The Perfect Day
Exclusively for you Lochinch Castle with its fairy tale turrets and towers is the perfect venue for a perfect day. Private home of the Earl and Countess of Stair, the Castle sits in a secluded corner of Galloway in South West Scotland and yet is easily accessible being only a short distance from Stranraer. Its extensive grounds offer an unrivalled choice of contrasting wedding locations, a retreat from everyday life where couples can truly relax and enjoy the most memorable and romantic of weddings. Whether you prefer a small private religious or civil ceremony with a limited number of guests or a celebration with 200 friends, we offer an unrivalled choice of fabulous interior and external locations to create the wedding day of your dreams. Lochinch Castle is famously surrounded by one of the most splendid and most beautiful gardens in Scotland. From wherever one looks, the views from the Castle and surrounding terraces over 75 acres of landscaped grounds are simply stunning. The gardens, ‘Castle Kennedy Gardens,’ as they are known more widely, positively abound with spectacular flowering plants and exotic trees that frame a marvellous variety of spellbinding vistas – fabulous for photographs. This landscape is also peppered with delightful features; little bridges, sweeping lawns and not least, the intimate Walled Garden with its colourful borders which nestles under the romantic ruins of ancient Castle Kennedy, adding a distinctive twist to the unique charm of the location.
