Huntingtower
Castle
Ceremonies & Photography
Once known as The House of Ruthven,
Huntingtower Castle was a lordly residence
for over 300 years and was associated with two
noble families – the Ruthvens and the Murrays.
Comprising two fine and complete tower houses,
built just three metres apart in the 15th and 16th
centuries and joined in later years, the castle’s
eastern tower has a striking hall with a splendid
painted ceiling and walls.
Huntingtower has in its time hosted some famous
visitors, and been linked with dramatic events, but
it is perhaps best remembered romantically as the
honeymoon destination of Mary Queen of Scots
and Lord Darnley.
Facilities
60 chairs, a red carpet, two tables with tablecloths,
a table top lectern, a battery powered CD/USB/SD
audio player, LED candles and two cast iron flower
stands are available.
Additional Information
Candles are not permitted at Huntingtower
Castle. The castle has no heating due to the
sensitive nature of its architecture. There
is limited parking at the castle.
