About Lissanoure Castle
Lissanoure Castle is only 45 minutes from the centre of Belfast. If you are looking for that very special place to host your wedding, look no further. This stunning and unforgettable venue is available for both bespoke and package weddings throughout the year, giving you the flexibility to create your own unique day. We never hold two events on the same day. You have a choice between two fully furnished buildings to host your event, either in the Castle Coach House or in the Castle Barn or both.
All the rooms have open log fires, comfortable seating areas and there are fully stocked and licensed bars in both the Castle Coach House and the Castle Barn.
If you plan to have a bespoke wedding, you can choose your own caterer and menu from our list of first class caterers that we have worked closely with over the years. With our package weddings, we will organise the caterer who will provide tea and coffee, scones and shortbread during the reception, a three course sit down meal, and an evening supper.
The private grounds surrounding the castle make a most stunning backdrop for photographs.
We also can offer indoor or outdoor ceremony areas. So you are able to have your ceremony and reception all in one place. If you want to have a ceremony only at Lissanoure Castle, we do small elopement weddings to larger affairs. What ever your vision is, we are here to make sure that you and your guests will have a day that you remember.
There is also the charming All Saints Church Loughguile at the main gates to the estate where many of our couples get married.

The times for you to have access to decorate the venue will be arranged at your pre-wedding meeting but usually it is the day before the event between 1pm - 4pm.

Our Sustainability Commitments
Lissanoure Castle is set in the heart of the country at the foot of the Glens of Antrim and therefore we are well aware of our carbon footprint. Since 2000 we have planted over 50,000 deciduous, conifers and specimen trees around the estate. All our waste is sorted and recycled after each event.
