A countryside venue with luxurious contemporary charm and a historic background..

The Ice House is one of those venues you're not quite sure what to expect of before you visit, but when you experience it you'll want to go back again and again. Based in Ballina, Co.Mayo, The Ice House is the perfect alternative countryside wedding venue - especially if you are looking for complete tranquillity without compromising on luxury and quality...

As the name suggests The Ice House is steeped in history and was originally an "ice house" used to store fishermen's catches from the River Moy during the 19th century. Now the building has been completely restored into a boutique venue and restaurant with just 32 bedrooms ensuring a personal and attentive stay - yet big enough you don't feel on top of any of your guests.

Based right on the River Moy, the Ice House has an abundance of glass walls for you to enjoy the tranquil views, and outdoor hot tubs if you really want to get into relaxation mode before or after your big day. An intimate wedding venue, The Ice House can comfortably accommodate up to 100 guests for receptions and civil ceremonies. In the restaurant you can enjoy a formal sit down meal with fresh locally sourced food, or for something a little more relaxed a buffet style meal or BBQ. The surroundings also provide amazing photo opportunities with nearby beaches and scenic views that real wedding couple Tiernan & Catriona took advantage of beautifully.
