Kilmore Country House Full Description
Your big day is all about you, and that’s why Kilmore Country House is exclusively yours for the day of your wedding. All elements of your celebrations, including the ‘getting ready’ portion of proceedings, the ceremony, the reception and even the overnight stay, can take place onsite, so that you and your guests can remain at one venue from the beginning of the day until the end – taking away the stress of wedding travel and making the most of your time together. Engaged couples can opt to have a wedding ceremony indoors in our twinkling ballroom, with its ornate fixings, distinctive mouldings and luxurious drapes, or in one of our unique outdoor ceremony spaces. Choose from our beautiful outdoor amphitheatre stood on the edge of Glenariff and overlooking the valley below or our quaint riverside terrace affording soothing sounds of a gentle babbling brook. From generous wedding banquets to the complimentary breakfast you and your guests will enjoy following your wedding celebrations, and everything in between, every effort is made to ensure a sumptuous dining experience. Guests can retreat to the cosy corners of the country house’s living quarters and burrow down in a chesterfield armchair in front of a roaring fire, complete with a celebratory tipple from the venue’s onsite bar, creating a warm and welcoming environment at every turn, and making wedding memories for you and your guests that are sure to last.

The Perfect Venue
Its hard to know where to start. You arrive at the venue and the views are like nothing I realised existed in Northern Ireland. Oliver the wedding manager worked with us on the day we wanted, not what the venue wanted. The food was the best I have ever tasted at a wedding and was more similar to a top class restaurant. Despite poor weather, it made no difference and our guests were totally blown away. The beautiful country feel of this venue made the day and this was coupled with the most attentive staff we could of had. 5 star

A day we’ll never forget!
What can we say, Oliver and his team at Kilmore Country House provided the best day for our reception! My wife’s family live in Cushendall and we got married in St Mary’s Church, and everyone loved the drive between the venues, who wouldn’t? It’s hard to put down in words how beautiful Kilmore House is, the building, the marquee, the rooms, the view!!! And as we said earlier, the team made everything so smooth and joyous! We can’t thank them enough, from making sure we were all warm, to putting out the lawn games when it wasn’t raining, and letting the father of the bridge sing a song at the end of the speeches, no stone left unturned! They were also very generous and let us come to the venue a couple of days to help set-up, and this was an unbelievable chance for us to make everything perfect! 1 million % would recommend this venue, not even just for a wedding, because it is really great! Sadly our photos are too big to upload!

100/10 for location, staff, food! The most amazing venue
Fell in love with Kilmore from our first viewing. The scenic backdrop and family run ethos were massive selling points for us. Oliver the manager couldn’t have done more to help organising and on the day itself. We got a rainy day but it didn’t ruin anything. Have had nothing but brilliant reports from guest on food, drinks prices and friendly staff. Having been to 10 weddings in 2023 at different venues can honestly say they are one of the best in Northern Ireland 🤍

Can we do it again please? What a dream!
We had the wedding here of our dreams last Saturday. Kilmore is set in the most scenic place, the beautiful Glens of Antrim, we were not only blessed with the scenes but the kindness of all Kilmore's staff. In particular, Oliver, Kilmore’s wedding coordinator. Oliver was amazing from our initial meeting to saying goodbye on the night of the wedding. The staff on the day were all so kind and fantastic at their jobs, a shout out to Hugh who accommodated my elderly grandparents and provided breakfast for my family. We wish to thank Kilmore for everything.

Thank You
Oliver, Hugh and all the team at Kilmore! Thank you so much for making our Wedding day everything we could ever have wanted including the sunshine!! All the staff went above & beyond and helped us (even when we were still sorting things on the morning)! All our guests have commented on the views, how efficient the day went, the food & the Guinness! Couldn't have asked for a better venue & team. Thank you Elaine & Dom xx

Kilmore House- a hidden gem in the glens
I could not imagine a more perfect venue than Kilmore House. It is the most beautiful venue with amazing views over the Queen of the Glens. It is the one and only venue we viewed and we were sold straight away. Oliver made every part of planning our wedding a breeze- nothing was a problem and he was quick to respond to any questions or queries. All of the staff were fantastic. If you want a unique setting, amazing food and lovely people you don’t need to look anywhere else. I just wish we could do it all over again!
