and the support I felt from you. I may have been a teary bag of emotions, but I knew I wasn't alone. > > Without hesitation, we would recommend the station house hotel to anybody that will listen, for any occasion. > > When all odds seemed against us, you were as determined as we were to see the wedding through. Your work ethic and professionalism knows no bounds. > > Please let us know, when you might open again as a hotel to the public, we will be first on the list to return and hope to return regularly for a long time to come. > > A million "thank you"s and much love > Ann and Mark Callanan

The food and service was second to none. Aimee our wedding coordinator was the loveliest person and nothing was a problem and both herself and Emma made us feel like absolute VIPs on our wedding day. We had such a rollercoaster leading up to wedding due to Covid19 and restrictions but the station house were so positive and we felt so safe.

We got married in the Station House in September 2020. We were one of the few lucky couples who were able to actually have our wedding this year. We had to make some changes in line with restrictions, but the day turned out so special for us that we really didn't mind in the end. The staff in the Station House were to thank for that. Even in the middle of all the madness and uncertainty of Covid restrictions, Aimee and all the team at the Station House really made us feel that our wedding day was the most important thing going on! The venue itself has a beautiful set up and it was perfect for a personal wedding with no fussing. All the staff made everything so easy for us and our guests were all very impressed with the venue and the food as well couldn't have been better. We were extremely well looked after on the day.

We got married in the Station House, Kilmessan on the 4th of September which was our original date. We had a short engagement and organised our wedding within 5 months however regardless of the short time our journey was plain sailing and enjoyable thanks to the general manager Emma and our wedding co ordinator Aimee, no question was silly or task too big for these incredible girls! Organising a wedding during a pandemic and also working on the frontline was challenging but regards our venue we didn’t have to worry about anything. On our wedding day the sun was out and we got to get married outside with incredible photos around the grounds, everyone felt safe with guidelines adhered to and we were able to enjoy our wedding day despite reduced numbers.

We found the Station House at a wedding fair. When we went to visit it was love at first site. The venue is beautiful and the new renovations are fabulous. We had our challenges with Covid starting at 120 guests and ending up with 45 but the team at the hotel were fabulous throughout the process. They were so flexible on the day getting us umbrellas and blankets for the outdoor ceremony last minute and adjusting times wherever necessary as the day developed. The guests had a ball and we're recommending the venue to their friends from the next morning. The food was also delicious.

After having to reschedule and eventually cancel our destination dream wedding we decided to have a look at some Irish venues. We immediately fell head over heels in love with The Station House Hotel, Kilmessan. We were sold before even sitting down and chatting with Aimee Mooney, the wedding coordinator. It all got even better from there. In the midst of a pandemic and such tight restrictions we were looked after with such care. Nothing we asked for was too much. Aimee and the team kept in touch during every government announcement. They were there when I needed a cry about numbers, they helped me figure out how to keep everyone happy during such challenging times. This was all new for them too, and they handled it amazingly. I didn’t have to do any stressing on the short lead up to our special day. The price of the packages they offer is absolutely amazing. We were on a tight budget with loosing out from our original wedding booking but it wasn’t tight for The Station House. We were blown away by what was included in the packages, we were so delighted to be able to afford so much. We went for the Summer Express package - it is excellent. We got married on the 18th August 2020 and the day went so smoothly and perfectly. Aimee and Emma Donegan looked after everything, I didn’t need to think about a thing other than having a fantastic day. The grounds are absolutely stunning. The food was so gorgeous - from breakfast, afternoon tea, nibbles and dinner. The facilities are excellent and you want for nothing. You don’t even need to do any decorating because their decor is simply stunning. Although the venue is an old train station it was fully accessible for both my daughter who has mobility issues and my nana who is 95. The grounds are small and intimate and there was rooms to suit every one. The hotel’s accommodation is fabulous. It is newly renovated. It is so chic, stylish and vintage all in one. Right up my street! And also so fitting with the beautiful surroundings. We got married in the turntable, it was the most enchanted, stunning and unique place. The sound of nature and the tall trees surrounding us was just magical. I can’t stress enough that under such tight rules and restrictions Aimee and Emma really made our day so perfect and full of love. While being very professional it was like having two friends organise and guide your wedding day. We will be forever grateful for them and the Slattery family

We had our wedding at the Station House in March. We had a fabulous day and staff at the Station House went above and beyond to ensure our comfort and enjoyment. Aimee and Sarah were so helpful throughout the entire process, and were very accommodating when covid restrictions resulted in changes to dates and wedding numbers. The hotel, which has recently been refurbished, was beautiful and was a hit with our guests. The grounds are spectacular too. Our reception was held in the library room, which offered a beautiful and cozy ambiance. The waiter (unfortunately I didn’t get his name) was amazing, so polite, professional, and helpful!

We had our wedding in October 2019. Searching venues was so difficult and I knew what I wanted from the start but nowhere else I had viewed gave me that feeling the Station House did. From the beginning to emailing Sarah (wedding Planner) I knew we wanted to have our special day there. When we arrived for our wedding viewing the hotel was just stunning and the grounds beautiful. Sarah was so amazing, she made us feel like we were the only bride & groom out there. Anything we asked for they met our needs. Nothing was an issue & they went above & beyond for us both. We had many meetings coming up to our wedding day & each time was so pleasant & we were treated so well. Sarah took such an interest in every part of our day not only the venue but, dresses, hair etc. All the staff are so friendly, The food was exceptional (words from our guests too) and the ballroom was finished to the finest detail.

The Station House Hotel is a fantastic venue for a wedding and I would highly recommend it to any couple. There was nothing I could fault them for. Every aspect of our day was covered and all the extra little details that made the day so special and unforgettable. The setting and grounds are fabulous for photographs. The bridal suite is beyond amazing - a very unique experience. The staff were all brilliant and so friendly and helpful. I have regularly been at a wedding where you feel at the end of your night you have overstayed your welcome. This was not the case the staff at the end of the night were still as friendly as they were at the beginning of the evening. The food was beautiful and we have since gone back to have dinner there on special occasions. The Station House Hotel is a must see for any couple that are looking at venues for their special day. They will not be let down by this quaint special place.

Our wedding at the Station House Hotel was absolutely incredible! We found Michelle and Jade, the wedding planners, very easy to deal with in the run up to the wedding. They were always on the other end of the phone or would reply via email promptly. Their attention to detail was second to none. Ciara in accommodation was fantastic about answering questions and changing rooms. On the day itself, Emma was absolutely incredible! She made sure everyone was catered for, even people who hadn't submitted their dietary requirements prior. My grandparents are in their late 80's and my husband Nana is in her early 80's, Emma made sure they were especially well looked after. The venue itself is beautiful. We were lucky that the weather was beautiful and we could have our ceremony outside in the wonderful turntable. All of the food was delicious! The Station House focus heavily on good quality local produce and it shows. All of our guests thoroughly enjoyed their day, night and the great breakfast the following morning. My husband and I can't speak highly enough of the Station House Hotel and would highly recommend it to any couple getting married.

One word to describe The Station House is magical. On the 07 September 2019 my dream came true. I had the perfect wedding day in the most beautiful setting. If you are looking for vintage, romantic, and something special the Station House will not let you down! Words can't describe how magical this place is with its fairy lights, vintage decor and amazing team. I train customer service skills, and as such have very high expectations for same. The team at the Station House excel at making you and your guests feel at home. I remember a few days before the big day we were in the Station House finalising last minute details, and while we there one of the lounge girls and bar men came up to us to personally introduce themselves, and wish us luck before the big day, which I thought was a lovely gesture. I also have to give a special thank you to Jade and Emma, (wedding coordinator and operational manager) for making sure everything ran like clockwork on the day. Words can't describe how grateful we are for our beautiful day. Thank you so much for helping to make our day perfect xxx

We had a perfect day at the Station House Hotel. The staff were attentive, the grounds were lovely and lush and they made us feel really special. We received personalised champagne flutes on arrival, which was a nice touch. Having our speeches outside made them less formal and more relaxed. The food was exceptional. Everyone is still commenting on how quality the food was. The soup was hot and delicious. Venue was stunning and table settings were fabulous. I loved the glittery table cloth that went under the cake stand. The only part of the Process where I left let down was on communication. Sometimes we have to chase to hear back from the coordinators (who changed over the year). Also we live abroad and the station house were unable to accommodate us for a food tasting on a day other than a Wednesday, which didn’t work for us to visit. The food turned out lovely but it would have been nice to have had the tasting experience. All in all a brilliant day, great money for value and I would very highly recommend them.

Fell in love with the venue straight away, and booked it at the earliest opportunity. Great to be able to have an outdoor wedding in such an unusual and beautiful setting (has to be seen to be believed). Staff were really great and the level of service was outstanding. Found Michelle and Niamh, the two wedding coordinators we dealt with very professional and easy going. Emma, the restaurant manager was in charge of things on the day itself and was really outstanding, in particular making a special effort with elderly guests and their dietary requirements. Food was top notch and again allergies and dietary requirements were very well catered for. Lovely to have such an intimate and private venue for the day. Loved our day and the Station House really lived up to its reputation. A big thank you to all the staff!

We had a fabulous wedding weekend at the Station House, Emma and the team on the weekend were amazing and everything went off so well. In the run up to the wedding, there was a change of wedding planners and we found it hard to communicate as were were dealing with 2/3 diff people becuase of this some small things got missed. Other than that we were over the moon at how well our wedding went and would recommend to anyone

Response from The Station House Hotel

Dear Laura, We are delighted that you enjoyed your weekend so much with us and that the special day went so smoothly for you. We are deeply sorry about any confusion that may have happened on our change over of staff. We look forward to welcoming you back to the house soon. Kind Regards The Wedding Team

We couldn’t have chosen a better venue for our day, We got married in the turntable and it was absolutely magical. Michelle and Emma and the rest of the staff couldn’t have done more for us. The day totally exceeded our expectations. From the very first visit to kilmessan we were made feel so welcome and nothing was ever a problem for the staff, they were so professional and friendly. Honestly the best day ever.

We decided in November 2018 to look for a venue with a date in mind of March 2019! We had looked at some other venues but the outdoor ceremony site with all the fairy lights and lanterns really sold it for us. And the intimate homey feel, we would be the only ones there so no strange guests would be wandering around. Michelle was amazing and so accommodating of our scatter-brain planning style. They provided a list of suppliers that we could use or not, after some searching we booking all of the recommended suppliers, they were brilliant. They set out realistic and achievable deadlines for payments so it didn't feel overwhelming. Michelle even gave us the idea for The Fire Guys for our evening entertainment. 6 months later, people are still talking about it. Emma on the day was like a super-ninja, out of sight working her magic so nothing went sideways. The outdoor ceremony was beautiful, food was amazing, definitely worth going back just to eat! It didnt feel stuffy and "the usual". The salmon was divine. I loved the throne chairs especially with my poofy dress. They really thought of all the little things to make our big day unforgettable.

The team at The Station House were fantastic and we had a wonderful wedding day. We arranged the wedding from abroad so we could only call or email but their communication was great and they were so easy to deal with. Everything on the day was excellent, the venue and food were amazing. We had both the ceremony and reception on site - using the beautiful outdoor area for the ceremony (even in Jan!). The Carriage Suite was so beautifully decorated, perfect to host our guests. Everything ran so smoothly and the team on the day were wonderful. We would highly recommend The Station House to anyone considering it as a venue.

Wedding 20th Oct 2018

We had our wedding on October 20th this year. To say it was an amazing day would be an understatement. For a start, obviously the venue is absolutely beautiful and the old train turntable in the woods was what initially sold us on this venue as we really wanted an outdoor ceremony more than anything. The hotel itself is also lovely, the bar area and library are very cosy and welcoming.. all our guests kept telling us how lovely the place was and how it was one of the nicest venues they’d ever been at for a wedding! On the day, I have to say the staff were superb, they were there to help and be there 100% for every request and query, in particular I want to mention Grainne from front desk and Emma who was there facilitating everything for the ceremony and reception, they really couldn’t have done more and again people have been commenting on how great the staff were. The food was beautiful and again everyone said how fab it was especially the mains which were chicken and salmon.. I couldn’t have asked for a better day and we’re so happy we chose the Station House, I only wish we could do it all again! The day whizzes by sooo fast :)

I have to say from the moment we went to view the hotel every single member of staff were so friendly, helpful and professional! Nothing was ever too much trouble for them and on our wedding day we did not once have to worry about a thing! The all inclusive package is amazing value for money and such a life saver if like myself your life was already hectic before you started planning your wedding! Last but not least I can’t forget to mention the stunning grounds at the station house hotel are such a fab bonus to an already fantastic venue! We had such an enjoyable wedding day I could not recommend this place any more!

Dear Patricia Many thanks for your review, and we are really sorry that no-one has been in touch with you as yet on the Polaroid. One of our wedding team will be in touch this week on this, and am very sorry that for some reason it did not take the full amount of pictures on the day - thank you for bringing it to our attention. On the room temperature, again that is a strange one as usually we have the opposite complaint of the buildings being too hot. Again, we are very sorry for this and hope it didn't upset your day.

The Station House Hotel was a wonderful place to get married. Emmet, Niamh and all the team went above and beyond for us and created a truly special day. Niamh took every little detail into account and was so professional throughout. Emmet was by our side from beginning to end. Always at the other end of the phone and very fast responding to the many emails sent. The hotel staff are all so friendly - there is a lovely, warm, family feel in The Station House Hotel. Emmet also talked us through the whole day and was always a few steps ahead of us making sure the day ran smoothly from start to finish and was there with a glass of prosecco or a pint for us in little moments of quiet! I would thoroughly recommend The Station House Hotel for any special occasion. The food is delicious. The grounds are immaculately kept and the hotel itself is so charming. All our guests had a fabulous time and we had a Wedding we cherish forever. Thank you so very much to The Station House Hotel!!

My husband and I got married in the Station House in early May. We have nothing but good memories from the weekend and the Station House, all its staff played a huge part in this regard. Emmet, the wedding planner, deserves a special mention as he was our point of contact and made sure everything ran smoothly on the day. From when we first went in to discuss our big day, we found the Station House very accommodating and receptive to our requests. Emmet was always available to us and responded to any e-mails, calls and requests in a very timely manner. We were very lucky to get a beautiful sunny day and weekend and as result the reception could be spread between the Carriage Suite and the beautifully turned out gardens. We got some great photographs out here also and it certainly enhanced the reception hugely. As with any wedding, the food is extremely important and we received a huge amount of positive feedback about the meal. It went down well with all the guests and personally we really enjoyed it also. All in all, we couldn’t have been happier with the day I would certainly recommend the The Station House as an exceptional wedding venue.

We were seeking a venue for a small wedding.

The wedding was in June and we wanted to hold the ceremony outside in the beautiful grounds, with the lovely stone bridge as the backdrop. The weather was nice enough but at the end of the ceremony it started to rain heavily. We all went back indoors to sign the documents, but the photo session we had planned for outside was compromised. The staff immediately set up the large room where we could do the photo session. They were so helpful, dealing with the last minute change so professionally and in such a friendly way. The venue is fantastic but i have to say that the staff made it even more special, and they made our day!

They were a bit uncertain at the start of our planning as we met with 4 different people at first - one planner left, replaced by another one who moved on, then the manager of the hotel and finally another planner who was fantastic. Bit of a mix-up with rooms on the day before the wedding which got sorted. The venue was exactly what we wanted - we could do everything in the one place without all that moving from church to hotel messing that usually goes on. It meant we had a lovely relaxed atmosphere at our wedding which is what we wanted. Food was fantastic as well.

We had a lovely day here. We were looked after so well from the moment we booked the hotel a year prior to our wedding. The day was very relaxed and ran so smoothly. Some of our guests told us it was the best wedding they had been at. The food was delicious, can't wait to go back for our anniversary dinner

Response from The Station House Hotel

Hi Aoife & Dermot, We are delighted that you and all your guests enjoyed the food so much. I will pass that on to our chef. See you both in April. Vivienne

Perfect, unique and intimate setting, premises made us feel very special and I liked that our wedding was the only event being held on the day. Very personal and flexible attitude from all staff & MGT which was appreciated. Finally the food! the food was second to none, eat there once and you’ll understand! This was the first premises we looked at, and with every subsequent premises we visited we were just comparing them to The station House.

I was a very chilled out bride and had total support from the Wedding Planner Sarah. It was a total pleasure in dealing with everyone at the station house. The only thing that couldnt be controlled was the weather which was like the band Wet Wet Wet but that didnt dampen our day at the venue

I would just like to take this opportunity to thank all the staff at The Station House where we enjoyed a wedding like no other. From the arrival to the dinner, to the stay over and on to the next day breakfast and checkout, the entire time was absolutely stunning. Will highly recommend to all. Special thanks to Derek who helped me (the Best Man) throughout the day. Many thanks again. C. Quinn.

After attending a friend’s wedding at The Station House and falling in love with this enchanting little venue in its picturesque setting (looks great in the photos) we decided to have our wedding reception here too and we had a fantastic day! I can’t say enough about how our day was managed with the precision and refinement that only comes from experience, they truly made our day extra special. Because of this we had a stress free experience which allowed us to relax and enjoy the day also, something, I am told, is rare for a bride and groom. The food was excellent. Our guests thoroughly enjoyed the day too, which meant a lot to us. Special thanks to Derek and Henry for their excellent attention to detail, Sarah our wedding planner and all the staff for their friendly and attentive service, no one wanted for anything at anytime. Many thanks for a wonderful day; we look forward to visiting again.

We celebrated our wedding in fantastic style here a few weeks ago and loved every single second of it. We cannot thank the staff at the station house hotel enough and we are delighted that we chose this venue (and would/will highly recommend it to anyone) The guests from near & far, who joined us on our wedding day, raved about the hotel and how happy they were with the setting, the service and the food. We chose an all inclusive package, and each of the hotel suppliers were excellent and gave us lots of time and an excellent service- Alan (image house) met with us for an afternoon prior to the wedding as did Ruairi from Irish wedding DJs - we had not expected that either would be so available and generous with their time (not only this, we really enjoyed chatting with them and I found myself looking forward to seeing them again on the day of our wedding.) Michael from Creative Cakes was very helpful and his website made choosing a cake easy & straightforward-the cake was lovely and exactly what I hoped it would be. ‘Flowers by Moira’ (Dunshaughlin), was also excellent and Moira gave me plenty of personal time in her shop and provided the flowers the evening before, beautifully presented -with tags to avoid mix ups ( also, Jenny is a Chelsea Flower Show gold medal winner-in itself, very impressive!) We decided to choose our own band (Juicer, from Drogheda), and their set up went smoothly and seamlessly (they were brilliant) We had a little Ukulele Band (Ukeristic Congress) who played for our guests on arrival- they set up in under the marquee and their music could be appreciated by guests both indoors and out. The children at our wedding had a great day and they explored in the woods and had a lovely time running about safely (with their parents not needing to worry as the wooded area is small) One of the lovely things about The Station House Hotel, is that there is a cosy feel about the place and it feels like the day in the station is exclusively yours. What impressed me most is that, the staff at The Station House Kilmessan were warm and friendly- every single last person I encountered in the run up, day of and morning after, was friendly and courteous- both front line staff and staff behind the scenes. Not only this, they appeared to be enjoying being part of our day, while at the same time, working together as a professional and very efficient team. Sarah (wedding coordinator) is brilliant at what she does and, from my first telephone call to make enquiries, she put me at ease and my gut feeling told me that this would be the place for our little wedding. The reception staff, bar manager, maitre d of the day, serving staff and all other staff who were part of our wedding and the run up to it, provided us with a 100% professional service. There was not one hitch on the day and it all went smoothly. We could not have enjoyed it anymore. It was simply perfect .The Station House Hotel do a brilliant job. It’s a very special place. If you are considering having your wedding in this quaint little place- it is well and truly worth paying a visit or arranging a meeting. If you are simply considering a visit, (non wedding related or wedding related!), you will be very happy with the look, feel and service of this hotel. It is a beautiful little spot (so, I have reviewed it separately, as this hotel does everything well-not just weddings)

We got married here in March and can’t say thank you enough to Sarah, Derek and the staff at the Station House. We live in Australia and Sarah made it so easy to organise and helped us out without hesitation, she was in fact our wedding planner and organiser! We opted for the Winter package and it was such good value, all the vendors were brilliant - Mary the flower lady was just a gem to deal with and the flowers were so brilliantly put together. John the Photographer was so good we didn’t even know he was there! The cake was so beautiful we didn’t want to cut it! and the driver was such an expert on all things wedding and directed my Dad and I when we got to the church and made us feel so at ease. The dinner was so wonderful and there was so much of it! The reception room was perfect for our size wedding of 120 and Derek was just so nice and helpful and made us feel so relaxed! He made sure we had everything that we needed and is a credit to the hotel. All our guests have commented that they had a great night and loved the hotel, I can’t recommend The Station House enough as it really made the day perfect for us!

I got married in the Station House Hotel in January 2013 but I can safely say that there are no words to describe how happy we were. From the minute we met with Sarah the wedding coordinator we just knew this was the place for us. She was always so helpful answering all the silly little questions we had along the way. Nothing was too much trouble. On the day itself Derek who is the banqueting manager was just amazing. He made us feel so relaxed. He took our best man aside to run through how the running of the meal and speeches would work (I think he even wrote a piece of his speech too although he never told us!!!) What can I say about the food........ wow!! Every course was a piece of heaven. All our guests complimented on the food. Their homemade Yorkshire puddings were so delicious that I asked for another one and they happily obliged!!! The highlight for me was their signature dessert, a symphony of desserts. It was just spectacular. The whole day and evening was flawless. We booked an all inclusive package with the hotel and they arrange the photographer, cake, car, flowers for the bridal party and church and the band. It was the most stress free wedding I could ever have hoped for. We had 130 people to our wedding and it was just perfect. I had spoken to many of my girlfriends who had gotten married over the last couple of years who had been totally stressed out leading up to their wedding but we just took everything in our stride and let the Station House arrange it all!!! All in all I would recommend this hotel to any couple looking for an intimate place to get married. The food and service are second to none, the staff are what make the hotel and I cannot wait to go back again for my first anniversary meal.

David and I would most sincerely like to thank Derek, Henry, Sarah and all the staff for making our day so so special and memorable. It was like a dream and was even better than we had hoped for it to be. Everyone remarked on what a magical, unique, picturesque setting for our ceremony and how the staff were so pleasant, helpful and went out of their way to make sure everyone was looked after and how great the food was. If we were to do it again we would most definitely be arranging it again at your hotel and could not recommend it highly enough to anyone who is going to get married. If they have half as good a day as we did they'd be lucky! Again thank you so much for making our day even more special than we could have imagined.

We just wanted to say thank you all so so much for giving myself and Ciaran the most wonderful day of our lives on the 9th of July last. The hotel in its own right is amazing but this would be nothing without wonderful staff, food and an atmosphere in the place that is second to none. From the very first night we went to look at the hotel, we were met by a friendly receptionist and we got a really good overall feeling about the place and knew it was the hotel for us. From dealings with Barbara, Patrice, Sarah and Henry, to name a few, nothing was too much trouble and you all made us feel at ease and that everything was taken care of, which on the day, was to the highest standard. It really is no accident that you continue to win awards for your culinary expertise and as wedding specialists. Friends and family are still raving about the quality of service and the food and what a gem the hotel is. Relations and friends that never knew of the hotels existence have, since the wedding, returned to lunch and dine and continue to rave! Even one of my best friends decided to return the following week after our day to book her own wedding with you and is getting married next March. Another old work colleague of mine is getting married in September and has been in contact with me to ask about our day and I have told her not to worry about a thing; everything will be taken care of 110 percent. The only thing I can say that let us down on the day was the good old Irish weather!! Hand on my heart it didn’t matter to us one iota! There were ample umbrellas at every turn and lots of the guests were commenting on how many there was going back and forth. Lastly, I would like to thank you for not rushing us out of the honeymoon suite the next morning even though you had to set up the next day for another wedding. There was no rushing and we were met by Sarah who was just “great” and got us supplied with a full Irish which was very welcome indeed even at our late check out time. I really could go on all day thanking you all. From the moment we arrived back in Feb 2009, to arriving on our special day, to the amazing entrance we had into the room; just everything was perfect. We couldn’t have asked for anything more and I cannot stop talking about the hotel. Looking forward to returning soon for some food and cannot wait to experience our friends wedding now from the other side in March next year. Thanking you ever so much and with warmest Regards

Hi Sarah and Henry, Wanted to say a Huge Big Thank You to both of you and to all of the Staff in the Station House Hotel. From the day we booked our Wedding, back in September 2009, until the day itself, we couldn’t have asked for more. No question was too much and everything on the day was perfect. The little touches you added on the day were fantastic and made the day all the more special. Everyone has been raving about it ever since and they all agree it was one of the most relaxed weddings they have been to and I have no doubt that was mainly down to the venue and the professionalism of the staff. The food was wonderful. We couldn’t have hoped for better. Kind Regards
