More than we imagined

We had the best experience with The Eglinton Arms Hotel!! From the minute we booked and all the way throughout, our day was phenomenal and the staff couldn’t have done enough for us! Big shout out to Adrian the hotel manager, honestly hats off to you !!. Not many businesses you get the management involved and giving it them absolute all so thank you. Our wedding coordinator Louize was so down to earth, honest, always an email away and done her all to make our wedding package exactly how we wanted and more. Our guests had nothing but compliments regarding both the food and staff. (Even if your not having a wedding just book for the food& service, you most definitely won’t be disappointed) From both Harley and I we will be forever greatful for our wedding day.

A different kind of wedding...

We looked at a few venues but the Eglinton Arms stood out way above anywhere else with its beautiful grounds and Earls Hall and their enthusiasm to help us create a 'different kind of wedding'. We didn't want a traditional style wedding package. We met with chef beforehand to create our menu – which was delicious – and Adrian, who created a delicious sangria and cocktails especially for our special day.

No stress at all!

Scott & I would like to thank you so much for organising our wedding. You really made it so easy and no stress at all, so thank you for that. ALL our guests had been so complimentary of all the hotel staff, from checking in, to during the day, to dinner, to the evening, to the bar staff after the wedding. Special mention for Adrian and then Cameron (and the other bar staff) after the wedding - it truly is an amazing team you have there.

Thanks again for a beautiful wedding day!

Just wanted to thank everyone who made our day go so perfectly. We had an amazing day as did the guests with so many commenting how nice the meal was. In particular Louize who helped with all the planning and was only an email or phone call away to help with any queries and Adrian who made the day run so smoothly. Housekeeping aswell especially Amanda who nothing was too much trouble in the morning when I was getting ready.

The hotel has a special place in our hearts

Louize our wedding planner took care of everything and eliminated all the stress that a wedding can bring. From our first meeting to our last meeting, we enjoyed every single moment of planning and preparing for our special day. The wedding package we chose suited us as a couple and the hotel were more than accommodating of all our needs. We absolutely loved the venue which was decorated for Christmas. We cannot thank all the staff enough for ensuring that our day went without any hiccups.

stress free!

We had our wedding at the Eglinton Arms in 2022 and we wouldn't change a thing! The venue is beautiful, the food is great and it's in a beautiful location for wedding photos with the orry and old village in the background. We planned our wedding in only three months but the staff were all so friendly and helpful that we found it all pretty easy and stress free! I would absolutely recommend it to anyone who is thinking of getting married, a real hidden gem of a wedding venue!

Scottish wedding with a touch of laidback elegance

From the moment we walked through the door at The Eglinton Arms Hotel, we instantly knew that this was the place we wanted to get married. From start to finish was so smooth and slick, professional yet personal. My husband and I had a wedding day that was absolutely 'us' to a tee. Every one of our guests commented on how amazing the staff were, how fabulous the food was and how stunning it is. We wanted a Scottish wedding with a touch of laid back elegance, and that is what we got.

A dream come true

Myself and my husband got married in the eglinton arms hotel in June 2022 and we both had the most amazing day. All the staff at the hotel where amazing everyone was so attentive and made sure everything ran like clock work on the day nothing was a hassle. It is such a pretty venue and from the minute I went to view it I fell in love with it and my day was everything I dreamed it would be and more and I can’t thank the staff at the Eglinton arms enough.

A hidden gem

This was our 3rd attempt to have our wedding day due to COVID and what a day it was. On the day itself everything was perfect, the staff are so attentive right through from the junior staff through to the management. We had quite a number of guests travelling from afar who made a weekend of it and all have commented they enjoyed the whole weekend. We would not hesitate to recommend the Eglinton Arms as a bit of a hidden gem as a 5 star wedding venue. It’s just so homely and welcoming.
