A Country House wedding

Temple house is a magnificent country house wedding venue

Set amidst a 1,000 acre private estate overlooking the lakeside castle of the Knights Templar in Co Sligo. We pride ourselves on the flexibility of our approach making this country house such a special wedding venue!

Perhaps it is because it has been the family home since 1665 that makes the atmosphere here so peaceful and special for weddings.

Temple House boasts rooms of enormous proportions and grandeur and yet there is a real sense of intimacy here too. The terraced gardens are spectacular, the whole setting breathtaking. We can welcome small intimate gatherings or larger parties. Wedding Capacity: 12-120 seated, (160 seated in two rooms), 200 buffet style.

We would always suggest that the wedding party take the house for more than just the day. You will enjoy your stay all the more. There is a special ambiance at Temple House and she loves a celebration.

“ Thanks again for letting us celebrate our wedding at your beautiful house. The day was truly amazing and everybody had a wonderful time.”

Ellen & Brian

“ Temple House suited us very well as we had a number of family members attending and we were able to stay in the house together the night before. This also made the day of the wedding itself very relaxing. We were able to contribute our own decorations (candles, flowers etc). Everyone remarked on the delicious food and everything went very smoothly. All in all we had a great day which we can look back on with nice memories in years to come.”

Maeve & Conan

“ We were the first couple to get married in the newly refurbished billiard room. It is a beautiful space with an enormous sky light. It was the first time it has been used since 1860! I cannot say enough about Roderick and Helena. We completely customised our wedding and the food, service and friendliness was exceptional!”

Deirdre

“ This is a wonderful unique venue and perfect for an indoor or outdoor wedding. We were blessed with amazing weather allowing us to have fantastic photographs and the drinks reception and speeches outside. Everyone who came to the wedding commented on the special venue. Helena and Roderick were very helpful in guiding our plans for the day but we were able to add lots of bespoke elements, you will not be fixed to a package at Temple House, but allowed to add your own touches.”

Louise

“ We loved the relaxed, family home atmosphere and different options with regard to wedding ceremony and reception. The Percevals are extremely good hosts that have an excellent, very polite and efficient team around them that made the day go by smoothly. Also the cook is great, and had the entire menu perfectly served for all our guests. Some guests even suggested that the pistachio mousse on a chocolate base was the best dessert they had ever eaten.”
