A fairytale moment brought to life

This was a fairytale moment brought to life. We couldn’t have had a more perfect wedding. The entire staff took the house and our experience to a level beyond our expectations. We feel so blessed to have had the joy of exchanging our vows in this magnificent and picturesque place. The customer service, attention to detail, the welcoming environment and the depth of history and character of this great house, lend themselves to momentous events, tying together the past, present & future.

Simply the best house, setting and wedding venue!

Our daughter's wedding at Mount Stuart over Hogmanay 2021-22 was simply the most incredible weekend we could have ever hoped for. The house is literally the most beautiful house in the world. We've been to all the palaces, Versailles, etc. but nothing really compares to the perfection that is Mount Stuart. Their staff are wonderful and every detail of the house is astonishing. Our guests were over the moon and thought that every element was magical and extraordinary.

The day of the wedding was absolutely perfect!

The day of the wedding was absolutely perfect, and we couldn't have asked for anything to go differently or be better. Mount Stuart were on hand, being as helpful and accommodating as a venue could be, and Kate's sense of calm was exactly what everyone needed. The team at Mount Stuart were so accommodating and in such good spirits throughout.

We had our wedding at Mount Stuart in July this year

We had our wedding at Mount Stuart in July this year. It was more than we could have ever dreamed of. Can't think of a more magical place to tie the knot. Everything was perfect from start to finish and the MS Team couldn't have done more for us. Both ourselves and our guests were made to feel so welcome. This place really does become your own home for the duration of the wedding celebrations. Would highly recommend a visit to this beautiful house at least once in your lifetime.

Mount Stuart is an enchanting place

"Mount Stuart is the wedding venue dreams are made of. Upon first visiting Mount Stuart during January 2019, we fell in love with it at first sight. When we got engaged in 2020, there was only one venue which truly stood out to us and we were so happy to know it was available for our chosen date in 2021. Unfortunately, with Covid, we had to move it to 2022. Both during the planning stages and on our wedding day itself, the Mount Stuart team were a pleasure to work with and so professional. A special thanks to Kate Martin, who truly went above and beyond to make our day unforgettable. Kate accommodated our every need, had a solutions oriented approach and did it all with a smile - she is a superstar! A mention also to Jim (our master of ceremonies), whose energy and personality added so much to our guests' enjoyment on the day. Finally, a huge thank you to the wider Mount Stuart team, from the tour guides, through to the front of house staff - every interaction with you was an absolute pleasure and you made our day so special. Mount Stuart is an enchanting place and we can't wait to visit again.”
