The trees, the topiary, the numerous statues, the magnificent views, the holy well, the great lawns around the castle combine to provide a secluded country atmosphere a mere 15 minutes drive from Dundee airport and one hour from Edinburgh and Glasgow. From intimate occasions to huge celebrations, Fingask is the place for your event.

Wedding FacilitiesBack to top

Civil Ceremony and Wedding Reception

We have a number of venues for your party. We have our own pavilion that can fit up to 350 people eating and dancing on the Bowling Green Lawn. The pavilion has been designed to be divided into modules so that a party for 60 people or less is not simply isolated at the end of a giant hall but has a generously sized module to itself. If you fancy a seriously big party we can open up the entire pavilion and erect a second marquee on the adjacent Ossian Lawn to feed and dance another 250 people.

The ancient part of the castle is licensed for receptions and entertainments. The saloon on the first floor was built for parties, with its sprung floor, its double open fireplaces, its mirror lined walls and its coffered ceiling has room for 5 eightsomes. Below this is the large dining room, where 60 people enjoy a sit down dinner and next door the intimate library where the ancient volumes of the Fingask library can be examined. Or you can spill out into the fountain courtyard and watch the sun going down or coming up (!) over the Tay and the topiary.
