  • Coastal
  • Boating Tour
  • Fields
  • Cliffs

Want to get married at a real castle that you can see and touch (and climb on) and reserve just for you…?

Welcome to the Dingle Peninsula.

After getting ready at your lodging, we’ll meander over to this incredible, 500-year-old castle. This is an exclusive rental, so no tourists will be showing up to watch your ceremony. 

You’ll cross a field to the castle ruin, set in an even older ring fort, where you’ll exchange your vows surrounded by history and sheep. 

Our next stop is a secret cove out on the coast, away from the tour buses. We’ll head down a dirt track to a place that, although tucked away, has expansive views of rock formations and the sea. From there, you have a plethora of iconic places to choose from! Beaches, headlands, and piers (oh my). 

We’ll end your day in Dingle town, with either a pint or an ice cream. Or both. Both is good.

Additional Add-Ons

  • Hold your elopement memories in your hands with an archival-quality album! Designed for you, customised, and then hand-made in a professional lab.
Availability
