Lisheen Castle, Moyne, Co. Tipperary

A closer look

A place with character.

Lisheen is rented rather than booked as a wedding package, which suits couples who want the run of a castle for a few days and no timetable imposed on them. Sixteen guests sleep in the castle, and the price reflects a full property let rather than a day rate.

Self catering means you organise the food, whether that is a private chef or something simpler. Moyne is quiet countryside near Thurles, central for guests coming from anywhere.

Before you book
