Reception Rooms

The Courtyard Rooms, in the 1867 former Estate Offices, provide a brilliant combination of style and comfort to host a relaxed, private party after your wedding ceremony. This self-contained complex, set over two floors, offers a variety of facilities, including an upper Garden View Dining Room, seating up to 96 guests, and a ground floor Reception Hall, hosting up to 135 guests. Both areas are also suitable for wedding ceremonies and are a rainy day ‘Plan B’ for those hoping for an outdoor service.

Something distinctly different about Tullyveery is that you will have access to the venue on the day before your wedding, to supervise the setting up and to de-rig the following day. Giving you three days to put your stamp on our venue, enjoy your wedding/event and debrief. This added style and décor can be done yourself or using industry providers. We pride ourselves on working closely with many local suppliers and forming great relationships with them, so chances are we have worked with your chosen provider previously.

We are always happy to welcome new faces though, equally a team of your close family decorating is no problem either – we love to see a bit of creative flair transform our venue. We encourage our brides to make it their own, adding personal touches and style as the rooms are calm and neutral in their décor making the perfect ‘blank canvas’ for doing so.

For the afternoon, plan if you wish to enjoy a Garden Party in the Walled Garden or drinks reception in the courtyard, we encourage your guests to enjoy the grounds, the Oak Tree swing and let the children play on the front lawn. Lawn games are most welcome.

There are also a number of comfy sitting rooms where guests can mix and relax before and after dinner; the perfect setting for a really informal and private party for family and friends.

Outside in the courtyard we offer a heated carriage shed gazebo, and a cloister around the perimeter of the buildings should the weather not be on your side – providing a suitable smoking area or shade on those sunny days. Wall lamps and festoon lights overhead in the courtyard create the perfect relaxed atmosphere for you and your guests to sit and enjoy wood-fired brazier in the evening, perfect for s ’mores! We have even had some couples entertain their guests with their first dance under the stars making for some magical photography.

Beyond the Courtyard rooms the gardens make wonderful spots for your afternoon reception. You can find out more about the main garden areas on our Ceremonies page.

There are masses of car parking space and cars may be left overnight for collection the following day. The venue is wheelchair accessible also. As well as a mobile PA system for when you wish to have your speeches outdoors, there is also PA systems in both dining rooms.

We got married here in September 2020 and the venue itself is absolutely stunning, extremely well maintained with perfectly manicured gardens and great options to host your event in various different settings throughout the day. Charlie was fantastic to work with and every detail was covered with care and attention (even prior to organising an event during the pandemic). He was also great in working with us to adapt our wedding to suit the government guidelines which were imposed upon us and assured us that he would be flexible if we wished to change to a later date. We ended up planning a more intimate and casual wedding for our original date and are delighted with how our day turned out. Gwen was also fantastic at co-ordinating our whole day and always one step ahead to make our wedding go as seamless as possible. We can honestly say that Tullyveery is the reason we did not find this process stressful in the slightest and would highly recommend future couples to consider this beautiful family-owned venue!

We would like to say a massive thank you to Tullyveery for delivering such a fantastic wedding for us in August 2019. We have had nothing but compliments on the day. With all the wedding stress – dealing with suppliers, families, diets (!) and everything else – Tullyveery was definitely the element that was never any worry. From day 1 and meeting Colin we were immediately sure it was the right venue. It’s beautiful and so well maintained. Not even a cobweb to be found! Colin set up a fantastic venue, and he picked the perfect team to maintain and elevate it to an even higher level. Tullyveery to us was just the right size – perfect for a small-medium sized wedding. We had under 100 guests and the multiple spaces (walled garden, courtyard & dining hall) kept everyone together while still giving them plenty of space. It felt so intimate but spacious too. On every visit to Tullyveery we were greeted with big smiles from a friendly face – Colin, Heather, Gwen, Kim, Michael – who was always so willing to help us with any questions we had. No problem was unsolvable. Gwen in particular in the lead up was fantastic. She is so fun and friendly and lovely – and on the ball! On the day itself we couldn’t have felt more relaxed. Everything went perfectly. The guests felt so comfortable and happy in the walled garden, and even Charlie made a great call and pulled my husband and I back before the dining part of the evening, to allow us to have a little moment to ourselves while the guests moved towards the dining hall to be seated. Giving us that little break even for just a couple of minutes was lovely – thank you Charlie! I found the recommendations for suppliers from Colin very helpful. We chose Jane’s Kitchen for catering, who of course were excellent. Ronan from Balmoral was also brilliant. Although Tullyveery has many traits which make it really special – the walled garden, the courtyard in the evening with the lit firepit, the facilities – really what makes it are the staff. It felt extremely personal. In Tullyveery you are dealing with people who grew up there, who have been there for years, and who really care. The best decision we made for our day was choosing Tullyveery.
