Welcome to Roses on Athlone
It is a petite vintage venue with a French flair and this creates a picture-perfect canvas to render the most stylish and elegant special celebration memories that promises to last a lifetime. The venue has a timeless elegance that reminds us of Coco Chanel’s quote “Fashion changes but style endures” – Coco Chanel.
The venue exudes warmth brought alive by accents of colour drawn from the surrounding landscape. Masterfully chosen antique furniture is seamlessly integrated with modern comforts. This old-world charm never ceases to capture your attention as eloquently placed roses draw you into a sense of wonderment.
The Roses on Athlone Estate welcome its guests with a rose garden and an abundance of lavender surrounded by neatly trimmed gardens. Guests often are surprised as what lays beyond our walls. A sanctuary of another place or time.
