About

BORTHWICK CASTLE; SCOTLAND’S MOST EXCLUSIVE USE WEDDING VENUE – where history, luxury and kinship meet. Nestled in one of the most beautiful rural settings, 30 minutes from Edinburgh, majestic Borthwick Castle provides the perfect setting for creating a magical wedding experience.

As you enter the ancient arched gateway of Borthwick Castle, you become part of a hidden world of luxury and regal style. Being at the centre of Scottish life for 600 years, Borthwick Castle has encountered many of the key personalities in British history and culture, from Mary Queen of Scots and Oliver Cromwell to Sir Walter Scott and J. M. Turner.

Today Borthwick Castle is the locus of unforgettable experiences, steeped in authentic style, understated luxury and unparalleled intimacy in service, providing its treasured guests with a Scottish castle experience like no other. It is now the most stunning of castle wedding venues, complete with twelve-bed chambers and room for 80 guests, available for exclusive use.

Couples love to create exceptional experiences for themselves and their friends and family by getting married at Borthwick – a hallowed place that is mythic, inviting, memorable and photogenic all at once. The twelve uniquely designed bedchambers each have painstakingly designed bespoke bathrooms full of charm, authenticity and quality.

Our Gatehouse is designated as the bridal suite, with its marble bath and romantic private setting. With private hire comes Borthwick Castle’s dedicated team who will provide the warmest welcome, discreet professional service and those exquisite personal touches.

There are no set rules or menus at Borthwick Castle, because you can choose whatever is most to your delight: a sensory whisky tasting experience, traditional games on the lawn, a fabulous feast in the great hall, delightful walks in the surrounding countryside, golf at some of Scotland’s top courses or a tailor-made tour of Edinburgh’s historic landmarks.

The Borthwick team is here to bring to life your very own vision for how your stay in the Castle should be.   We sincerely, and with great care and attention, welcome you to join us within these amazing walls.
