Ghan House is a unique venue for weddings and other celebrations which require exclusive use of one of our dining rooms or utilising the whole house.
If you are after an alternative to a 'hotel' function, then Ghan House certainly offers that relaxed informal atmosphere only an Irish country house can give. It has beautiful landscaped gardens on the edge of a medieval Heritage town of Carlingford.
The menus reflect our passion for food with taste and imagination. We can cater up to 75 guests for dining and up to 120 for a fork buffet and for as few as 12 guests for a private party.

‘A
perfect space’ ‘Just
wanted to write and thank you and your staff for the excellent service
provided on our wedding day, celebrated at Ghan House on the 11th
March. The professional attitude of the staff and attention to detail
made our wedding reception a thoroughly enjoyable and memorable
experience for all of our guests. The food was excellent and your
establishment is much deserving of the excellent reviews attributed
to it. "The
star of County Louth, Paul Carroll and a crack team do the good
thing in Ghan House, satisfying every customer, and doing it every
time" "Open
log fires, the aroma of home cooking, antiques and family portraits,
four poster beds and gourmet candle-lit dinner with fine wines -
this intimate country house is so charming and loved by its regular
visitors " "And
there's even more to it than comfortable accommodation and the delicious
meals you will enjoy for dinner or breakfast, as the Carrolls also
run a cookery school on the premises. 'Paul
Carroll has made Ghan House into both the star of County Louth and
'Everything
fits here: the food matches the house, the service and Recommended 'Best of the Best' Georgina Campbell's finest places to stay in Ireland 2006. "
Carlingford mussel broth with glass noodles; pheasant and wild mushroom
casserole with celeriac mash; stuffed fillet of pork with a Stilton
and Apricot butter; rib-eye steak with mash and onion rings; cherry
panacotta with poached cherries. Everything fits here: the food
matches the house, the service and hospitality chime resonantly,
and Ghan House is a destination that is consummately logical and
consummately enjoyable." "
This final flourish brought the experience close to a perfect Irish
meal." "
Best Country House Restaurant in Leinster 2004." "
...close to the shore include the superb Ghan House, an eighteenth
century building with an exceptionally good restaurant." ."Carlingford
Oyster tempura with sweet chilli dipping sauce was exquisitely light
and exotic. The Head Chef uses herbs and vegetables from the garden
and you can taste it. The garden mint crusted Cooley lamb was generous
and rich in flavour and the chargrilled tuna was wonderfully fresh,
imaginably served with courgette and carrot spaghetti." "
The kitchen really shone, the main courses and both our dishes showed
an admirable attention to detail." |
