Gorgeous venue with incredible staff.

Enterkine is a beautiful venue for a wedding. The venue room is absolutely gorgeous, with it's exposed beams, massive windows to a terrace with a stunning view and plenty of room for dancing and socializing. At one point we had our entire party of 50 people dancing a waltz (or attempting to dance with our collective lack of coordination) all within just 1/3 of the room! More than just the venue, the staff is also incredible. Over the last year I have messaged the staff countless number of times about details of the venue, food and drinks (provided at the venue) and accomodation for our guests. All of my questions have been quickly and patiently answered, sometimes multiple times (as I lost previous messages in a whirlwind of emails). They were also very patient when I had to change certain details of the wedding at the last moment. On the day of the wedding, everyone was very well organized, making sure that everything went smoothly, thanks to which our big day was exactly how we imagined it. We couldn't have asked for anything to go better. Finally the accomodation, my husband and I stayed at 3 different types of accomodation in the 2 nights that we spent at the Resort - the Byre, Enterkine View (bridal suite) and Bluebell lodge. All of these rooms were very comfortable, clean and well maintained. We were very happy with our stay, as were our guests.

Very poor customer service

My Fiancé and I had booked a viewing at Enterkine House with the possibility of booking our wedding. The setting and venue were stunning, however we turned up 5 minutes ahead of our appointment time and were completely ignored by the staff. We were told 3 times that they would be with us in “two minutes”. A couple who arrived after us were approached first and again we were left to wait. No apology about running late, no offer of a drink; simply left in reception where staff avoided eye contact with us. After 40 minutes we decided to get up and leave as there were another 2 couples also waiting to be attended to. As we started to leave, we were very quickly told they were “running late” and they pleaded to take 2 minutes to show us around. Very disappointed as we were keen to explore this venue, but couldn’t take the risk of similar service on the most special day of our lives.

"Beautiful day from start to finish."

“We had the most amazing day thanks to everyone at the resort, everything ran so smoothly and you were always on hand to help with anything we needed. We got married on 4th August 2023 and it was just a beautiful day from start to finish. We received so many compliments from our guests around the food as they said it was one of the best wedding meals they have ever had, the venue itself as everyone said it was absolutely stunning and was so lovely to be able to go out onto the balcony as well.
