We hate to mention the C-word in early November… but Christmas is creeping up! 🎄✨

If you are planning a Christmas get-together for your team, why not do something a little different this year?

A festive lunch, a relaxed evening together, or an overnight escape in the Wicklow Mountains. Think delicious food made with local produce, fresh forest air, a hot tub under the stars and plenty of time to unwind.

The best part? The Wicklow Escape is exclusively yours. No crowds, no busy restaurants, just your team enjoying some well-deserved time together.

We can even help with coach transport to make organising your celebration that little bit easier.

🎄 We still have some festive dates available!

Get in touch to plan your team's Christmas celebration.

Who would have thought that buying an old youth hostel 10 years ago would turn into such an adventure?

What a journey it has been! From those early days of bringing the place to life to welcoming so many wonderful people through our doors. Countless celebrations, weddings, retreats, family gatherings and memories made along the way.

We are incredibly grateful to everyone who has been part of these 10 years, and especially to our wonderful team who make The Wicklow Escape what it is today.

To mark this milestone, we would also love to give something back.

Over the quieter winter months, we would love to welcome organisations supporting women and families affected by domestic violence, coercive control and other difficult circumstances. Whether it is a group of women who need time away together or the dedicated people supporting them, we would love to help make it possible.

We have some availability over the next four months and would be happy to offer significantly reduced rates for exclusive, self-catering stays.

If you know an organisation that could benefit, please get in touch. 💚

Golden leaves, crisp air, cosy evenings and the beautiful Wicklow countryside in all its autumn colour. 🍂

A magical season to gather, celebrate and escape.

A little glimpse into Ella & Conor’s magical forest ceremony.

Tucked beneath the trees, surrounded by ferns, moss and woodland, their ceremony felt like something straight from a fairytale.

We love seeing couples make this little corner of the forest completely their own, and this one had the most beautiful, mystical feel. 🌿✨

A brilliant day at The Wicklow Escape with the team from HMV Engineering ☀️

Wonderful people, beautiful weather and the perfect setting for a day away from the office.

A relaxed day outdoors, plenty of good food and lots of laughs. 🌿

Thanks to the HMV Engineering team for spending the day with us — we loved having you!

There’s something special about summer when you don't have anywhere to be.

The breeze through the trees, coffee enjoyed a little slower, evenings that stretch on, and the feeling of being completely surrounded by nature.

At Wicklow Escape, every season has its magic, but summer invites you to pause, breathe deeply, and savour the simple moments.

Earlier this week, we had the pleasure of setting up for a beautiful wedding at The Wicklow Escape.

Simone and Sean exchanged their vows in the forest, with the gentle sounds of a harpist creating the most magical atmosphere. Afterwards, guests enjoyed ch*****ne on the mountain deck, taking in the stunning views before sitting down to a delicious three-course meal.

As the sun set on a warm, balmy summer's evening, the celebrations continued in the pavilion – the perfect ending to a truly unforgettable day.

Congratulations to the happy couple. Wishing you both a lifetime of happiness. ✨️💕
