Such a glorious place. The views that day were a bit misty due to earlier rain but still incredible. The hike up didn't take long but was a bit of a climb with some steep grades. The site itself is fascinating and I want to learn more about it: what are the lines radiating out from Cairn T representing? Is that a stone circle in the next field over (sadly not accessible)? Would love to return and explore this site again.

What an incredible venue for our wedding. We wanted somewhere our guests could stay with us and where we could do a "day 2" as well. This location gave us the relaxed vibe we were hoping for. It also allowed us to make Loughcrew our home for the weekend which just felt incredible. The second day was just as enjoyable as the wedding, we arranged for a pizza van and coffee van for our guests and just enjoyed the stunning countryside with our guests. Emily and her staff were incredibly accommodating and available for anything we needed throughout the weekend. We would highly highly recommend this venue, especially if you're looking for somewhere to spend the whole weekend with your guests in an amazing location.
