In this serene solitude, you and your loved ones can celebrate a shining new chapter surrounded by a friendly atmosphere, fine food, and breathtaking views for miles.

This family-owned property boasts a beautiful array of indoor and outdoor event spaces alongside boutique guest lodges.

An amazing wedding venue

We came to The Cruin for an open day and instantly fell in love.
From the start Rebecca, David and the team were fantastic and very amenable to all our endless questions! Any request was listened to and ultimately delivered brilliantly on the day. Nothing was too much trouble.
Even though it rained nearly all day, the team made sure everything was to our vision and ran smoothly. All our guests have said what a stunning venue it is and how amazing the food was.
We’re so glad we picked The Cruin and we can’t thank you all enough for the most beautiful wedding day. It was everything we wanted and more.
