The Setting
Newhall Estate lies on the outskirts of Edinburgh yet is a world away from city life. Steeped in history, this hidden gem is known for its enchanting atmosphere and poetic elegance. Ensconced in idyllic grounds, its year-round appeal provides an ideal setting.
The Estate was built with family at its core. Not only has it been home to the Kennedy family for decades, but it has welcomed generations of families over its threshold to enjoy its exuberant charm and magic. A wedding symbolises the joining of two families and two people; they are proud and delighted that the estate can echo these sentiments with its ethos and history.
The Vibe
During your stay, they invite you to enjoy the house and grounds as if they were your home. Whether lighting the fires for your arrival or setting the dining room for a family dinner, they will work with you to ensure that all of your requirements are met and that each element of your weekend is personal and significant.
The Walled Garden provides an ethereal setting for a marriage, whilst the elegant Sun Room can comfortably seat 100 for a ceremony. The flexibility provided on the estate to accommodate rain or shine is unique: from the exquisite gardens to the warmth of the roaring fires, the year-round nature of the venue will ensure that your celebrations pass with ebullience and zest.
Their newly renovated Coach House can seat 150 for dinner; alternatively, you could choose to have a more intimate celebration in the opulent dining room. The house provides luxurious accommodation for up to 29, with room for a further 11 guests on-site in The Steading, The Bothy and Stable Flat.
Working with a trusted panel of caterers, a bespoke menu can be created for your tastes and needs – from simple drinks to the most decadent reception to culinary weekends.
Each weekend is tailored to your requests, acknowledging that Newhall is your home from Friday until Sunday evening. They are always delighted to help organise activities to entertain your guests, from clay pigeon shooting and archery to 4×4 driving, Highland Games and barbecues. The latter two are particular hits for blowing away cobwebs from the night before!
Fireworks can be arranged on request. In addition, with a working walled garden, they can provide flowers for your special day, whether for a bouquet or decoration.
There is an accessible bedroom on the ground floor of Newhall House and accessible toilets in the house and function space.

The doors of Gunnersbury Park House and the Orangery are open all year round on certain days of the week, so whether you’re looking to celebrate surrounded by the fresh blossoms of spring, in the glorious summer sunshine, amongst the rich colours of autumn or the bright, crisp frost of winter, the ever-changing beauty of their parkland and water features provides the perfect backdrop for those cherished photos and lifelong memories.
Following on from your ceremony, or on arrival if you’re looking to get married elsewhere, reception drinks and canapés can be enjoyed on the terrace or in front of the Orangery by the Horseshoe Pond. These stunning outside spaces will give your guests plenty of opportunity to enjoy the views whilst you and your photographer explore the grounds.
Once you’re ready to move on, dine in style courtesy of one of their incredible caterers and then party the night away with music and dancing in the Orangery (80 guests) or across the three interlinking Rothschild Rooms in the House (180 guests).

Rustic yet modern, intimate yet impressive – a wedding at Camel Studio promises to be unforgettable.
This stylish venue offers the choice of an indoor or outdoor licensed ceremony. Their barn is a romantic space with huge doors opening onto a view of fields and wooded hills. Or take your vows under the Cornish sun among their gardens that roll down to the valley beyond.
Camel Studio is not a typical rustic barn with its white walls, muslin drapes and festoon lights. Trestle tables, pretty cross-back chairs, a grand piano, olive trees and large ferns complement this beautiful canvas for you to style as you choose. The outside courtyard has a Mediterranean feel with olive trees, flower-filled pots, comfortable seating and pretty blue and green parasols.
On-site, their stylish boutique property sleeps eight, while the bridal suite, a cosy log cabin, is nestled within a secluded spot in the garden.
With their dedicated wedding team led by owners Helen and David and coordinator Jess, you can be sure your wedding will be everything you imagined and more.
