It truly is the best place to have your wedding!

Clandeboye Lodge was the first venue we viewed, and we immediately knew it was the one! We had a Christmas wedding, or as some would say a 'GAA wedding', since it was during the off-season when we didn’t have any matches! It worked out perfectly and we were extra lucky to have the amazing Christmas decorations which made everything feel extra special. The team were amazing and so attentive - everything ran so smoothly because of them.

Every detail was thoughtfully handled

The stunning setting and the incredible staff made our wedding experience truly unforgettable. From the very first meeting, they were supportive, approachable and always just a phone call away to answer any questions. Every detail was thoughtfully handled from start to finish, and having all our loved ones together in such a beautiful venue made the day even more special. We couldn’t have asked for more.

The food is still talked about to this day

Our wedding was definitely unique as our date was Friday the 13th and there was no bad luck that day! We've been wanting to relive our special day ever since! From organising our Pot Noodle table to the epic Friday the 13th tattoo station, the team at Clandeboye Lodge went above and beyond. Everything was perfect and it truly was our dream day!

The venue really suited our relaxed vibe

The venue just really suited our vibe, it was lovely and relaxed. Nothing was too big or too small for the team and they were very patient with me changing my mind a lot! The hotel was amazing too. The bridesmaids and I stayed the night before and the Coq & Bull was lovely for something to eat.

The team were impeccable!

The ceremony room layout, evening room size, gardens and hotel exceeded our expectations, we fell in love instantly! Having everything in one place made the day much more enjoyable for everyone and allowed us to spend more time with our guests. Every staff member we met was incredibly kind and friendly. With constant smiles, they made us feel comfortable approaching anyone for help.

We all had the most fabulous day at Clandeboye Lodge. The wedding of my daughter and her fiance was organised to perfection and the whole day ran like clockwork. The entire team are a pleasure to deal with. I would highly recommend Clandeboye Lodge wedding venue.

We loved the cosy, warm feeling of the venue!

The setup for our wedding was exactly as I had imagined - funky and full of colour. I couldn’t have asked for a better team. We wanted our day to be different, vibrant and colourful, and that’s exactly what we got!

Couldn’t have asked for a better venue

It was the only place we ever viewed and we fell in love straight away. Clandeboye Lodge exceeded our vision for our special day… we couldn’t have asked for a better venue. We felt very special from beginning to end. The team were fantastic communicators throughout the process. We felt safe in their hands. If we could do it all over again, we would still choose Clandeboye Lodge.

The staff were so helpful!

Where do we begin! We chose to have our beautiful wedding at the Clandeboye Lodge from the first minute we entered the venue! It was beautiful and the staff were so helpful, making our day so special and meaningful. The food was better than we could have ever imagined, and the grounds/gardens were exceptional! Thank you so much for making our special day so memorable.

The gardens were immaculate

The location was perfect for us! With Joe being from Leeds, it was so convenient for our guests to stay at the hotel and have easy access to Bangor and Belfast. We don't say this lightly, the standard of the food and bedrooms was exceptional. The gardens, in particular, were immaculate, and even our photographer mentioned how amazing they were!

Travel Notes

Clandeboye Lodge is a place apart. Only a few miles from Belfast but fully immersed in the tranquillity of nature. Surrounding the hotel are glens, forests, rivers, paths, meadows and great golf courses, all ready to be explored. Gentle walks to refresh the body and restore the soul. So much to see. Close by is the ancient Bangor Abbey and St. Patrick's Trail; Helen’s Tower, the picturesque villages of Helen’s Bay and Crawfordsburn and the unique flora and fauna of the wonderful Ards peninsula and Strangford Lough. Hidden gems. Of course, you are close to city life too with Belfast’s bars, restaurants and tourist attractions as well as the vibrant cultural life of Bangor and North Down. But first and foremost, this is a place for lovers of the outdoors. The freshest of air, the gentlest of paces, the quietest of times and always returning to the serene luxury of Clandeboye Lodge for a drink, a rest and the finest of local food. Relax and reconnect.
