A closer look
A place with character.
This is the pub wedding done properly: a genuine thatched cottage with an open fire, and food that people come for on an ordinary night. It is informal by nature, which suits couples who want the day to feel like a very good Saturday rather than an event.
There is no accommodation on site, so Nenagh five minutes away handles the beds. All inclusive arrangements are available.
Before you book
Worth asking.
- Is the cottage yours for the day, or does it trade as normal?
