Photo opportunities? Castles are steeped in history and the photo opportunities are endless both inside and out. Rooms full of amazing paintings, wall coverings and antiques, as well as acres of beautiful well tended grounds.

Most castles can offer weddings of all sizes, from an intimate group of just 20 to +200 guests. As well as plenty of room inside, there is often the option to erect a marquee within the grounds should numbers be even higher.
So for true romance and a stunning setting, a castle has to be one of the best options.
