Weddings

What better possible location can you imagine than a medieval castle on a rocky promontory beside the sea while looking out to the Scottish Islands?

As far as wedding venues go, Portencross Castle is hard to beat.

For amazing wedding photographs, you can use the Castle surroundings, the Great Hall and, of course, the viewing platform on the roof. You can also use the Castle surroundings just for photographs for a donation to help us maintain the Castle.

For details, please use the Contact Us link above and we will send you more information.

Private Events

Individuals, couples, families and groups of friends and acquaintances have made use of the historic and romantic atmosphere of the Castle to hold private events. Just savour the surroundings while celebrating at the same time.

These private events have included renewal of vows, significant birthdays, memorial celebrations and even funerals.

If you are interested, do contact us for details of hiring our space.

Filming and photoshoots

Portencross Castle and its surrounding area are ideal locations for filming. The Castle has been used by a number of producers because of its atmosphere and amazing visual impact. The surrounds are also a great backdrop for photoshoots.

The area was used as a location for Outlaw King which was about Robert the Bruce. Other buildings and features in the area have been used for favourites such as Taggart.

Live Music

Corporate Events

No matter what industry or service you are in, we sometimes need a break from work for training or team building. Portencross Castle and its surroundings are ideal as a setting for your event.

Rather than the usual corporate hotel, conference suite or meeting room, go off-grid and enjoy the different setting, ambiance and challenge. Just get out your comfort zone for a bit.
