Winton Castle Full Description
Winton Castle is a wedding venue steeped in history that blends the grandeur of a Castle with the intimacy of a family home. We fondly call this ‘intimacy on a grand scale’. Our romantic Scottish Renaissance castle is a hidden gem surrounded by mature gardens, deep in tranquil East Lothian countryside, just half an hour from Edinburgh city centre and the international airport. As an exclusive use events venue, the castle and its gardens are all yours for the duration of your own castle wedding. Unlike a hotel, this guarantees that your celebration is uninterrupted by other events. By limiting the number of weddings held here each year, we ensure that Winton Castle is still something of a well kept secret. It also ensures that you receive the very best attention from start to finish. We still have some limited availability in 2024, but are now mostly taking wedding bookings for 2025- 2026 Winton Castle Wedding Visits & Virtual Tours You can visit Winton in person, or arrange a guided virtual 3D-Tour over Zoom, while discussing your wedding plans. Call or email us to book your tour. Helping You Plan Your Wedding Here at Winton we are ready and waiting to help you start planning one of the best days of your life, whether you are looking for a fully bespoke wedding, or a tried and tested wedding package. We have low season rates that can save you at least £2,000 over January and February. Our team has more than 20 years of experience planning and hosting weddings and we would love yours to be our next one! By limiting the number of weddings held here each year, we ensure that Winton Castle is still something of a well-kept secret. It also ensures that you receive the very best, personal service from start to finish. Exceptional Eco Credentials Events here make the most of our wonderful nature, wildlife and countryside.

Such a beautiful wedding !
“Winton and Rae were SO AMAZING at accommodating and helping us incorporate personal touches across the whole weekend… “…Everyone loved our wedding, and think we might have convinced a few friends to consider Winton (we would love to come back for another wedding!!!). A few quotes we received: This was the ‘Best wedding I’ve ever been to including my own.’ ‘Such a beautiful wedding – it was the most grand setting yet felt very intimate and personal.’ (Sounds like the Winton tagline…..!)”

Just like a fairytale !
The Castle was stunning , "just like a fairytale", We had the run of the Castle for three whole days, each with a different and exciting vibe of its own. We couldn't have asked for a better back drop for our wedding. The ceremony was a magical and intimate experience and the wedding reception was nothing short of fantastic . Thank you again to you and your awesome team.
