Super in every way!

We can’t say enough good things about our experience with the Lord Bagenal Inn. Sue and Niall were so helpful and nothing was too much to ask. The food and service on the day was better than we could have imagined. Having our wedding in the Lord Bagenal really made it a stress free and enjoyable experience from start to finish.

Amazing wedding venue!

We recently got married in The Lord Bagenal Inn and couldn't recommend it highly enough. James, Sue and Niall are so easy to deal with and not one of our many requests were an issue. We truly enjoyed our day, from the amazing drinks reception, the beautiful hotel and the outstanding food, it was all just way above our expectations. The hotel went above and beyond, nothing was too much hassle for them especially Niall who was very helpful and ensured our whole day ran smoothly. We just wish we could do it all again. Thanks again to the whole team in the Lord Bagenal.

The Most Perfect Experience

The Lord Bagenal is hands down one of the best venues for weddings. Sue was so helpful throughout the whole entire planning of the day from the time we arrived to the end of the night every little detail was taken into consideration.
The day of the wedding was run by Niall who made everything run so smoothly! He was so accommodating and couldn’t have done enough to make sure our day was perfect!
All the staff in The Bagenal were also amazing and so friendly! No request was an issue to them and the top table was looked after so well by Connie and her team!
The food was beautiful and it is great value for money, our guests have not stopped talking about how lovely the food was and how amazing The Bagenal was also!
If your looking for a venue that is set in a beautiful, area, has fabulous food at great value, friendly staff you cannot go wrong with The Lord Bagenal. They just do weddings fantastically!!!

Best day ever

A brilliant day had by all, thanks in large part to the staff at the hotel who couldn't do enough for us. From the moment we chose The Lord Bagenal to be our wedding venue, to the following day when we left to start the journey as husband and wife, the service has been exceptional. We are really appreciative of Sue's help & guidance planning the big day and Niall's efforts on the day making sure everything went to plan & our guests were well looked after. We highly recommend The Lord Bagenal as a wedding venue.

Amazing from start to finish !!!

Well what can we say about the lord bagnal! There is not enough words we could say that gives the bagnal the recognition they deserve. Sue our wedding coordinator is just professional from start to finish from the moment we met her we where just so excited about our journey nothing was ever to much trouble for her she catered to every question or suggestion we had and was always very quick at getting back to us and we hope the bagnal realises what a massive asset she is to the place and deserves one heck of a bonus! Nial was just superb as well what a guy he is nothing was ever to much on the day he got what was needed done in a quick and professional manner along with a sense of fun and warmth he brings as well and the rest of the staff where all amazing with a few guests unfamiliar with the bagnal the staff showed the place at its finest from the bar service to the food to the rooms and much much more would I recommend absolutely and more! And if I could do it’s all again we completely would

Amazing venue

From day 1 of planning we couldn't have asked for more from sue and niall . They went above and beyond to make sure we had every single detail of what we wanted to make our day complete . Sue was always on the other end of an email to answer our questions or give advice no matter what day or time . Every member of staff were truly amazing . We would highly highly recommend the Lord bagnal for a wedding

Amazing from start ro finish

We met sue in July 2023 she was so friendly & welcoming. There and then we decided the lord bagenal was for us. Every email I sent to sue throughout the 13 months of planning was answered very promptly. Sue and Niall met us 2 days before the wedding and couldn't be more helpful with planning the layout of the room. On the day I arrived they both met me and put my mind at ease, the place looked so beautiful and our ceremony ran so smoothly. The reception ran so smoothly also and the staff and the service was exceptional not to mention the mouth watering food. All in all I rate this hotel a 5 start experience for our wedding day

Wedding day 6 July 2024

'Just a perfect day' words from the Lou Reed song. And this is what our wedding day was in The Lord Bagenal, 6 July 2024. Our party of 60 people was hosted in the top bar. The drinks service was second to none and as the guests mingled to a background of jazz and a hurling semi final no one had to sneak off to view it elsewhere. And as hurling enthusiasts ourselves we were very happy that our guests were all there.

And now on to the 'backbone' of any festivity, we had the food. Delicious platters of Canapés - mouth watering chicken satay skewers, vegetarian spring rolls with a dip, smoked salmon with brown bread, rare roast Irish sirloin on a garlic ciabatta, and goats cheese tartlets. Platter after delicious platter arrived out and dispelled any thoughts of hungry guests!

The kids were also wonderfully looked after with traditional hand made chicken goujons, cocktail sausages, and sandwiches. The staff worked seamlessly and the service was exceptional. Nothing was a problem. Our bespoke wedding cake was served at desert and as the early afternoon headed towards evening and the jazz wound down we were so happy with such a perfect day. We would highly recommend The Lord Bagenal as a wedding venue.

Great wedding venue

Great team at Lord Bagenal. Very accommodating. Food is fantastic, so many people complimented it. Lovely fresh flowers in lobby and Marina room. Small hotel so ensure your guests book rooms quickly. Hotel is excellent at providing list of other accommodation options to guests if no rooms available.

Excellent!

We are so delighted we had our wedding in the Lord Bagenal which is situated on a beautiful setting by the banks of the River Barrow. The professionalism, kindness and attention to detail of Sue, Niall and all the team was top notch and we couldn’t have been happier with how everything went. We particularly loved the spacious sit-down area on arrival for our guests and also the option to sit outside by the hotel’s riverside area which on the day gave a Mediterranean feel. Our guests are also still commenting on how good the food was from start to finish. We would highly recommend other couples to choose the Lord Bagenal for their wedding!
