Gosford House, the ancestral home of the Earl of Wemyss
and March, opened its doors to events in 2010.

With spaces designed with entertaining in mind, the house is ideally
set-up for a wide range of events, from gala dinners for 120, to
intimate dinners and activity days for 400.

The house boasts very contrasting spaces, which all provide a stunning
backdrop for both informal and more elegant occasions.
Art and architecture lovers will not be disappointed: the House still
hosts one of the greatest private art collections in Northern Europe.

The dining room boasts a warm feel with its wood
panelling and large sideboard which dominates the room.
Suitable for dinners of up to 100.

    The Gosford House An imposing neoclassical mansion commissioned by the 7th Earl of Wemyss. It houses an impressive art collection and offers many ancient relics that are well worth seeing. Gosford is still a family home and opened its doors in 2010 for the exclusive use of celebrations, gala dinners, weddings and special days. Opening times vary but are published in the daily newspaper an the Internet. Highly recommended.

    An interesting tour. Marble hall is beautiful. Shows what life was like in a completely different era. Good to visit if in the area when the limited tours are on.
