Barnabrow House
A family run estate near Cloyne dating to 1639, with a medieval style banqueting hall and 55 beds.
A closer look
A place with character.
Barnabrow is the rare venue with enough beds for nearly everyone, 55 of them across the estate, on 30 acres of east Cork countryside. The banqueting hall gives dinner a bit of theatre, and a separate cottage handles the pre dinner drinks so the main room can be turned around out of sight.
It has been in the same family for years and runs as a single wedding at a time. Ballycotton and the coast are close by, and Cork city is about 40 minutes.
Before you book
Worth asking.
- Is the full 55 beds available to a wedding party, and is it charged separately?
- Can you marry legally on site, or does that happen elsewhere?
- What is the latest the bar can run?
