We got married at Killruddery, and I genuinely cannot imagine having celebrated our wedding anywhere else. It was the most magical experience, and we will always be grateful that we chose such a special place for one of the most important days of our lives. As an international bride planning a wedding from abroad, having a team you can trust is everything, and the team at Killruddery went above and beyond. Gemma was absolutely incredible to work with from the very beginning. She even FaceTimed me to show me the grounds while we were planning from overseas, and when we came over for our tasting, she was so accommodating, thoughtful, and wonderful throughout the entire process. She made us feel so comfortable and taken care of, even from thousands of miles away. One of the biggest highlights of our wedding was the food. Niall and his team worked incredibly hard to put together the most delicious dinner spread, and the food was truly outstanding. It was so important to us that our guests had an amazing experience, and the meal was a huge part of that. We are still so appreciative of all the care and effort that went into it. We also absolutely loved working with Fionnuala and Hanka on the flowers. Seeing the beautiful arrangements they create, especially now with flowers grown right in Killruddery’s own gardens, makes the whole experience feel even more special. What makes Killruddery so extraordinary is that it is more than just a beautiful historic estate. The grounds are stunning, the atmosphere is unlike anywhere else, and the people genuinely care about making your wedding unforgettable. Every detail felt special, and the entire experience was everything we could have hoped for and more. We cannot recommend Killruddery highly enough to anyone considering getting married in Ireland. We would choose it again in a heartbeat. Thank you to Gemma, Niall, Fionnuala, Hanka, and the entire team for giving us memories we will cherish for the rest of our lives.

I went there in the summer of 2022, I was in Bray to study and I was advised to go and see this fantastic garden, there was the possibility of going there by bus but I wanted to enjoy the walk and it is not very far indeed in my opinion you can enjoy the view more. The very kind staff and the castle plus the park are really magnificent places and also protagonists of film sets but what amazed me most are the various scenarios present such as the wooden houses perfect for children, the flowers of many types and very well kept, the huge labyrinth, the pond with four statues to protect it, there was also a chicken coop and a mini playground for children and much more but above all the majesty of the castle. I would certainly like to be able to revisit it.

A friend and I did the harvest wreath making class and loved it! The setting, materials and guidance were all second to none! The coffee, prosecco & cookies were all gorgeous. Delighted with my wreath and have already booked in for the Christmas course!

We purposefully visited a café and bought something small in a great natural store.

​We were so lucky to celebrate our wedding at the stunning Killruddery House. From our very first enquiry right through to the end of our wedding night, we received absolute five-star service. Nothing was ever too much trouble for our amazing wedding planner, who made the entire process completely stress-free. ​On our first viewing, we fell head over heels for the Orangery—it truly takes your breath away, and we knew instantly Killruddery was the one! On the day itself, the entire team worked seamlessly to look after us and our guests. The food and drinks were out of this world, from the drinks reception canapés right through to the gorgeous evening meal. ​The grounds and gardens are spectacular for photos, with incredible backdrops around every corner. We truly felt like the estate was ours for the day, finishing up in the fantastic Grain Store where we danced the night away until the early hours. Our guests still talk about how special the day was all this time later! We couldn't recommend Killruddery highly enough to anyone planning their big day!

Killruddery House & Gardens: simply magnificent! My friend and I spent a most wonderful day cherishing everything this place has to offer. We wandered the estate in awe, savoured coffees and scones in the tea room, tried the delicious pizza at the Pizza shed, browsed the Farm shop, and most and foremost, joined a wonderful and enriching guided tour of the historical residence. Our guide, Barbara, provided a most enjoyable experience, thanks to her extensive knowledge, humour and passion for the place. We simply can't recommend this place enough! A true gem.

You need to get a ticket to see a garden and their restaurant is reservation only. The farm shop has great optipns for local products I've never seen in Ireland.

Nice place to go for a walk and lunch
