What is the best photo location on site at Otterburn Castle?
A personal favorite is the front lawn to show the expanse of the castle! (But our hush-hush location is the hidden pond.) Or... ask us about the horses on property to bring in a bit of the unexpected to your day!
What style does an Otterburn Castle wedding exude?
With all our many years of history, we understand that tradition has its place, but we adore pushing the boundaries to bring luxury, modern essence, and personal taste to the gorgeous landscape of the Northumberland property.
Are you offering anything different than the other castle venues in the area?
YES! Think Las Vegas-style elopements, cheeky getaways, and vow renewals offered anywhere on our 32 acres to give the idea that you're (almost) running away to Scotland! We are 17 miles away from the borderline.
What are the additional onsite amenities?
Our hotel bar is vibrant and full of life to welcome your guests to Otterburn Castle or gather for a chat during your wedding weekend. Walking trails along the property which take you along the River Rede brings a thriving natural scene steps away.
What do you offer for catering at Otterburn Castle?
Our in-house catering team at Otterburn Castle works closely with couples to design bespoke menus including canapés, coursed wedding breakfast, and relaxed (or unique!) evening buffets.
Is accommodation available on-site for wedding guests?
Otterburn Castle features 17 individually styled en-suite bedrooms available for rent. You already have your Honeymoon Suite included!
What else can my guests do in the surrounding area?
Let us list a few items-- fish along our share of the River Rede, view the Northern Lights outside the castle door or at the Dark Sky Observatory, visit the coastline, head into the bustling centre of Newcastle, trek through Northumberland National Park, head over to Kielder Forest, examine Roman ruins... should we go on?
What's the size range of guests you can accommodate?
Elopements will welcome as few as 2, and we can welcome over 300 guests across the Front Lawn.
Do you have any unique tales about the castle?
As any good property in England will tell you, we have our fair share of ghost stories over the 900-year history. William the Conquerer gifted this property to his cousin in 1086, and much later, Sir Walter Scott visited to gather inspiration for his famous work, Rokeby. We've had writers, photographers, opera singers, and more stay on the property!
What's the feature you're most proud of about Otterburn Castle?
We're ready to redefine weddings and show your guests a new side to the North East!
