Introduction

Guthrie Castle, a fairytale 15th Century privately owned estate, is within a short distance from all the major towns in Angus sitting almost equally distant from Arbroath, Forfar, Montrose and Brechin – just 30 minutes north of Dundee and equal distance between Edinburgh and Aberdeen. This romantic venue is especially perfect for weddings or private celebrations. Whilst we have hosted many intimate, small weddings, occasionally with only the Bride and Groom, we have also had celebrations with up to as many as 300 guests.  We can provide overnight accommodation for up to 30; local hotels within 15 minutes cater for additional guests.  Privacy is assured through exclusive booking and rates are surprisingly competitive.  A special ambience is captured in the period furniture, paintings and antiques throughout each room of the castle. 

Many couples plan to have their service outside in our stunning walled garden; alternatively we have our own delightful chapel or we have also used some of the main public rooms for small civil weddings.  Guthrie village church sits right outside our eastern gate.  Whilst our web site www.guthriecastle.com goes a long way to conveying the splendour of the estate, the castle must really be visited to be fully appreciated.  We are pleased to have received glowing testimonials from couples who rave about the stunning setting and friendly, efficient staff; and many of the guys mention how they enjoyed playing our private 9-hole golf course whilst the ladies where busy getting themselves pampered and prepared in our special “ladies sitting room”. 

Our purpose built function pavilion is the icing on the cake!

Bridal Testimonials

“When we first saw Guthrie Castle we knew straight away this was the wedding venue that would make our day so perfect. When the day came we were not disappointed, it exceeded our expectations from the moment we arrived we felt as if it was our own home. This was down to the professional service from all the staff who were always there when needed but left us all to enjoy the days that we stayed. Everyone was warm and welcoming from the moment we stepped through the door, thank you all for making our wedding so special and stress free.(Especially Fiona & Maeghan).”
Andy & Yvonne

"I proposed to Sarah while we were held over in Tenerife; stranded on holiday because of the volcanic ash cloud grounding all commercial aircraft. When we returned she said I had to plan the wedding and she would “turn up with the dress”. We looked at a range of possibilities but because of various complications on both sides I finally suggested we elope. Sarah agreed on one condition: it could be small but it had to be special. The Guthrie Castle “Just for two” wedding package was very special. Everything during our two-day stay exceeded our expectations: the chauffeur-driven collection from the airport; the warmth of the welcome when we arrived; the Castle’s stunning interiors and exteriors; the quality of the service; the performance of the piper; the assistance and friendliness of the Guthrie Castle team. Of course once I had shown the Castle’s internet site to Sarah she was too excited not to be involved in the planning! And that planning was made so much easier by the package we were offered and the information the Castle sent to us such as the list of recommended photographers, beauticians, hairdressers and florists. We arranged everything by e-mail and telephone. Sarah turned up with her dress, I turned up with my suit and we enjoyed one of the best days of our lives so far. We are so pleased we chose Guthrie Castle as our wedding venue and are grateful to Maeghan, Fiona, Mark, Angus, Steven and Valerie for making our day very special. Best wishes and much success in the future."
Paul & Sarah
