Fanningstown Castle is a luxurious four-star self-catering property located in Adare, Co. Limerick. Lovingly and sympathetically restored by the Normoyle family, this authentic 12th century Irish castle, is a beautiful home away from home for groups of up to ten people.
Hidden away in its own private grounds, Fanningstown Castle is just a stone’s throw away from Ireland’s prettiest village – Adare – and an easy 40-minute drive from Shannon Airport. Steeped in medieval history, Fanningstown Castle is the ideal place for family vacations, groups of friends wanting to spend a few days together and couples in search of a secluded romantic hideaway. And, if you are planning on tying the knot, Fanningstown Castle is also registered civil wedding venue, perfect for small, intimate ceremonies.
As a registered civil wedding venue, small, intimate weddings are our forte. Every wedding we host is unique to each couple with every detail planned exclusively for you and your guests.
For couples who would like to have a religious ceremony, Fanningstown Castle is within a stone’s throw of Holy Trinity Abbey (Roman Catholic), St. Nicholas Church of Ireland (Episcopal Church) and Adare Methodist Church.
Our magnificent dining room is the perfect setting for a wedding banquet for up to ten people. Or, if you prefer, we can take up to 20 guests for a buffet meal or barbecue.
