This Camp for Grownups Combines Cooking and Survival Skills

"Tucked into a wooded clearing near Finnebrogue Lough about 21 miles outside Belfast, this multiuse outdoor site functions as an event venue, bushcraft classroom, campsite and wood-fired cooking lab built largely from found materials. Visitors pass Scandinavian glamp-style tipis to a shelter and open-sided tent centered on a huge fire pit and multiple rigged grills and a pallet-wood smokehouse, where a resident chef prepares intensely seasonal, coals-smoked dishes — from oak- and coffee-smoked beef and charcoal crackers to sourdough, wild-herb butter and wild-foraged teas. Founded and run by a bushcraft expert who sleeps on-site with his dog, the program teaches fire-starting, foraging, primitive smoking, sourdough breadmaking, leathercraft, utensil-carving and kids’ survival skills, and offers wild camping and yearly fire-cooked feasts (including a Midsummer Night Feast) alongside weddings and hands-on experiences that emphasize communal, low-stress dining and deep seasonal connection." - Maggie Hennessy

What a special day we spent at Finnebrogue Woods! We hosted 10 GoPro video and photo creators for an afternoon of exploring, foraging and fire making, and wrapped it up with the MOST delicious meal prepared for us in their outdoor kitchen. Every single person we encountered (and the dogs!) were so friendly and welcomed us to the property like we were family. We wished we could stay all day and into the night! We wrapped the day with a quick shop at the small market on site, picking up local chocolates, honey, dips and cheeses. It was the perfect day! Could not recommend more.

Finnebrogue woods really was the dream wedding venue. Andrea and the team were so helpful and couldn’t do enough for us! The venue is so gorgeous and it was easy to work with Andrea to co ordinate the other vendors and ensure everything ran smoothly on the day. It was extra special to get to go out onto the lake, it made for beautiful photos and some time to ourselves.

I attended a wedding and reception as a guest. The venue was absolutely beautiful, making it the perfect setting for such a beautiful day. Top Tip: Bug spray (Deet, etc.) was the solution to keeping the wasps and bees away. They seemed to enjoy the drinks as much as the guests!

We had our small wedding here last weekend and I can't get over how wonderful it was. We chose this venue because the first time we went to fodder we just loved it and would come the odd weekend. Andrea was my main point of contact and she couldn't have been easier to deal with and met me where I was at in the planning stages- helping me to arrange my timeline and making sure it was exactly what I wanted. the day couldn't have gone smoother and I put that down to the amazing team at finnebrogue. The staff couldn't have been better. Every one of them a total gem. The setting was perfect for us and even though we didn't get the good weather all day, there was always options and plan b's. Andrea knew there was something really specific I wanted to do and made sure it happened when the rain went off. The additional bridal tipi was wonderful as the bride for a place to take a breather. I was also able to go up the day before to set up and the team worked with me to have the tables sitting the way I wanted them as well. We had about 60 at ours but the place is so big and the team so flexible that a much bigger wedding would have worked too. Honestly cannot get over how class the weekend was. Guests remarked on the beautiful setting and the chilled atmosphere. If I could do it all over again I'd jump at the chance. Thank you Finnebrogue Woods team ❤️ Additional Suppliers: Flair & Flavour Catering Claire Shearer Humanist Celebrant Forevermomentsni

Great location, close to the Quoile river. Lovely walks - not wheelchair accessible. Wee shop is lovely, though a little pricy. The cafe is charming with a good selection of local food choices. I must bring my family here!

We were wedding videographers at this stunning venue, and I was truly impressed by the beautiful grounds and serene lake. This might just be my new favorite outdoor wedding location. The canopies and gazebos were of top quality, with no expense spared on the fittings and furnishings. The ambience was incredibly relaxing, and the food was both beautifully presented and delicious. All the staff were professional and cheerful in their work. I can't fault a single thing! It was a fantastic day.... Thank you all.

We got married here on 1st July 2025, and words cannot describe how perfect our day was. Our disco in the woods wedding was a dream! From booking to the day itself, Andrea and her team helped everything run so smoothly, they answered every query along the way and went above and beyond. Our day was so chilled - the weather was in our favour with the sun shining gloriously but I have no doubt if it wasn’t, that this amazing team would have still made it fantastic. If you’re looking for venues/thinking of Finnebrogue, go and visit. It’s magical!

Thanks very much to Rob & Joan for a gorgeous wildlife wander. As well as interesting stuff about wildlife we see every day, we were shown amazing stuff just under our feet. All in glorious autumn scenery. Finished off with an excellent lunch at Fodder. Bonus - we foraged enough mushrooms for the next day's lunch!
