Clonakilty · Co. Cork
Dunowen House
A restored house on four acres of West Cork coastline, with vows under a 200 year old sycamore.
A closer look
A place with character.
Dunowen sits right out on the Atlantic near Clonakilty, and the ceremony happens outdoors under an old sycamore with the sea behind it. The house is restored to a high standard with twenty beds, so most of a small wedding sleeps on site.
This stretch of coast around Ardfield and Clonakilty is one of the best parts of the country to strand your guests for a weekend. Exclusive use is standard and catering is in house.
Before you book
Worth asking.
- What happens to the outdoor ceremony in bad weather?
- Are all twenty beds included in the hire?
- Is there a minimum stay?
