Sligo’s Markree Castle re-opened in March as an exclusive wedding and event venue following a a12m renovation that lasted two years. Along with weddings, Markree will also offer conference, incentive and team building packages. The 17th century Gothic castle in Co Sligo joins Ballyseede Castle, Bellingham Castle and Cabra Castle in the Corscadden family’s hotel and venue portfolio of the ‘Romantic Castles of Ireland’. The Gothic beauty of the castle was reclaimed under the expert guidance of Niall Small Architects and interior architects Audrey Gaffney Associates. The property has operated as a country castle hotel and wedding venue for the last three decades.
