Updates And Information

Dalhousie Castle

A rich tapestry of arts and culture and recent extensive renovation has created 29 beautiful bedrooms. These are decorated in Scottish design fabrics such as tweed, tartan and twill. Period furniture, rugs and carpets combine to create a richly warm and luxurious feel that’s deeply relaxing and truly welcoming. The hotel also boasts 15 historically themed bedrooms.

Although individually designed, all our rooms, including the standard rooms, have every comfort the modern guest could wish for. Whether you are recovering after a hard day of outdoor pursuits, or just want a little time to unwind in your own company, you are sure to feel very much at home. A 100 year old Lodge in the grounds provides an additional 7 bedrooms for those who want added seclusion in a relaxed country house atmosphere.

Special Offers Scottish Castle Weddings and Honeymoons

A Scottish Castle is the most idyllic wedding venue to make your special day absolutely perfect, with options that include your wedding ceremony in our chapel or a civil wedding ceremony in one of our fabulous function rooms. A wedding at Dalhousie Castle also means less to worry about: the ceremony, the reception and accommodation in the most majestic surroundings are all under one roof and the most romantically dramatic photo-opportunities.

Guests can enjoy the delights of nearby Edinburgh and the accessibility of Edinburgh Airport to make the whole wedding a special and memorable wedding occasion. A wedding at Dalhousie Castle is, after all, not just for the bride and groom on their wedding day but also for all those family and friends in attendance with a magnificent medieval Scottish castle as a back drop! “Truly, a wedding not to be forgotten”.

Steeped in turbulent history, the romance of Dalhousie Castle is all about the memories of the day and the splendour of Scotland. Indeed, it’s difficult to imagine a more romantic setting for a wedding ceremony or civil partnership ceremony, an occasion that will cast a spell on both the bride and groom and their guests, during the ceremony itself, afterwards at the reception and later at the celebration. Celebration which can take place in the same medieval castle in which Edward I or Mary Queen of Scots once stayed.
