Blair Castle
This beautiful Scottish Castle located in the Highlands in picturesque Pitlochry, nestled among the trees and gardens and breathtaking scenery cannot be beaten in providing a wonderful event venue from a Highland wedding to conferences and meetings.
This historic building dating back to 1269 but was given its grand Victorian façade we see today in the 1860’s/70’s. It is now a visitor attraction and has many beautiful rooms, with original features to hire for events such as weddings and meetings. The events co-ordinator and team ensure all your finishing touches are taken care of and everything runs smoothly from start to finish allowing you to soak up your surroundings and enjoy this picture-perfect castle in the Highlands.
The State Dining Room is a grand example of traditional Georgian architecture with stunning views and a breathtaking interior. This room can be used for large scale conference or banqueting and can accommodate up to 140 guests. The impressive Ballroom, with traditional Highland decorative wall of antlers and rustic dark wood paneling and large dance floor is popular for dinner dances and can seat 400 theatre-style or 220 for banqueting.
For more intimate gatherings are the glass-walled Banvie Hall, with a more contemporary feel and the more traditional Library with its inspiring collection of wall to wall Scottish Literature can both seat 12 in a boardroom setting or up to 40 guests theatre-style.
The castle has accommodation within the grounds with several lodges for hire and a caravan park making it a perfect base for exploring or an easy retiring space following your event.

Originally added in 1530, this part of the castle housed the Great Hall on the first floor. The space was transformed during the 1740s when the castle was remodelled as a Georgian mansion, and one of Scotlands greatest conference venues was created. The magnificent interior is enhanced by the superb views over the landscape to distant Schiehallion. So when an occasion requires an appropriate sense of style, the baroque ambience of the State Dining Room offers a regal setting for private dinners, where 16-50 guests can celebrate a special anniversary or gather for a corporate event, whether to such as impress key clients or mark an important milestone. The State Dining Room is also a splendid setting for wedding ceremonies and drinks receptions for up to 140 people
