It has been a pleasure to deal with all the staff, they go above and beyond for the wedding couple and guests. The food was amazing, the hotel is spotless, and the room outside for the kids is a bonus. The white chapel made the ceremony so special. We had a brilliant day and would highly recommend getting married here.

Even if we had thought of something Emma and John were already doing it! We felt like the Clanard wanted us to have the best day ever, it felt so personal. With the Clanard Court Hotels package you don't have to worry about a thing except showing up on the day! Their trusted suppliers went above and beyond for us. We would highly recommend this award-winning venue and it is so obvious that they are the best in business. Everything from the decor, the rooms the unbelievably polite and helpful staff, the food, and the drinks was so amazing and we can only thank The Clanard for truly the best day of our lives

We viewed a few venues and from the moment we landed in the clanard and met with Emma and the staff. We knew there and then that’s where we wanted to have our day. They were so helpful with every single step of the way. And can I just say how incredibly sound they are like honestly we can’t thank them all enough. Even for the menu tasting, Owen gave us his tips and advice. Emma was fantastic any single time I needed advice she was there and never made a single issue of anything, she is fantastic to deal with. John on the day reassured us and kept us in the loop all the time and was so friendly honestly highly recommend this hotel it’s stunning but it was the staff that made us make our decision and we are so happy we did.

We had the most perfect day at the Clanard Court Hotel. From the time I booked I had Emma on hand to help me with everything. Emma was absolutely exactly what we needed to help us get our wedding the way we wanted it. Every detail was perfect. Meal tasting was great to help decide what we wanted to eat, and the food was truly lovely. The chefs produced detailed food of the highest standard for the wedding, everybody was talking about how good it was! The venue, function room and the accommodation were also perfect, exactly what anyone would want for their wedding. Comfortable, clean and with the most helpful and kind staff! The grounds were ideal for photos, the little White Chapel was decorated with beautiful flowers and it was beautiful! I really would recommend the Clanard Court Hotel to anyone looking for a venue to get married, I promise you will not be disappointed!

We had our day at Clanard Court Hotel on 14th October 2023 and it was AMAZING! From the moment we stepped foot in the hotel to view it and meet with Emma we knew straight away this was the place we wanted to get married. As well as the hotel being beautiful, every member of staff were so friendly and helpful. Service on the day was out of this world nobody could do enough for us and our guests and everyone commented on how brilliant the staff were. A special mention must be given to Emma our wedding coordinator she is unreal at her job! She was always there with quick replies and advice even when I was asking questions about silly things she was there from day dot helping any way she could. Emma is a true asset to the hotel! Another special mention needs to be given to John who went above and beyond looking after us and our guests. He was on the ball all day and night and really looked after everyone. Everything ran so smoothly, like a dream thanks to John. His wealth of knowledge and experience reflects in his work and we're so grateful to have had him oversee our day. The food was absolutely gorgeous everyone was raving about it. Nobody went hungry either as there was plenty of food all day/night. My mother in law and sister in law are coeliac and the chef made sure there was always something suitable available for them. My mother in law also said it was the nicest coeliac meals she's ever had! If we had to do our day over again we would chose Clanard Court Hotel every time, 100 times over, everything was perfect. Emma, John, Eoin and all the team at Clanard Court Hotel thank you all from the bottom of our hearts for making our day so special xx

I don’t even know where to start on the amazing service, attention to detail and kindness of the staff of the Clanard Court. On the day, Emma and John stand out a mile, I didn’t have a single thing to think of. I was so confident in the pair, I knew once I got to the hotel it was time to relax and enjoy the day. And that I did. Emma from the get go was easy to deal with, friendly and nothing was a problem. Kept in touch and helped throughout the year of planning and left my job very easy in regards planning. Her friendly, bubbly personality was alway there at the other end of the phone if I needed anything. The day of, she had everything running smoothly and I owe her a huge thanks for that. John on the other hand again so helpful, he copped something small on the wedding day that he wasn’t happy with from a supplier, he asked me could he change it. There wasn’t a second where I thought about it, I knew he knew best and he was right. It can’t go unsaid about the food, everything was amazing. The portions, the quality, the service. In particular, the braised beef cheek, weeks on people are still commenting on how amazing it was. I’d also like to rate the waiting staff, they were so fun and helpful and are often overlooked. The hotel in general is so beautiful. The private garden sold it for me, the kids hut in the private garden, the amazing lobby and of course the beautifully decorated function room. The attention to detail in this hotel is second to none. This is proved by how busy and popular the hotel is in the area. I can’t thank everyone at the Clanard enough for making our day so special for us.

My new husband and I had our wedding here on 18th August and it truly was the best day ever! The Clanard Court met every expectation and the whole day went off without a hitch. They are like a well oiled machine and I couldn’t fault a thing! Emma was absolutely fantastic, she answered every single question (and there were a lot) and dealt with every single request without a bother and always so promptly responding to emails. Our wedding was also postponed from 2021 and the way they handled everything through Covid with the changing numbers and restrictions was with such sensitivity and grace for a really stressful situation. They were prepared for everything. John was amazing on the day! All of our guests had nothing but the best to say about him. Our guests from the UK and America were especially impressed particularly with the dinner service (no spoilers)!! Everyone raved about the rooms and staff. I was lucky enough to stay in the bridal suite for two nights and it was just dreamy. It felt like every need was catered for, a direct quote from a guest was they wanted for nothing and were looked after all day! A long review I know but it is warranted. I can’t say enough great things about them, can’t recommend them enough for your wedding day or even just a weekend getaway! Beautiful hotel with lovely surrounds and incredible staff!

Food and service were high on our list of priorities and the Clanard Court excels in these areas! The ballroom is stunning and with the backdrop of their wonderful gardens it just elevates the whole setting. Our guests (most of whom had never been in the hotel before) are still raving about our wedding day, complimenting on everything from the beauty of the hotel, the fabulous food, the friendly staff, and immaculate rooms. If you're considering having your wedding in the Clanard Court, don't look any further!

From our first viewing, we knew it was going to be our reception venue. It was everything that we were looking for and more. Emma was a dream to work with. I was so relaxed coming up to the Wedding Day and I can honestly put that all down to her.. every query I had was answered asap & her attention to detail was amazing. All I can say is she is a pure genius at what she does. John, we met coming closer to the day for our menu tasting and apart from being a pure gent and a great laugh, he could not do enough for us. We had a few very fussy eaters on the day which had me a bit worried and, to be honest, I don't know how he did it but he catered for everyone and they are still raving about the food!! From Management to Staff, you know you're going to be in great hands. Thank you all for making our day so seamless and special & the best day of our lives!

Clanard Court Hotel is an excellent venue for a family wedding. It was a pleasure having Emma as our co-ordinator and friend from start to finish, as she left no stone unturned. The team, along with Emma, John & Eoin had a warm welcome for us on each occasion that we visited and the same was said by our guests. The food is delicious with a wide variety of options to suite all tastes, food presentation was delightful, prompt and friendly service, all our dietary requirements were catered for. Due to the weather, we didn't get to use all of the garden facilities but they are everything that you need. Private, enclosed, picturesque garden with a children's play room suitable for all ages, it went down a treat. Also the fact you can view the garden from the function room is a bonus. The accommodation is fresh and comfortable, can't wait to return.

She went above and beyond for us, answering a million questions and meeting our requests for the day. The staff accommodated our last minute request for a function room on Day 2 and even called some bar staff back in who had gone home. We would love to return for some anniversaries in the future as you are always looked after at the hotel.

All I can say is we had the best wedding day and can’t thank the Clanard team enough.

We got married in the Clanard Court Hotel on the 24/06/23. Booking the hotel was the best thing we ever did. Emma Ferris is an amazing wedding coordinator, you just tell her what you want and she makes it happen. Our ceremony was in the Little White Chapel, a truly unique setting. Our photos were taken in the gardens so there was no need to move from the venue meaning we actually got to enjoy some time at the drinks reception. The food was exceptional, piping hot and the service provided by John Kelly and his team was outstanding. Everything about the hotel is 5 Star. By the end we felt like part of the family.

Every single staff member went above and beyond to help myself and Jesse and all our guests, the drinks reception was incredible, no guest was left without a drink in hand. Dinner service was incredible and the food was hands down the best wedding dinner I've ever tasted. The Clanard Court were an absolute pleasure to deal with and we cannot thank them enough for making our day perfect.

The best decision we made when planning our wedding, was booking the Clanard Court as our venue, and here’s why: 1. Emma Ferris, our award winning wedding coordinator, supported us with her expertise, energy and positivity throughout the process. She made it all so easy for us. 2. John Kelly the operations manger, who never let a glass go dry, was on the ball with everything, on the day, and exuded calm, even when my speech may have run on a bit too long. 3. The rooms are spacious, beautifully decorated and comfortable. They look and feel expensive, even though they’re not! 4. The food was delicious and plentiful. 5. The genuine hospitality and attentiveness offered to us by all the staff was beyond compare. I’ve never stayed anywhere before where the staff were so happy and efficient in their work, as well as being genuinely friendly towards all the guests. 6. The lobby, with high ceilings and large windows, was the perfect setting for the drinks reception. It’s so bright and airy. The guests were delighted with the drinks selection, especially the beer on tap and The Pimm’s. 7. The kids were made to feel welcome and at home: special kids plates at the drinks reception, friendly staff, the kids’ cabin out the back, yummy kids’ menu at dinner. 8. The Chapel. It didn’t exist when we booked the venue but, oh my, what a wonderful surprise it was. It’s so beautiful and romantic. The setting is perfect. We couldn’t have found a better location for our ceremony had we trawled all the exclusive, boutique venues in Ireland. We got a unique setting and the ease of a hotel wedding, all in one! I don’t think there’s anywhere else you’ll find that! 9. Last but not least: our guests! They were singing the praises of the Clanard throughout their stay there and continue to reflect on what a great venue it is. Compliments have gone to the rooms, the food and the attentiveness of staff, in particular. some have mentioned wanting to go back to the hotel again. I know we'll be back.

The staff at the Clanard couldn't do enough for us on our wedding, it's an excellent venue and you can telling all the staff really love what they do. The pure excitement at reception when I arrived at the hotel to check in the night before was so infectious! Myself and my partner really clicked with Emma, the wedding coordinator straight away, she is so dedicated and organised but also down to earth and gave us great advice. We had the believe package which included so many extras, like a candy cart and bar extension. There was beautiful displays for the table plan and wedding cake, things I didn't have to give any thought to! The food was delicious, everyone commented on the tender blade of beef for main course. The room for reception is excellent with a big long bar space, doors that open straight into a beautiful private garden. I'd recommend this wedding venue to all future brides!

Emma (the wedding coordinator) pulled out all the stops to make myself, the groom and all the wedding guests have the most fabulous and memorable day. Emma is always welcoming, helpful and in great form anytime we dealt with her. She is truly great at her job. The attention to detail and little touches meant the world to us. John and the team who looked after the dinner were great as well. A number of the guests said it was the best wedding/hotel they were at which we were delighted to hear. The hotel itself, rooms and grounds are beautiful . We were so happy with the venue and will be regulars in the future.

We dealt with Emma throughout our planning process and she is incredible at what she does. She really made the whole process as easy and enjoyable as possible for us. We couldn’t have asked for a better wedding coordinator to work along side. A big bonus to this venue is the outdoor gardens which are beautiful and we were blessed with great weather on the day, our guests were able to sit outside and soak up the sun in a gorgeous setting. Everything ran so smoothly on the day and we didn’t have to worry about the little things, it was all taken care of for us by the Clanard Court staff. Thank you so much to Emma and all the team involved, we had the best day and it wouldn’t have been done without all your hard work. James and Chelsea

From start to finish, Emma was an absolute dream to work with. She was very responsive to all email queries that we sent over the planning stages. Emma was very knowledgeable about anything we asked in relation to the hotel, the packages and the services that can be provided. I loved that everything was clear and organised. We knew exactly how the day would flow and didn't need to make any last minute decisions on the day, which in turn made for a truly enjoyable day knowing everything was in place. On the day of the wedding, John was fantastic. Our guests were looked after to a level that many never experienced before. Our guests could not get over the venue, the food and the overall service. A number of guests have said that the attention to detail around food service was phenomenal, staff picked up on the small things but it didn't go unnoticed to your guests. The night before, we stayed in interconnecting rooms. On the morning of, we had hair in one room, make up in the other and could leave the dresses in the bridal suite until we were ready for them. We had hoped to go to the forest for photographs but because of the rain the days before the wedding, it was too mucky. The day of the wedding we were very lucky to get a lovely mild sunny day, we got all of our photographs at the front of the hotel, the lobby and the secret garden and have absolutely stunning photographs. We fell in love with the hotel from the first moment we visited and having the hotel to ourselves on the day felt very special. I was anxious about accommodation and ensuring that all our guests got back to their accommodation okay. Emma contacted the local taxi services to let them know they would be needed and it all worked out perfectly. All in all, we could not be happier with how the planning process and the day itself went.
