- MMark06/11/2025Amazing wedding experienceAmazing wedding experienceWe attended Cornhill Castle for the event of my son and daughter in law's wedding. From start to finish, arriving the night before and leaving the day after the wedding the staff could not have done more. To say they gave 100% would be an understatement, it was well in excess. Chefs who made the fantastic food, waiting staff and bar staff were brilliant, friendly and professional, they are a credit to this establishment.

- MMalcolm06/11/2025Wonderful wedding venue with fantastic staffWonderful wedding venue with fantastic staffJust back from our elder daughter’s wedding at Cornhill. It was a wonderful occasion and the staff had much to do with making it so good. Lovely people - they treated my daughter’s wedding as a unique and special event which it obviously was to her. Cornhill does weddings several times a week but the only evidence of that was the efficiency of their operation ,no sign of weariness or ‘just another wedding’. Cannot speak highly enough of Cornhill if you are planning a wedding go there!Just back from our elder daughter’s wedding at Cornhill.
