   We attended a wedding at Dundas Castle and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We were incredibly lucky with the weather; clear blue skies that made the grounds look even more breathtaking. The castle itself is beautiful, with an older section that adds a real sense of history and character. We stayed in the Daphne room in the courtyard, which was charming, comfortable. A highlight was meeting the friendly black and white llama wandering near the lawns. His buddy is slightly less friendly! From start to finish, everything about Dundas Castle felt elegant and special. I would highly recommend.

   We had the best wedding day we possible could have at Dundas Castle in April 2025. From not long after we got engaged, we knew the venue was for us. The venue itself is gorgeous, and we loved that our ceremony, drinks reception and evening reception could all be held in different parts of the castle/grounds, making the day flow really nicely for our guests. There is so much history surrounding the castle and it's the perfect fairytale wedding venue. We just wanted to say the biggest thank you ever to you guys! We had the best day of our lives on Saturday and we absolutely couldn’t have done it without you. Our day ran so smoothly, there were no hiccups and that's all thanks to incredible team led by Sinead who went above and beyond. It made the day so much more enjoyable for all of us knowing that everyone was taken care of.We always felt included but never bothered in the decision making on the day! I LOVED that! All of our guests commented on how helpful the staff were and how it runs like a well-oiled machine. Offering a room for our friend who is breast feeding was such a lovely touch and much appreciated. It was the little touches we loved like our room being cleaned before our private moment, our family photos and guest book being so neatly displayed and moved down to the pavilion, or our stationery being so neatly packed up for us leaving with absolutely nothing for us to do. The accommodation is stunning and I felt like a proper princess that night. So thank you! Jill was absolutely amazing in her responses to emails, organisation, keeping us updated and being a familiar friendly face. The whole team are just fantastic. We would highly recommend Dundas Castle as a venue to all of our friends - for us it cannot be matched!

   Finding the right wedding venue can be so daunting but Dundas and their staff are very experienced and efficient. The venue itself also does not need anything extra as it is stunning! We got lucky with the weather in the end but even if it continued to rain, it was still an amazing day. You can see the value for money in the way they manage big events. It was a day to remember and would highly recommend any bride and groom to book the castle for their wedding. The location is also amazingly close to Edinburgh and the airport. Thank you to all the staff on the day!

   As a wedding photographer, I have had the privilege of shooting at many stunning venues, but Dundas Castle truly stands out as one of the most unique and beautiful locations I have ever worked at. The castle itself is absolutely breathtaking, with its historic architecture and stunning grounds. It provides the perfect backdrop for any wedding, with plenty of beautiful locations for photos both indoors and out. What really sets Dundas Castle apart, however, is the level of care and attention to detail that the staff provides. From the moment I arrived, I was impressed with how well-organized and professional everything was. The wedding coordinator Morven and other staff are friendly, accommodating, and always went above and beyond to make sure that the wedding party and guests were comfortable and well-cared for. As a photographer, I appreciated the flexibility that Dundas Castle offered in terms of photo locations and timing. There were plenty of stunning areas both indoors and outdoors to take photos, and the staff was always willing to work with me to ensure that I had enough time and space to capture the perfect shots. Overall, I would highly recommend Dundas Castle to any couple looking for a truly unique and unforgettable wedding experience. The castle itself is stunning, the staff is professional and accommodating, and the location provides endless possibilities for beautiful photos.

   Nice house (for somebody)Not exactly 'welcoming'. Very sterile golf course surronds a coal-owner's wealth-statement.

   Beautiful exclusive venue. It has 17 beautiful and comrortable bedrooms. Great for small incentive groups or as venue for gala dinner, day activities or meetings for group up to 250 pax. Each room is different. Public spaces are really beautiful and give that real castle feeling. Amazing staff nad very nice owner. Room photos are from Buttercup room.

   I was there for my friend's wedding, that friend being Scottish wanted his wedding to be in his home country of Scotland and in a castle. The castle staff are extremely friendly and helpful. the chefs there a flipping amazing and made one of the best meals I have ever had in my entire life. The castle also has lovely glamps nearby for the guests to stay.
