Zetland Country House

Originally built as a sporting lodge in the early 19th century, Zetland House is on an elevated site, with views over Cashel Bay, and is now a charming and hospitable family-run hotel, with a light and airy atmosphere and an elegance bordering on luxury, in both its spacious antique-furnished public areas and the accommodation.

The gardens surrounding the house are very lovely too and, all round, it makes a delightfully romantic venue; the Prendergast family will help with all the details of your day, from helicopters to florists, to music and your wedding cake, and they also work with a local wedding co-ordinator. There’s an old church just 5 minutes’ walk away, overlooking the sea, and wedding blessings can be arranged at the hotel (which is very photogenic) too.

The wedding party must take over the entire house, which creates a house party atmosphere, and weekend weddings must take the house for two days - which should be a pleasure, as it makes a very pleasant base and there is so much to do in the area. (Two night special offers are available, including one dinner).

The reception is held in the light and airy dining room, which has sweeping views over Cashel Bay, and this is a hotel well known for good food - so you may look forward to menus which include the delicious seafood and Connemara lamb the area is renowned for, and fresh produce grown in the hotel garden.
