About the Grainstore

A hidden gem in East Cork, combining rustic charm with flexible spaces for every occasion.

Discover the story behind Ballymaloe Grainstore, a versatile venue nestled on the grounds of Ballymaloe House Hotel. Founded by Rory, son of Myrtle & Ivan Allen, this space blends his love for farming with his passion for music. With son Darren managing the farm, Rory dedicated his time to music, hosting vibrant music weeks in Ballymaloe's drawing room. Inspired by these gatherings, he envisioned a dedicated venue for weddings, venues for festivals, intimate concerts, corporate events, and special occasions. ‍

A hidden gem where old-world charm meets modern convenience, making it perfect for both intimate gatherings and grand celebrations.
