From the minute I drove up the beautiful driveway, I knew Dundas Castle was the one. As soon as I stepped foot in the castle, there were tears! “When you know, you know”. It’s just stunning! As unfortunate as we were (due to several postponements), we feel fortunate enough to have been able to visit so many times, become friends with the staff, and now feel part of the furniture! It will always hold a special place in our hearts. We can’t wait to visit again on our anniversary. The wedding day was just unimaginable. More than I could have EVER dreamed of. I am honestly trying to find the words – I get emotional every time I think about it.

From the moment we first went to visit the castle in October 2018, we completely fell in love with it. I remember getting butterflies in my tummy as we drove up the driveway, through the colourful autumnal leaves and being welcomed into grand hallway. It was possibly the most beautiful castle we’d ever seen and we knew immediately nothing else could match up to it as a wedding venue. I’d always dreamed of getting married in a traditional Scottish castle, surrounded by beautiful grounds and grand interior. Dundas Castle had it all – and more.

The difference with Dundas Castle is not only the venue but the staff; they are professional, attentive and discreet. They are always there to help you but also just enough in the background to not impose on you or your event. In summary, the test of a great event is not only the venue but the staff and the big question "would you use us again"? With Dundas Castle, there would most definitely be a resounding YES!
Elaine Little, Events Coordinator, Scottish Widows

We can’t stop talking about our perfect experience and how well worth the wait for our wedding was. Truly, the entire Dundas staff gave us endless happy memories, and I know our guests enjoyed themselves just as much. Thank you again for all your hard work and endless kindness.
