    Dum dum de dum.... Ok so myself and the other half have decided instead to get married in Cork. We are looking to have 60 people and no afters. apparently this is a tiny wedding and too small for the bigger hotels.

    Anyone have any good suggestions???

    Have a look in the Innishannon House hotel. It is about 20 minutes out the N71 and left at the town of Innishannon.

    There used to be a small guesthouse beside broookfield accommodation off college road. I cant remember the name of it but it is a stones throw from the ucc campus, which is an excellent venue to get married.

    The Rectory in Glandore might be an option.

    Was just about to suggest this. It's a very nice spot and the right size for you.

    http://www.rectory.ie/ should have plenty of info for you think 75 is the mid sized crowd for them but they dont have accomadation for that you just have to look down the road to the Marine hotel.

    Nice church the far side of Glandore as well or if you wanted a tighter squeeze into the church you could go for Gugan barra (spelling) which really is a dream spot to get married, in my view, as long as you are having a very small number at the church.

    You could try Inhcadonney Island in Cork. Beautiful venue but a little out the way. It is close to clonakilty town.

    Inchadonney hotel is lovely alright and the food is good. But jesus its pricey, no corkage allowed and their cheap wines are bloody expensive. We booked the Dunmore house over it and they are pretty much in the same spot with Dunmore futher up the head and looks down on Inchadonney. But both these hotels might be a bit on the big side for the OP's numbers. But they are close to some lovely churchs. The church in Ross is lovely but the last priest kinda left it slip it is a huge pitty. I think they have a new PP who is starting to do it up a bit. Then there are the two churchs in Rathbarry/Ardfield and there is one near Clon (near some agri college).

    The Celtic Ross would be another option. Nice hotel with a lovely reception area with the tree in the middle. Pitty the function hall is surrounded by the car park :(.

    Of course if you waited a while CastleFreeke is being done up and if they do private functions in there is would be one hell of a location for a wedding. They have a chapel some where on the grounds as well.

    http://www.corkandross.org/ will give you a good idea on the churchs around the area.
