Situated in the grounds of a private Highland estate and along the banks of the river Devero, Answanley is equally suitable for a large, luxurious occasion or a small and intimate gathering.
The newly refurbished Answanley Steading has incorporated the original stone walling and huge baronial fireplaces to create a series of interconnecting rooms, encasing a bar area, stunning central dining room and ballroom; a perfect venue for any style of wedding. In the summer months, the patio doors are opened for guests to take advantage of the large riverside terrace and a marquee can be arranged on request.
Answanley holds a licence for both religious and civil ceremonies; and weddings can be organised in-house or left entirely under the bride and groom’s remit. However, it should be noted that the owners of Aswanley do have many years experience of wedding celebrations, and offer a unique personal wedding service, with particular attention to detail at all times.
Aswanley are able to call on a wide range of local, experienced catering staff, who can prepare lavish wedding breakfasts for up to 200 seated guests, or 250 guests for a buffet style arrangement.
Accommodation at Aswanley is in the form of five picturesque cottages, all set within their own gardens, with stunning views across the rolling countryside. The cottages are self-catering and each can accommodate up to 6 people. The honeymoon croft is set apart from the cottages, situated within beautiful woodland on the estate.
