Testimonials

We got married here in August and we couldn't be happier with our choice! The food, the function room, the rooms, the chapel, absolutely every single detail was nothing short of beautiful and perfect! The staff and our amazing wedding coordinator really made our wedding a dream come true. Thank you a million times Emma, John and team!

We got married this year , We dealt with Emma and she is honestly the most amazing person so down to earth and attentive there was nothing that wasn’t a problem or that she didn’t accommodate us with! I think she done more planning than we did kept and us on track checking in constantly! She is just hands down one of the nicest people and truly wants you to have the best day . All the staff on the day were just amazing (and everytime we visited even the restaurant ) they are just the most welcoming and friendly people you feel at home from the minute you arrive . Our guest spoke so highly of the staff and the hotel and just all agreed it was truly magical. John came to all tables checking in on our guest , he went out of his way to speak with all tables which was so lovely . The attention to detail was nothing short of amazing the place looked exactly how I wished it would . If you are considering having your wedding at The Clanard I can honestly say it will be the best decision. We can’t thank them enough for helping us to have the wedding day of our dreams . They have an amazing team each and everyone of them!

We wouldn't change a thing! We had the best wedding day at the Clanard Court last month, with the help of Emma & John our day ran smoothly and there was absolutely no stress throughout the planning or on the morning of. The food was absolutely beautiful, a number of guests commented that it was the best wedding meal they had ever tasted! No request was too much and we would highly recommend anyone researching venues to give the Clanard Court a look! Thanks a million guys!
