Dining – Glencruitten House

Aithir Dining Room

Step inside The Aithir Dining Room – named for the Gaelic word meaning ‘air’ or ‘sky’ – and discover a space shaped by atmosphere, elegance, and quiet wonder. One side evokes the stillness of ancient forest, the other reflects the mystery of the sea. Together, they create a setting unlike any other – the perfect place to slow down, connect, and savour.
