The Rooms
The MacMillan Room
 |
Our MacMillan Room, which is the ideal place to hold your ceremony, gives you the choice of saying your vows facing breathtaking views across the Pentland Hills or towards our antique fireplace. It is wonderfully light and airy, decorated in shades of Wedgwood blue and grey, with intricate decorative plasterwork and has a very romantic ambience. During the day the room is flooded with natural daylight making sure you get the perfect pictures of your perfect day. |
The Geddes and Gillespie Rooms
 |
Our Geddes and Gillespie Rooms are usually recommended as the evening rooms because they can be set up as two separate rooms or joined together to make one large L shaped function suite. The two rooms combine to become one magnificent oak panelled room with views across the park and direct access to our gardens. They are ideal because you can have the dining area on one side and a party area on the other; with room for a DJ or band and dance floor. |
Edinburgh Zoo Gardens
 |
Or, for something really different, why not get married somewhere in the Zoo itself, alongside your favourite animal? You could take your vows within our beautifully kept Gardens, or on top of the African Plains with views to Arthur’s seat; assuming it’s a good day of course, if not we have Mansion House as a backup. |
Due to the style of the house and its gardens, with lots of hidden spots and grand décor, it has numerous focal points to give your photographer inspiration. We can also provide a list of potential florists, pipers, DJ’s etc to help the planning go as smoothly as possible.
We have a variety of options available for your special day. Please click on the link below to download our latest Wedding brochure.
