If you’re looking for an impressive full venue hire in Scotland, Innes House is a historic, countryside mansion with capacity for 38 overnight guests, three private dining rooms and nearby activities and outdoor pursuits.
Today, Innes House is owned and managed by the Tennant family, but its site dates back to the 1600s with roots reaching even further than that. Originally, this awe-inspiring land, close to the Cairngorm National Park, was owned by Flemish born Berowald in 1160, with royal connections, too. Throughout the years, it has seen many iterations and renovations, now boasting five thousand surrounded acres and 20 stunning bedrooms, with space for up to 38 guests, as well as two cottages, a gatehouse and a beautiful farmhouse. So, if you’re picturing the event of a lifetime - perhaps a milestone birthday, wedding, or even corporate away day, Innes House has the space to host you and your gang well.
In terms of spaces at your disposal, the main house enjoys a Drawing Room, Old Library, Whisky Room and Billiards Room, which can be used for day-to-night events and happenings. Spread across three floors, there’s loads to see and for dining specifically, you can organise private chefs or self-catered meals in the East Ballroom or Red Private Dining Room, with the option to try a whisky tasting in the Whisky Library after dinner.
Or, perhaps you’re interested in hosting a yoga retreat or creative workshop at Innes House? In the summer, the lawns are ideal for outdoor sports and practices, while inside, the lofty drawing room with its high ceilings and natural light, is a serene space to try painting, reading, knitting and more. The same goes for corporate getaways; imagine leading a workshop in the gardens, doing a presentation around a banquet table and then heading off with a local guide to try foraging, star gazing, history tours or even, a murder mystery - which the team can help you organise!
