Mornington House, a historic Irish Country Manor offering luxury country house accommodation and exquisite home cooked dining located in the heart of the Co. Westmeath countryside, just 60 miles from Ireland's capital city of Dublin. Tranquility and warm hospitality are the essence of Mornington, home to the O'Hara's since 1858.
Mornington House is hidden away in the midst of a charming and dramatic landscape with rolling hills, green pasture, forests with ancient, heavy timber and sparkling lakes, deep in an unexplored corner of County Westmeath. Nearby are ancient churches, castles and abbeys, and delightful small villages to explore, away from all hustle and bustle of 21st century life, yet just 60 miles from Dublin.
There has been a house at Mornington since the early 17th century but this was considerably enlarged in 1896 by Warwick's grandparents. It is now a gracious family home with a reputation for delicious meals prepared in the fine tradition of the Irish Country House.
A special place to stay for a romantic or relaxing break Mornington House's location in the centre of Ireland just an hour's drive from Dublin and Dublin Airport makes it ideal for either a midweek or weekend country break. Guests can walk to the lake or wander round the grounds. Excellent golf, fishing, walking and riding can be arranged. The Hill of Uisneach, the Neolithic passage tombs at Loughcrew and Newgrange and the early Christian sites at Fore and Clonmacnoise are all within easy reach, as are the gardens at Belvedere, Tullynally and Loughcrew.
Mornington is a beautiful setting for your wedding and it lends a style and elegance to your day that is difficult to match. You will have exclusive use of Mornington which will give you and your guests the ultimate experience of privacy, style and intimacy.
Two large reception rooms greet you when you enter Mornington house with its original wallpaper dating back to 1898 when the extension to Mornington was built. These rooms are regularly used for family gatherings and holiday occasions and most recently to a family wedding. With a Marquee located on the extended croquet lawn in front of Mornington it was an ideal location for the family event.
The Garden at Mornington has been providing fresh fruit and vegetables to the O'Hara family and guests for over 150 years and provides a sheltered location to those wishing to steal away for some quiet time to themselves.. The walled garden could also be considered as a site for the wedding ceremony itself.
