GETTING THERE

Waterford is about 2 hours from Dublin airport and Shannon airport. For more information about getting to Waterford City click here. If you arrive to the city by bus or train we recommend using a Taxi, Uber, or FreeNow(Uber like app in Ireland) to get to the castle - cars will use the ferry to cross the river and drop you off at the Castle to check in! The Ferry runs every 15 minutes from 7am - 11pm and can be called as needed after hours. (More info regarding travel are in the Travel Tabs!)

ABOUT THE STAY

Waterford Castle is a resort located on a small island just off Waterford City, Ireland. The Island can accommodate everyone in the wedding between the castle itself and the Waterford Island Self-Catering Lodges. Please book a lodge for your stay on the island as it will be difficult to get off the island late at night after the wedding! We highly recommend booking for both nights on June 14 and June 15 (with check out on June 16th). The wedding will take place on June 15th. Wedding party and immediate family will be staying in the castle.

ABOUT THE LODGES

They are 3 bedroom lodges, each featuring ensuite contemporary bathrooms per bedroom, a living room with TV, kitchen (fridge, oven, stovetop, microwave, and hot water kettle), complimentary WI-FI, and laundry facilities. Lodge guests breakfast options include: make their own breakfast in their lodge, request breakfast in the castle or Clubhouse on the Golf greens (both for a fee), or travel into Waterford for breakfast.

Reserve a room for yourself or with a group (each lodge sleeps up to 6 people) and be a 3 minute walk away from the castle!
