TO THE MANOR(VIEW) BORN

It’s all go at Manorview recently. The hotel group took over Brisbane House Hotel in Largs and Bothwell Bridge Hotel, making them the 10th and 11th in the collection of Scottish properties. The company has vast experience in the industry with its portfolio already including the likes of Bowfield Hotel and Country Club, Cornhill Castle and Boclair House Hotel so couples with their weddings booked at Brisbane House and Bothwell Bridge can rest assured their big day is in safe hands.

But that’s not all. Manorview has also recently transformed a bungalow at The Redhurst Hotel (pictured above) into a romantic suite with a garden for newlyweds to enjoy. The Garden House has been completely refurbished and features a luxuriously decorated bedroom with a standalone copper bathtub, an en suite with side-by-side sinks and an impressive wet room, as well as a living room with a dining space and private bar. Outside you’ll find a private garden with a hot tub, firepit and TV, along with pretty planting and a wedding pagoda, designed to create a gorgeous backdrop to your wedding photos. Just another reason to say ‘I do’ here! manorviewhotels.co.uk

Have you visited The Gailles Hotel & Spa in Irvine recently? Not only was it named the Best Spa & Leisure Hotel at the 2022 Prestige Hotel Awards, but it’s been undergoing a beautiful renovation. The rooftop conservatory has been given a facelift with a plantation beam installed along the ceiling, bringing the outdoors in, along with the new sliding barn doors at the back of the room which, when pulled back, reveal a beautiful lake mural. The outdoor rooftop area has also been given a garden feel and we’re loving the new pavilion – a gorgeous setting for your ceremony with seating for 180 guests. The surrounding moat with its fountain and the walkway built out over the pond provide the perfect backdrop for your just married photos. Inside, the Lagavulin Suite has been getting a full refurb with the new light grey colour scheme giving it an airy feel while the “porthole” design in the ceilings and on the walls carries through the nautical theme from Coast Restaurant & Bar. gaileshotel.com
