A closer look
A place with character.
Turin Castle is a restored tower house in south Mayo, let exclusively and self catering, with ensuite rooms inside the castle itself and 16 walled acres around it. Ten beds means this is a wedding for the very closest people only.
Legal ceremonies can take place on site and the ceremony setting is outdoors. Ballinrobe and Lough Mask are nearby, with Galway about an hour.
Before you book
Worth asking.
- What is the maximum for the ceremony and the meal, as against the ten beds?
