    Most amazing wedding day

    We had the absolute best experience at Barony Castle for our wedding! From start to finish, the entire team made our big day so special. The staff were all so lovely, the food was delicious, and the guys genuinely went out of their way to help us with anything we needed throughout the day.

    A massive thank you to Hannah, our wedding coordinator, who helped us through the entire planning process. She was always on hand to answer our endless questions and provided such amazing guidance every step of the way.

    On the actual wedding day, Sarah Moffat was a complete godsend! She made sure the event ran as smoothly as possible, allowing us to just relax and enjoy every single moment. We couldn't have asked for a better venue or team to bring our dream day to life. Highly recommend! Can’t wait to visit on our one year anniversary 🥹

    Beautiful wedding day

    We decided to get married at the barony castle as soon as we laid eyes on it. Immediately fell in love with the venue (so did hubby). We met Hannah the wedding coordinator and that was it we had booked the date. Hannah was amazing she was helpful, full of ideas that could help budget wise and also supportive. Nothing was too much trouble and that goes for all the staff. They were kind funny and accommodating. Everything ran smoothly and couldn’t fault it. If you’re thinking of getting married here I definitely would recommend it.

    The Wedding Of Our Dreams

    We have had the most wonderful experience getting married at Barony Castle. We first visited for a wedding open day and we were blown away by how beautiful the Elibank Suite is. Barony had everything we were looking for; stunning ceremony space, the right amount of privacy for our day, beautiful grounds for pictures, lots of space for our guests to stay.
    Hannah (wedding co-ordinator) was exceptional. She was an invaluable part of our wedding planning with her guidance, communication, organisation and pre-wedding meetings. She co-ordinated the day so perfectly for us, everything ran so smoothly and we appreciate her lead in this.
    The food is stunning. The staff are amazing. We were so looked after from our first visit and every time we have been.

    There is so much included in the wedding packages on offer, we were so appreciative about how transparent they were and nothing was too much to ask. We found that other venues almost tripped you up with extras that you would have to pay but Barony were so clear and we feel we got so much for our money. They have lots of recommended suppliers, Beautifully covered provided stunning decor for our ceremony and had lots more on offer.

    We feel that they truly wanted us to have the day we dreamed of and delivered it seamlessly.
    We had a perfect wedding day and Barony Castle will forever have such a special place in our hearts.

    Dear Louise and Craig,
    Thank you so much for your amazing review, it was such a great day for me as well. The joy on your faces throughout your entire day is the goal! I will be sure to pass this along to the staff and let them know that their hard work is noticed. I look forward to having you back for your anniversary next year and catching up with you! Hannah X

    Excellent wedding venue

    Barony Castle is an absolutely stunning venue for any wedding. We had full use of the hotel & loved every second. The grounds are stunning for pictures & there's plenty of space for over night guests. Hannah, our wedding planner, made sure our day went nearly perfect. The food was excellent too! My husband & I were both very happy with our wedding at Barony. It's lovely when we return and the staff remember us too! Looking forward to celebrating our 1st anniversary at Barony too.

    A wedding of a lifetime

    We could not have chosen a better place to marry than the Barony Castle Hotel. From the moment we walked through the door to quietly observe the venue, Hannah and the dedicated hotel staff welcomed us with open arms, sharing our vision of creating a magical day not only for us, but for each and every one of our guests. The Barony Castle Hotel offered an enchanting location at an affordable cost, along with a comprehensive package where every detail was taken care of, from the flowers and music to the exquisite photos and an elegant wedding cake. All we had to do was relax and enjoy. Over a year of planning from two far away countries, and on the day itself, Hannah and the highly professional staff graciously accommodated every single one of our requests, tailoring our wishes into a seamless event that our guests called "a wedding of a lifetime."

    Barony Castle Hotel's reply:

    Dear Zoe and Vidar, thank you for taking the time to give such a wonderful review. We all love having you here, the staff still talk about how wonderful you and your guests were. I am just so glad that our zoom calls helped to translate the beautiful wedding day vision that you both created. Hannah X

    A lovely September Wedding.

    We had a wonderful wedding at the Barony. Hannah and the staff were so friendly and willing to help with any request no matter how small. We had the baronial package and it made the whole planning aspect a lot easier as you had most of the main things included. Very much looking forward to going back for our 1 year anniversary. x

    Beautiful Venue

    We had a truly lovely day at our wedding. Everything ran smoothly overall, and the team were incredibly helpful throughout the process. Our wedding coordinator, Hannah, in particular was fantastic — always on hand to answer questions and make sure things came together just as we’d hoped.

    The food was simply outstanding — by far the best meal we’ve ever had at a wedding, and so many of our guests commented on how delicious it was. Even though the weather didn’t fully cooperate (storm Floris), the venue offered plenty of beautiful indoor spots for photos, which turned out wonderfully.

    The suites were lovely, and having access to both the Eddleston and adjoining Darnhall in the morning was absolutely perfect for getting ready and relaxing before the ceremony.

    We’d also like to give a special mention to two members of staff who truly went above and beyond — Noah and Jack. Their professionalism, friendliness, and attention to detail were exceptional and really stood out to us and our guests.

    Thank you to the entire team for helping make our wedding day so memorable

    Dear Rachel and Andrew,

    Thank you so much for taking the time to give such a wonderful review, I really appreciate it. I am just so glad you are happy with your gorgeous photos regardless of the weather conditions! Maybe you can get dressed up again and we can see you next year for round 2? I will be sure to pass on your comments to the appropriate staff members who will be absolutely chuffed! Hannah X

    Wonderful wedding at Barony Castle!

    Our wedding day was very well executed, especially the meal. We had a few meetings with wedding coordinator, Hannah in the lead up to the big day which gave us plenty of opportunities to ask questions and get organised. She was also very reachable over the phone and email and keen to accommodate our requests where possible.

    We got married on the front lawn which was beautiful and we had a brilliant day. Thanks for everything!

    Barony Castle Hotel's reply:

    Dear Aimee and Charlie, Thank you so much for giving a review! I am so glad that you had a brilliant day. After the run around the weather gave us all, I am just so thankful that we managed to get you outside to the front lawn. It really did look stunning. Thank you, I always try my best to make all of your plans go well. I look forward to having you back for your anniversary! Hannah X

    Our Magical Wedding at Barony Castle

    Barony Castle didn't disappoint. We attended one of the wedding fares and I just knew this was the place I was going to take my vows.
    The pathway down to the alter with elm trees intertwined to make a tunnel was stunning and the sunlight bursting through the gaps made it very magical. Two years planning our intimate wedding and the help we got from Hannah and the team were amazing. The few days we were there for the wedding ALL of the staff were amazing and nothing was too much to do for you. All my guests and ourselves appreciate how friendly and helpful they were. The wedding day was perfect and we probably had the hottest day in Scotland ever. I just can't thank them all enough for making our day extra special. Everything ran smoothly and everyone really had the best time. I would highly recommend Barony Castle. Just wish I could do it all again

    Barony Castle Hotel's reply:

    Dear Janine,
    Thank you so so much for taking the time to give a review. I am just so thankful that you managed to get down to the altar and it was such a gorgeous day for you both. Look forward to seeing you again in the future!
