Perfect for pre or post-wedding day plans and wedding photography. Located just 2 miles from the city center and en route to Connemara, it’s in the most idyllic location for peace and calm, with a side of convenience for all. The Glenlo Abbey Hotel is located upon a stunning 138-acre immaculately groomed estate, making every inch of its grounds a picturesque scene for fairy-tale-like wedding photography.
From the shores of Irelands largest lake, Lough Corrib, upon its banks, the Gardens, and gazebo, to its unique train carriages and 18th Century Abbey, there is a photo opportunity at every single turn. Within the Corrib Room, 18th Century Abbey, or the surrounding mature gardens, you can host a legal civil ceremony or enjoy drinks and mingle. The Glenlo Abbey also offers luxurious on-site accommodation, a 9-hole golf course, driving range, falconry, fishing, horse-riding, and archery to entertain and impress your guests.
