Had pod 5+6 booked for a wedding, 200€ each for 1 night. While it was a cute idea to have pods for…read morethe wedding, they weren't worth 200€ a night. The metal beds squeaked at the slightest movement, and pods were so close together that we could head people from other pods just talking. The trip switch in pod 5 tripped when anything other than the 2 small heaters were pluged in. The kitchen toilets and shower areas were fine for what they were, clean and tidy with microwave and dishwashe, nothing to write home about. Some great views of the land around Ballybeg house, it would be lovely to sit on the porch of the pod with a tea/coffee in the morning, but the views are blocked with the trees. The dinner for the wedding was fantastic, the flavours and portion sizes were amazing. The staff were excellent, light-hearted, and friendly and always someone nearby if you needed anything throughout the day. The grounds are so picturesque that you'd never be short of a good location to snap a picture. I'd probably give a higher star rating if we'd have stayed in a different accommodation option or if the pods were priced better for what they are.

Little chapel on the grounds, main house for drinks and nibbles while the bridal party photos where being taken to then to be led to a breathtaking, enchanting marquee with full bar, kitchen, dancefloor and bathroom facilities. Extremely clever set up. Food, service and attention to detail could not me faulted. On the third day...as u do. We were invited back to celebrate with the happy newlyweds in the shebeen. The chapel had been transformed into an amazing table set up with stage for a band and dance floor...with another fully serviced bar and bathroom facility! Loved this place so much. I only wish it was closer to county down ;)

What an amazing time in Ashton House!

Great location and food, tranquillity, perfect for a short weekend away from the city centre! Highly recommended ;)
