The Coulter Family

Project

Killymoon Castle

Killymoon Castle was rebuilt on the original site by renowned architect John Nash. It is an asymmetrical structure with both round and square towers and Regency Gothic interiors. After a turbulent history, John Coulter bought the castle and grounds in 1922 and it remains the home of the Coulter family to this day. The family have overseen many stages of the castle, from family home, to military base during WWII and now a highly regarded tea room and wedding venue. Over the years, the family have carried out many complex maintenance projects, such as the restoration of the original library and the rescue of the cupola of the double staircase after it sustained major damage in the Cookstown golf course bomb attack in 1992.
