Castle Menzies is a spectacular Scottish castle wedding venue and an ideal location for weddings, parties, concerts, corporate events and filming. We provide a prestigious, historic and flexible venue.

Event hire

We are very used to hosting special and important events, from weddings and birthday parties to concerts, talks and corporate events.

Weddings

Weddings are our most popular type of hire and we are delighted to be able to offer our castle for such a special occasion. We do our utmost to cater for your every wish and aim to apply as few restrictions as possible, so that your special day is exactly as you want it to be. We are licenced for civil wedding ceremonies in the Dewar Room and Main Hall.

The local Registrar is Morven Cairncross in Aberfeldy.

Filming and photography

As well as the grandeur of its exterior and its main rooms, which have Georgian and Victorian styles, Castle Menzies also offers many interesting and unusual nooks and crannies as you would expect in a 16th Century castle. Many of the rooms on the upper floors are mostly bare and close to how they would originally have looked. We have a wide spiral staircase, well lit by natural light.

Outside

The small garden and well area at the immediate rear of the Castle, the grassed area immediately around the Castle walls to the side and front and our large Walled Garden on the hillside, a short walk from the Castle, are also available for inclusion in your hire package.

Castle Menzies stands just north of the River Tay at Weem on the B846, one and half miles from Aberfeldy. We are approximately 1.5 hours from Edinburgh by car, just a few minutes off the A9.

Brown tourist road-signs on local roads help show the way to Castle Menzies. Here are some simple directions for those travelling by car and bicycle.

From the North and South

Turn off the A9 at Ballinluig onto the A827 and follow this road into Aberfeldy. Go through Aberfeldy to the traffic lights junction where the A826 (to Crieff) meets the A827. At this junction turn right onto the B846 (Taybridge Road). Follow this road over the river (General Wade’s bridge over the River Tay) and into Weem village. Soon after you have left Weem village you will see Castle Menzies signs on the right. Turn right here onto the track towards the Castle. Park in front of the Castle.

From the West

Take the A82 to Crianlarich. From here take the A85 through Ardchyle and soon after turn left onto the A827 to Killin. Drive through Killin and stay on the A827 along the North shore of Loch Tay and eventually into Aberfeldy. You will soon reach the traffic lights junction where the A826 (to Crieff) meets the A827. At this junction turn left onto the B846 (Taybridge Road). Follow this road over the river (General Wade’s bridge over the River Tay) and into Weem village.
