WELCOME TO LISSANOURE CASTLE

We would like to welcome you to Lissanoure Castle and share with you its unique setting. It is part of a thriving estate in which our family, along with many others, live and work. Since 1994, the Castle has been available to hire for weddings, functions and other private events. If you are looking for a very special and private place to host such an event, look no further, and please do come and see us. Viewings are by appointment only.
