Amazing resort

On Sunday 28th October 2018 I married my best friend at this amazing resort.
From the moment we walked in to Forbes of Kingennie Country Resort we knew this was the place we wanted to make our commitment to each other.
The events team made everything easy and listened with intent as we spoke about our ideas and dreams for our speacial day, absolutely nothing was too much trouble, the staff before and on the day were attentive and amazing, we could not have asked for anything else.
Thank you to Claire and her team. thank you to Bruce for guiding us through the whole ceremony and meal, thank you to the staff who served us all that day/night you will always hold a special place in our hearts

Absolutely perfect location for our wedding!

My husband(woohoo) and I had the most perfect day. The staff were delightful and so helpful. They really made the whole thing seamless. I would recommend Forbes to anyone whether it’s for a short stay or a wedding. Even just a meal! Absolutely fantastic, so many of our guests said it had been the best wedding they had been to.

Perfect Venue

Forbes of Kingennie have weddings down to a fine art. We didn't have t worry about anything on the day and everything went seamlessly. The staff were so friendly and we had a beautiful warm day to enjoy the grounds. There was a lovely mix of indoor and outdoor spaces to suit us.
