Edinburgh Castle

Venue Review of Edinburgh Castle

Perched above the Scottish capital, Edinburgh Castle is Scotland’s most famous landmark – a prestigious backdrop for corporate events. The approach down the Royal Mile is as grand as the spaces inside the castle itself. The 100-capacity Jacobite Room, which has stunning views of the city, is a lovely setting for gala dinners or Scottish banquets, while the 19th-century Gatehouse Suite can accommodate smaller functions during the day and at night, spilling out onto a private terrace overlooking the Royal Mile. The Queen Anne Building at the heart of the castle is a flexible space for meeting or dining. Larger groups of up to 800 can hire the whole castle for a reception, offering guests exclusive access to the Great Hall and Royal Apartments. Evening event bookers can arrange for a private view of the Scottish Crown Jewels and the Stone of Destiny. Stirling Castle, 40 miles up the Forth, is also available for events.
