Looking for a dramatic location?
Look no further than the magnificent Culzean Castle. Situated on a clifftop and looking out towards the Isle of Arran, this couldn’t be a more perfect place.
The Armoury flaunts a spectacular space decorated in the Castle’s world famous collection of Flintoff pistols and swords. Nearby is the versatile Georgian Kitchen. This space is perfect for ceilidhs, dances and drinks receptions. You know what they say, you will always find us in the kitchen at parties!
The Castle boasts another unique feature, The Eisenhower Hotel. The former President of the United States was approached with an offer of residency for the specially created guest apartment on the top floor of the castle. He stayed here on several occasions with friends and family.
The accommodation consists of six double bedrooms, a drawing room and a dining room, all of which can be accessed through a beautiful original 1920s elevator. Rooms can be hired individually or on an exclusive basis.
In the grounds, marquees can be erected for hosting a larger event, with a stunning backdrop of the Castle. For a smaller, more intimate event, look no further than the picturesque Orangery in the Culzean Gardens. Once used to supply exotic food and flowers, ceremonies are now held here in amongst the citrus trees and the vibrant flowers.
