Long before modern travel, these paths were already being walked, conversations shared and stories quietly unfolding. This photograph offers a rare glimpse into daily life at the house over 160 years ago, a reminder that while times change, the sense of welcome and place remains very much the same.

There is something utterly magical about Temple House when it is enveloped in snow. The whole estate feels quieter, softer and even more romantic, as if time slows down for a moment.

We love how the snow transforms the house and grounds into a true Winter fairytale, creating the most breathtaking backdrop for a gathering. If you are dreaming of a setting that feels timeless, elegant and beautifully atmospheric, this is one you will never stop falling in love with.

A little throwback to winter weddings at Temple House, where the season brings a romance all of its own. Think roaring fires, soft candlelight and that unmistakable sense of old-world elegance that feels even more magical in winter.

We loved being part of these unforgettable days, filled with warmth, intimacy and timeless beauty. If you are dreaming of your own winter wonderland wedding at Temple House, we would love to hear from you. Get in touch to start planning something truly special.

The Perceval family home since 1665, the present manor was redesigned in 1864 and enjoys the authentic and unpretentious country house atmosphere. More Country House than bed and breakfast or hotel Temple House offers luxury country house accommodation for up to 20, plus a self catering cottage that sleeps 8. It is wonderful place to stay on tour, for a short break, for a get-together for a wedding. You will find on-site boating, coarse fishing, bird watching, terraced gardens and miles of woodland walks. Within easy reach are beautiful beaches, eagles flying, archaeological sites, horse riding, trout fishing and four championship golf courses. Traditional music and dancing sessions are often held nearby. Temple House is an ideal stopover between the west and north and a great base for exploring Sligo, Leitrim, Fermanagh, Mayo or South Donegal along the Wild Atlantic Way.
