Stayed in one of the cottages, great space with everything you could ask for in a relaxing break. Breakfast in the conservatory was a delight. Plenty on offer brought to the table. Must remember to specify how soft i like my eggs next time as the poached eggs were overdone, but if thats my only negative, don’t let it deter you from an amazing experience. There was a takeaway menu in the room, which I may use next time, but we ate in Fratelli’s as fancied an evening out. Plenty of food choice.

From the moment we arrived at Galgorm, we knew we were in for something special—but the team still managed to exceed every expectation we had for our wedding day. The grounds are simply stunning, with beautiful backdrops at every turn for photos. Our guests were blown away by the setting, and so many told us it was one of the most beautiful venues they’d ever attended a wedding in. The staff were outstanding from start to finish. Every detail was handled with such care and professionalism, allowing us to truly relax and enjoy our day. The coordinators made the planning process seamless, and on the day itself, everything ran so smoothly we didn’t have to worry about a single thing. The food was exceptional—many guests commented that it was the best meal they’ve ever had at a wedding. Service was warm and attentive, with staff going above and beyond to make sure everyone felt looked after. Our wedding at Galgorm was everything we dreamed of and more. We’ll treasure the memories forever and can’t thank the team enough for giving us the most magical day. If you’re considering Galgorm for your wedding, don’t hesitate—it’s perfection.

We recently stayed to celebrate both my daughter's exam results. I have stayed many times but it was my daughters first time at Galgorm. We stayed in a 2 bed cottage which was fabulous! It had absolutely everything needed for a memorable stay and staff had very kindly left a card and sweet treats to mark the occasion! This was so very much appreciated and made my girls feel very special. The spa was very relaxing and not as busy as it had been during previous stays. We enjoyed cocktails, mocktails and lunch at elements. All of which were wonderful. We had dinner in fratelli's. This was my first time dining in this restaurant. Food was beautiful however the service was disappointing. Service started off very promising but as the evening went on it was very slow. Breakfast was of the usual high standard with plenty of choice! Overall we had a wonderful stay and as I'm a regular guest, I will of course return!

We were 9 people staying in the Oaks Residence and cannot get over how amazing it was. We took our own food to cook and we had every appliance we could have needed. You get your own hot tub with and sauna, the area around the house is very quiet and private. To get to the spa we called reception and were sent a little bus to and from the spa which was brilliant, the staff driving these were great fun. Any issues we had (needed a new robe at one stage) was no problem getting a one. One of the shower head was broken and a tap was slightly broken but didn’t dampen our experience. The Oaks Residence was expensive but split between us all was absolutely 10000% worth it. The spa is absolutely outstanding, it’s mostly outside and is so beautiful and open. Cannot wait to get back to the Galgorm in general

The BEST mini break A night stay for 2 in a 1 bed cottage Check in - the lovely Rachel was warm, welcoming,polite, friendly, super efficient and extremely helpful as I’d booked for the wrong day but she had it sorted in a few minutes Accommodation- our cottage was wonderful it had everything we needed and more, a mix of traditional with a touch of luxury modern contemporary. Facilities included hob, microwave, fridge, kettle, toaster, coffee machine, TV and the complimentary mini bar was a nice touch. Seating area outside overlooking the forest yet secluded from other residents. Giant bed was really comfortable we both had an excellent nights sleep and woke to the birds singing. Buffet breakfast was 10/10 one of the best we’ve had with lots of options. We had dinner in Mckinneys another 10/10, followed by a really chilled evening in the cottage; film on Netflix in our pj’s, bottle of wine and snacks on the sofa. High light of the stay is without question the SPECTACULAR Spa facilities, never seen anything like it before and couldn’t imagine how amazing they are. I counted at least 6 heated jacuzzis by the edge of the river near the woods, several separate steam rooms and saunas outside in the middle of nature. Heated stone marble beds, water beds, himilyan salt rooms, hot tubs, cold plunge pool, 3 swimming pools the list is endless and everything is top of the range, highest spec. We were completely blown away, every member of staff gave service with a smile. Only thing we would change is the no. of nights we stayed wish it was more and we can’t wait to return. Thank you Galgorm well done on a top stay with top class service and facilities ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Just back from another unforgettable stay at Galgorm. We stayed for a treat for my husband’s birthday and I made the hotel aware of this when booking. When I got our itinerary email for our stay one of our spa treatments was booked for the morning of our arrival at 10am. I contacted the hotel and not only had no problem changing both our treatments to the following morning at 10am but myself and my husband had a double treatment room and could have our treatment together. We always book a Shepard’s Hut and were happy to have the same hut as our previous stay with great access to the thermal village. The thermal village what can I say, one of the best spas I have been to in Ireland by far, excellent facilities, clean modern and staff are so friendly and professional. We had dinner booked also bit of a wait for our table as it was so busy but once seated staff again so good can’t beat it. Great idea to book a late check out if you can, it gave us a few hours in the spa the morning before we left and it wasn’t busy at all. Over all great stay and can’t wait to come back again soon.

We stayed here on Sunday night, we were in shepherds hut 4 and it was beautiful, spotlessly clean and had everything you need, felt luxurious, bed was soooo comfy, grounds were immaculate. We had dinner in Gillies included in our stay and the food was delicious, it was busy but at no point did it affect the amazing service. One little niggle was when we got to the shepherds hut at about 430 our bags hadn't come down and we waited 45mins for them after ringing twice. The only negative was we didn't really get to appreciate the thermal village, the place was absolutely rammed and every pool, sauna, steam room, hot tub was constantly busy, we had a riverside experience booked which at least allowed us a tub for an hour, when booking we picked the Sunday as we kind of thought it would have been a little quieter but that was far from the case. This is the reason for the 3 stars as the thermal village is what makes up 50% of your stay. Everything else was spot on!
