Historic Edinburgh has a wealth of wonderful venues to choose from.  You will have no problem in finding a unique or unusual venue for your gala dinner, special event or celebration.  In addition to Edinburgh Castle which can accommodate 100 for dinner in the Jacobite Room or 1000 for a drinks reception throughout the entire castle,  there are at least five other castles in and around Edinburgh that would make a memorable venue for your event.

One of Edinburgh's most famous landmarks of recent years is The Royal Yacht Britannia which is moored at Leith.  Group tours of the ship are available throughout the day while the magnificent State Dining Room is available to hire and can seat 96 for dinner.
