"This is to thank you, Derek, Ann Marie, Honora, Chef, and all the team at Tulfarris for making Jenny and James' wedding celebrations over three days so memorable. They are both are elated at how it all went, as are Peter and I. The compliments from our guests are legion, so very many of them saying it was the best wedding they had ever attended.
Peter remarked this morning how you all made us feel as though we were the only wedding you were concerned with - then we saw the two following over the weekend! I worked in the hotel industry myself, albeit many years ago, and fully realise the amount of hard work which goes into making such an undertaking run so smoothly - despite, apparently, our best efforts to derail the timetable on the night. Everything was perfection; and we are very pleased, too, that the venue had the benefit of Mary O'Gara's beautiful flowers on the veranda and entrance to the ballroom over the weekend.
Tulfarris' reputation is justifiably spreading far and wide, as I said to Derek, so your combined efforts are not in vain. It meant a great deal to this family to have our celebrations so close to home. We felt a sense of 'belonging', and it made us proud to be able to entertain our family and friends at such a venue. The golfers among us were delighted with the course, and they and everyone else with the setting, the hospitality, the food, their rooms - everything. Hotels may be as elegant, as starred, and as comfortable as they please, but without an unfailingly pleasant and caring staff, as at Tulfarris, they really don't amount to much.
We thank you for your attention to every detail over the past almost seven months, for your patience in dealing with our myriad arrangements, and particularly for your constant good humour. It made dealing with it all so easy for us, and it is more appreciated than Peter and I can say."

Niamh and James - Wedding Reception, May 2011
"We stayed over a 3 night period from Monday 4th - Thursday 7th May. We enjoyed our stay immensely, and we will not hesitate to recommend the hotel to friends and family. The quality of the accommodation, food and service was extremely high, as was the friendliness and helpfulness of all the staff who deserve a special mention. In particular, Paul, Jackie & Scott - these are the staff we had most contact with. We hope to be back again in the summer when hopefully the weather is better."

"After brilliantly hosting our wedding on the 12th March 2011, we want to thank the hotel staff and wedding team at Tulfarris for their hard work, professionalism in making our special day even better. Your service level, from first arrival to final departure, was warm and faultless!
Food was absolutely delicious and timely. Our complements to the chef (from all our guests).

Larry & Ash - Wedding, March 2011
"I would like to thank Lillian and the team for making our wedding at Tulfarris a truly magical experience. We genuinely felt that the team wanted to ensure that we had everything we needed to enjoy every minute of the day. The manor house, courtyard, reception venue and menus offer something a little bit different for those looking for a unique wedding. All our guests were as delighted with the venue as much as we were. I would highly recommend choosing Tulfarris for your wedding. "
Andrea & Ray - Wedding Celebration, March 2010
"We had a excellent time getting married thanks very much to you Derek, Kathryn, Sue and chef William and all the staff at Tulfarris, you made the day even more special."
