Kenmare
Dromquinna Manor
An 1890s manor on a 40 acre waterfront estate at Kenmare, with a pavilion built for outdoor ceremonies.
Ireland
A small country house on the Dingle peninsula outside Tralee, taken exclusively for one party at a time.

A closer look
Barrow House is small even by small wedding standards, and it leans into it. Eight ensuite rooms, the whole house to yourselves, and a choice of ceremony spots including the Marble Room, the boat deck and the garden. Humanist, civil and spiritual ceremonies are all catered for.
The setting is the Dingle peninsula at its quietest, with Tralee a short drive for anything you have forgotten. Dogs are welcome, which matters to more couples than venues admit. Prices are not published.

Planning facts
For guests travelling in. Driving times are by road without traffic, from Barrow House, so allow more at busy times.
Railway stations are those on the Irish Rail network, and the nearest by road is not always the best connection. Check the timetable before you plan a guest's day around a train.
OpenStreetMap lists 31 places to stay within 10 km of Tralee, and 62 within 20 km. Distances are in a straight line, not drive times.
OpenStreetMap is mapped by volunteers and is thinner in rural areas, so treat these counts as a minimum and check booking sites for your dates. Map data © OpenStreetMap contributors, updated October 2026.
