Description

Friars Carse Wedding Venue, SW Scotland’s premier wedding venue with historical links to Robert Burns, is a Scottish Baronial castle-like hotel alongside the River Nith in beautiful rural Dumfriesshire not far from Gretna Green, M6/M74 routes north and south of the border.
Hidden along a private drive, Friars Carse Country House Hotel offers peace and tranquillity, a perfect location for riverside wedding ceremonies or inside, using the oak-panelled lounge. The fully heated, permanent wedding marquee adjacent to the hotel accommodates 150 guests for a wedding meal and comes with its own bar, toilets, space for band/disco, and features star-cloth lighting for evening receptions.
For more intimate weddings, the Nith Room overlooks the lawn towards the river. Guests may be accommodated in 21 ensuite bedrooms, one of which is the 4-poster Honeymoon Suite with a double-size jacuzzi bath.
Friars Carse Country House Hotel is available for exclusive use at weddings and private house parties, offering traditional Scottish Menus.
