Located in the idyllic setting of the Kiltonga Nature reserve Kiltonga Hall has recently been…read moreadvertised as the perfect place to get married or have a baby naming ceremony by Ards Borough Council. The building is a 200 hundred year old stone structure is small and intimate that is a venue registered to host weddings the venue itself seats around 60 people. It can be booked as a traditional church or a registry office. Kiltonga is close to Newtownards and within driving distance form Bangor. With great accommodation in the area including Bed and Breakfasts and Hotels Kiltonga would not only provide a picture perfect day but also a convenient day for all your guests. The facilities in Kiltonga Hall include disabled access, toilet facilities and electrical points. The cost to hire Kiltonga Hall is £380 with a £50 deposit to be paid at least 6 months in advance. In my opinion this is a bargain as the grounds and hall are sure to make your special day a perfect day.

When one of my best friends told me he was going to get married in a castle in Ireland, I was…read moreimmediately pumped for the trip. And Bellingham Castle was the chosen venue and boy it exceeded all expectations. I even got to stay here for one night and they had such a pleasant hospitality. We ended up getting the "Kevin" room, which had a balcony view of the garden and patches of greenery that stretched as far as the eye could see. The place was really peaceful and my New York State of mind was completely gone, although temporarily. I really felt like a little kid when I went on to explore the different rooms in the castle. The furnishings and designs are things you would expect to see in films. My favorite rooms were probably the Bottlery (wine room) and The Buttery (the kitchen). Their castle dog, Ri, was super adorable and roamed around as if he owns the place. Some castles can feel intimidating but this place felt very intimate and homey. If only I could live there forever....

Moored in the Lagan is The Belfast Barge, quiet and unassuming it doesn't blow its own trumpet but…read moreit really should. There are 3 elements to the Belfast Barge which was news to me when I visited last week. Much more than just a boat The Belfast Barge is a successful restaurant, a museum and an events venue. Next week they are hosting a comedy night in their events venue, which will be very cosy. The museum is full of maritime facts and history depicting Northern Irekand's ship building and boating heritage. The museum also hosts temporary exhibitions. The restaurant is fully licensed and acts as a café bar during the day and at night live music and cabaret dominate the barge, the boat will literally be rocking!

Had the foresight to book dinner reservations given there is not much around there. The dinner dishes were a bit bland. Odd that they did not have the Red Malt Vinegar. They provide distilled white vinegar for the fish and chips. Server said it was "distilled malt vinegar." Service was very good in the restaurant and hotel otherwise.

We had our tour finale dinner there, which was ordered off a pre-set menu, and it was very good. The next morning, we had a traditional Irish Breakfast buffet, and it was one of the better ones we had during our 13 days in Ireland. Service was also very good for both dinner and breakfast. Not sure what restaurants are around in Ballygally, but eating at the hotel turned out to be a convenient and good option.

What can I say about this place? I had my wedding here and…read moreit was the best venue we could have possibly chosen. I know that wedding venues need to be personal to the couple in question, and everyone's needs are different, but Larchfield was fantastic as a venue for us. The quaint walled gardens and the incredibly romantic private lake and forests where you can have your pictures taken, as well as the rustic, charming barn was just perfect for us. The barn is a little plain by daylight, but if you get talented event designers in, the place can really become a fairly land. They have three main rooms in the barn, one large function room, a bar area and a dance floor area, as well as an attached marquee. We were lucky with the weather, and had our cocktails on the lawn - it made things really special. The staff and owners of Larchfield were incredibly accommodating and helpful and made our day totally perfect. I think anyone who is looking somewhere a little different for their wedding should look here. I want to go back there and do it all again! P.S - The venue is really not appropriate for young children or toddlers.
