We can also arrange chauffeur services from across Scotland, or even arrival by Caledonian Sleeper for a touch of elegance. Whatever you decide, our concierge takes care of your luggage while your guests relax in the lounge or explore the gardens.

So, from the moment you enter, you’ll understand why Ness Walk stands among the best exclusive use wedding venues Scotland has to offer. Here, you’ll find calm, beauty, and a wedding venue that’s entirely your own for your special day.

Your bespoke wedding at an award-winning hotel

At Ness Walk, we believe that an exclusive-use wedding should reflect the couple at its heart. This means everything is about your story, your style, and your pace. And while we don’t hold ceremonies, we work closely with local churches and celebrants to help you plan a seamless day.

Our interior space can also be used for wedding preparations, and how you use the hotel is up to you. So, you can style the lounge with family photos or decorate the spaces to suit your theme and favoured style. No matter what, we’ll help you make it feel like a home from home.
