Lyrath Estate

A beautiful old country house on the road into Kilkenny. It's been extended to a large hotel while retaining the period rooms and features. There are large grounds to the side of the old house and a large pond behind the new part of the hotel.

Outside, there are lots of opportunities in the garden for a variety of shots. The large trees can give some shade on very sunny days. There's some nice painted benches and a lovely old stone staris leading up to the hotel.

 

Inside there's even more  - a huge old staircase, the light-filled foyer and the old reception rooms with large windows which can also be used for the ceremony.
