Celebrated our wedding on 28 March at Barony Castle, Peebles. The venue is set within gorgeous woodlands/fields and is a beautiful historical castle with an abundance of photo opportunities! Hannah, our coordinator, was great from the outset. She was very responsive to all my adhoc emails and nothing was ever too much trouble. She helped in providing suggestions for the day as well as making sure everything ran smoothly and to time. She allowed us to drop off wedding bits the week before our wedding day, and had neatly packaged everything up for us to take home the day after. I found all the staff to be lovely at the venue and heard only good things from my guests. The food was delicious and we loved that guests could choose their meals out of 2 possible options. The bar staff were really good on the wedding night, especially since people were ordering cocktails. We chose this venue based on the beautiful grounds that surround it and also the gorgeous ceremony room. The bridal suite is a perfect size for getting ready with your bridal party and there’s lots of natural light which makes for great photos. We’re so glad we chose this venue and would recommend to future bride & grooms!

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.

We could not have planned our wedding in 3.5 months without Hannah!! She was incredibly responsive, so kind, and always two steps ahead. Joe and Rashiv’s hospitality was also unmatched. Thank you to all the Barony staff for making our special day so wonderful.

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.

We have stayed at Barony Castle for overnight spa breaks for a number of years now and it soon became our favourite getaway. After our proposal in the grounds we knew Barony would be the perfect wedding venue. Hannah our wedding planner, and all the staff, are a real credit to Barony Castle. Hannah guided us every step of the way throughout the planning process and on the day itself. She ensured we had the perfect day and that everything ran smoothly. From our previous stays, we already knew how amazing the food and drinks were, but as part of our package we were invited up to sample all four courses of our wedding meal, including drinks, and we were blown away by the quality. All of our guests commented on how much they enjoyed their meals and on the food and drinks in general as most of our guests stayed for two nights. As for the actual venue itself, the grounds are stunning. Even after all these years we are still finding lovely new areas when we go out for our walks. The Elibank and Meldons function rooms are both beautiful and when set up on the day, looked absolutely stunning! The guest bedrooms are cosy, comfortable and always clean. We have stayed in most of the suites now which are all amazing, the Dean View and Eddleston suites in particular are gorgeous. We enjoyed an extra nights stay after our wedding in the Dean View which we would highly recommend. As part of our package, we were provided with and recommended all of our wedding suppliers. Again, these were all fantastic, easy to deal with, super friendly and professional in their work. Special shout outs to Brian Cassidy (Photographer) and his lovely wife Irene, Lynsey (Florist, Blooming Bunch), Beth Ritchie (Makeup Artist), Emily French (Hairdresser). Not only were they all amazing at their jobs, but were the kindest, friendliest people who made our day extra special. All in all, we simply cannot recommend Barony Castle highly enough. We had the most amazing wedding day and wish we could do it all again! We have already booked a party there for our 1st wedding anniversary and look forward to seeing the Barony team again soon.

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.”

A perfect wedding at Barony Castle beyond all our expectations. We recently had our wedding at Barony Castle Hotel near Eddleston, and we can honestly say it was the most magical, seamless and memorable day of our lives. From the moment we arrived to the final farewell, everything was handled with warmth, professionalism and genuine care. When looking for our perfect wedding venue we wanted a place that felt intimate and relaxed, and Barony delivered on both. The main attraction for us was the Exclusive Use Package which not only gave us exclusive use of the venue but also 75 bedrooms. This turned our Wedding Day into a weekend away with our closest family and friends. Hannah, The Wedding Co-ordinator at Barony, was amazing from the minute we met with her. She listened to what we wanted for our day and made us feel that we were the only wedding she was dealing with. Her responses were always prompt and nothing seemed too much effort. All the packages available at Barony include more than other venues we had looked at, this made the process so much easier as all we had to worry about was our choices and Hannah dealt with the rest. We did have some additional suppliers but again, Hannah worked with them to ensure our set up was perfect on the day. On our Wedding Day, every single member of the team went above and beyond to make us, and our guests feel welcome and cared for. Their attention to detail was impeccable from the beautifully set up ceremony space to the flawless co-ordination of the reception, every interaction with staff was marked with kindness and a sincere desire to help. So many of our guests commented on how friendly and attentive everyone was. We would also like to make a special thank you to the Chef. The food on the day was impeccable. The choice available for the Wedding Breakfast was vast and every care was given to allergies and dietary requirements. Barony Castle gave us the fairytale wedding we dreamed of, and we are endlessly grateful to Hannah and the rest of the incredible staff who made it all possible. If you are looking for a venue that offers not only a stunning setting but also truly exceptional service, look no further. Erin & Kieran King.

My husband and I planned on have a large wedding with almost 100 people. As we started planning this wedding, we started hating the idea more and more of how much time, and money, and effort went into planning this. We already had out yearly trip planned to Scotland, and I jokingly asked if he would be ok with an elopement style wedding at a castle in the UK when we went. The idea grew more and more on us. So, we reached out to our immediate family and they were ok with the idea. Of all the places we looked at this had the best packages for the price. We reached out and they sent over some many photos and fell in love instantly. But it wasn’t jus the pricing and scenery we fell in love with. The wedding planner, Hannah, was so sweet and really made you feel like you were a member of their tiny town that everyone knows everyone and invites you over for dinner. We booked the wedding late December 2024 and she helped plan everything for the wedding in mid March 2025. All we did was send over our pintrest inspo and she did everything from the alter, to the reception set up, the cake, the dinner menu (all we did was pick), the first look with dad and private vow reading, managing vendors. She even asked questions we didnt even think of that really added to the overall experience of our wedding. The hotel, land, and town were just breath taking. There was not one complaint. There is nothing bad that we could say about this place. The rooms were clean and cozy. The bar and restaurant were delicious, loved cooking my steak on the lava stone. Even getting to and from Edinburg was easy. There is a busy that you can get on in the city and take it all the way through the countryside that drops you off at their driveway. And not to mention they have a farm along their driveway with alpacas. The town had a cute little tavern that the group frequented. The grounds have a lot of history. The wedding alter outside and the tree covered aisle were beautiful. Really trusted the process on this and highly recommend a small Scotish countryside wedding here.
