Testimonials
Just a quite note to say thank you from myself and Leon for everything last Friday.
We had an absolute ball and the guests loved Ballykealey and especially the food served.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and everyone at Ballykealey.
Lesley & Leon
Every moment in Ballykealey exceeded our expectations, and our expectations were not low to start with! The quality of the service, food and attention to detail was perfect. We could not have asked for more or for better. Wesley, Bruno, Alison, and many more members of staff were spectacular. They were a credit to you all.
Angela, I think I was in contact with you more than I was Conor for the week before the wedding, you solved every little concern and niggle I had and we’re always a calm, comforting and professional presence. We appreciate everything you did, and we wouldn’t change a single thing. Thank you so somuch.
Sarah & Conor
