Winton lands predate the Magna Carta; and the Setons built the House before Leonardo da Vinci established his reputation. Their architect, the King's Master Mason, didn't work on ordinary castles! His carved, twisted chimneys still herald the palace within and his ornate plaster ceilings are the most elaborate in Scotland.

PRIVATE

The warm atmosphere of Winton House has taken half a millennium to develop, making it a unique and memorable venue, whether you're holding a private celebration, a corporate conference or a seminar. You'll be welcomed by open log fires, the enthusiastic but discrete home team and the ancestors (on the walls!) to ensure you feel completely at home.
Perfect for Entertaining or Business Events

With its series of inter-connecting reception rooms, the castle is a perfect venue for dinners, away days, special celebrations, conferences or meetings, and all forms of hospitality events.
Your guests are welcomed in the Front Hall and the striking and beautifully proportioned Octagon with its bar. From there, they can move through to the Drawing Room, Library (King Charles Room), Cabinet Room and Dining Room, mixing and mingling in the opulent but relaxed surroundings. With dramatic fireplaces and historic paintings, there are plenty of talking points.
Exclusively Yours

Winton House is an exclusive use venue, all yours for the duration of your event. The outside is as impressive as the inside - on a summer's evening your guests can take full advantage of the lawns and terraced gardens, or admire Sir David's Loch from the Drawing Room balcony.
