Weddings
The award winning Ardtornish House is the perfect romantic venue for your wedding day. Set in landscaped gardens, this historic Victorian Mansion is a much loved family home to the Raven family, and offers you and your guests a wonderfully secluded and romantic setting to celebrate your special day exclusively.
Ceremony
The perfect wedding day begins with the perfect setting. What could be more romantic than one of Scotland’s finest 19th Century mansion houses surrounded by 25 acres of lochside highland beauty, exclusively yours for your special day? The Estate spans acres across lakes, woodlands and the beautiful Ardtornish Gardens. Couples are welcome to marry anywhere in the estate they feel would best suit them. If an enclosed space is more to your taste, you may choose the lovely Keil Church nearby, Ardtornish House itself or the gardens. We have a full wedding license for a choice of Religious, Civil or Humanist Services.

Aside from our promise of a dream come true on your wedding day, we gift you the services of our experienced Events Co-ordinator, from the moment you contact us through to the end of your perfect day.
