The main house you see at Loughcrew today was sympathetically rebuilt, with the help of architect Alfred Cochrane, out of the shell of the old orangery, azalea houses and furnace rooms. Two striking palm houses, used as an entrance hall and a dining room, bookend either side. It encompasses many charming original 19th century features, as well many stunning aspects which have been added by the present owner. It is not only a celebration space but a treasured family home.
The main house is attached to a Parisian style courtyard. The courtyard buildings, which include guest apartments and reception rooms, boast projecting porches with carved limestone detailing, as well as timber sash windows and slate roofs. It also provides amazing views towards the Loughcrew Hills and a cobbled floor which adds to it’s charm.
Loughcrew’s House and Gardens, along with several other features dotted throughout the 200 acres of estate grounds and surrounding countryside, form part of an Irish landscape steeped in historical and religious significance.
We pleased to be able to accommodate the happy couple and 25 guests here at Loughcrew. We believe being able to stay in the same place creates an intimate feel to a wedding. This is because there is nothing better than exploring your surroundings and having a good catch up with friends and relations before the big day, and then having time to reminisce the day after.
The accommodation we have available has been designed and decorated by owner Emily Naper herself with comfort and style in mind. Our accommodation options for your stay are as follows:
