The perfect wedding venue!
Dunollie Castle is in the most beautiful location, has an amazing view and the most wonderful team. Throughout our journey with them they were always on hand to answer our questions - not just about Dunollie but to offer local advice about the area too. Everyone was so friendly and made our wedding feel unique and personal to us. Thank you everyone at Dunollie!

Dunollie Castle Romantic Elopement
Iris and all the staff at Dunollie Castle were so accommodating and went above and beyond to make the wedding day perfect for my clients. The castle and grounds are in an amazing spot with the most amazing backdrop and the couple picked it because of its history and the view. I highly recommend booking the Castle for your wedding venue - you won't regret it!
