Our Sustainability Commitments

Our eco-friendly wedding venue is blessed with a stunning location and we care deeply about the environment - looking after our little part of the world is a big priority for us. We want to ensure that generations to come can enjoy our wonderful home. We strive to serve the wedding sector and our community in a sustainable way and are determined do the best we possibly can in reducing our carbon footprint. Alongside our current sustainable measures, we are keen to continue to introduce new environmentally friendly initiatives whenever we can like installing six EV chargers to encourage travel to and from our sustainable wedding venue that has a lower impact on the environment. We are truly a field to fork venue growing 70% of our own fruit and vegetables on-site using organic principles – meaning zero food miles – not to mention the tastiest food! We continue to invest in improved eco growing techniques and technologies, such as new irrigation systems – using water from our bore hole – and netting for organic pest control, to allow us to grow more, and to grow greener. Our sustainable wedding venue is home to pretty wildlife ponds, that are also functional. Our reed and willow bed uses the waste water on site with a large amount of the excess returned to our onsite water table. Water from our onsite borehole is used to irrigate our crops and flush our toilets. The reed bed, our wildlife ponds, and water reserves also provide an ecological habitat for a wide range of animal species around our environmentally friendly wedding venue. We provide beautiful dried rose petal confetti for all our couples and in the Summer months our confetti is homegrown! Our Dublin Bay red roses are grown especially for confetti and we harvest and dry the petals for guests to use! All our sustainable efforts are possible because of our amazing team! We are proud to offer flexible working for local people who bring a wide range of skills to our friendly, happy Team.
