“BETWEEN EVERY TWO PINES THERE IS A DOORWAY TO A NEW WORLD”
John Muir

Falkland Estate has a diverse landscape resulting in varied habitats from insects to deer. With the diversity of low lying organic farmland, to woodland and hillside heather, the wildlife is varied and a real treat to see. Please respect the land and the wildlife and any lucky photo captures of wildlife at Falkland Estate can be shared on social media.

Designed by the renowned Scottish architect Reginald Fairlie in the early 1900s and architecturally B-listed by Historic Environment Scotland, the roofless Memorial Chapel is a beautiful Scottish Gothic style building and perfect for your wedding ceremony. Standing alone in Home Park field with panoramic views over the Estate and the East Lomond Hill.

Your journey to the Chapel starts at the fish pond. Designed by Alexander Roos the mid 1800s, the pond is the most perfect backdrop for your photos, then gently stroll up our woodland path towards the Chapel. (Please note the Chapel is not consecrated).

Drinks and Canapes can be served in the Stables Courtyard and surrounding rooms, including the original Horsestalls where you can keep cosy by our wood burning fire if it is a cooler day.

The B-listed Stables Courtyard was beautifully restored in 2014 offering a large circular lawn set in a suntrap with an ornate drinking trough as the centrepiece. It creates a lovely space for guests to have a drink and take some pictures with the married couple.

Want to marry in the woodlands? That’s no problem. One of the riches of Falkland Estate is that the ceremony venue is really of your choosing. It can be your favourite circle of trees, under a canopy in the woodland or one of the many stone bridges.

For couples looking for an outdoor ceremony without the worries of the Scottish weather we have the perfect solution. Just step over the willow bridge at the Stables and follow the woodland path. Here you will find a large covered canopy situated in an opening of trees, with the stream running past and views of East Lomond Hill.

If you prefer indoors, then you will find The Carriage Room to be a cosy room with underfloor heating and a wood burning stove. It is a flexible space, which you can design to your requirements. Let the outdoors in with our large double doors, allowing you to relax with your guests outside in the fresh air whilst keeping cosy by the fire pit. We can even offer you a woodfired pizza oven with beautiful outdoor seating, and a woodland cabin.
