Surroundings

What we love about this Irish venue is that it offers a mix of Sligo’s contemporary, natural, and historic features. There are period furnishings inside, especially in the Grand Hall where you and your guests will feel like partying in the 1700’s. Outside, there’s a 500-acre land dotted with mature trees and picturesque gardens offering views of the River Unshin that flows through the castle estate.
