We host civil ceremonies, and our three licensed rooms can cater for any number of guests from 10 to 170.

This magnificent room is the perfect setting for a wedding; it also allows you to make a spectacular entrance since you can come in through the original main entrance to the Castle. Hexagonal RoomWalk along the red carpet, up the stone staircase and enter this special room. It has two working fireplaces and a vaulted stone ceiling. At the apex of the ceiling you'll see a carved stone with an inscription of love. LibraryThis intimate room is the Castle's original library and is surrounded by tall, imposing windows. ChapelBuilt in 1851 and set inside the fortified walls of the Castle, the Chapel is the perfect place for your wedding blessing.
