A private family home above Borris village, held by the same family for centuries, with the Blackstairs Mountains behind it.

About Borris House

A private house above the village

Borris House sits above Borris village in south Carlow, inside a 650-acre walled estate of parkland and native woodland. It isn't a hotel and it isn't run as one: weddings here are private, exclusive-use, and arranged directly with the house rather than through a standard events team.

Inside, the Long Gallery and the Ballroom Wing give a wedding room to breathe, with family portraits, antique furniture and open fires doing a lot of the work a marquee would otherwise have to do. There's a private chapel beside the house for couples who want the ceremony on site.

The rooms

Where weddings happen at Borris House

Long Gallery. The grand room for a wedding breakfast or reception, full of family history rather than hotel neutrality.

Ballroom Wing. A more relaxed, rustic space for dancing and the later part of the night.

Private chapel. A small chapel beside the house, for couples who want to marry on the grounds.

Filming at Borris House

How I'd approach it

I haven't filmed a wedding at Borris House recently, so I won't oversell familiarity I don't have. What I can tell you is how I work everywhere: compact equipment, no staging, no directing, and a habit of staying out of the way so the day looks like it actually happened rather than a production. If a venue like this has a scale or a setting that suits documentary filming, I'd love the chance to film it.

  • Private, exclusive-use house: one wedding at a time, arranged directly with the estate
  • Set within a 650-acre walled estate of parkland and woodland
  • Long Gallery and Ballroom Wing for the reception, plus a private chapel on site
  • Viewings are by appointment only, so give yourself time to plan a visit
  • In the heart of Borris village, with the Blackstairs Mountains as a backdrop
