Our finger food packages are ideal for a wide range of occasions, including christenings, naming ceremonies, birthdays, anniversaries, retirements, engagements, family reunions, baby showers, communion and confirmation celebrations, graduation parties and memorial gatherings.

The Rossmore Suite is perfect for private family gatherings in a comfortable and welcoming setting.

  • Room Hire: €200
