Newbattle Abbey

Newbattle Abbey in Dalkeith is a former medieval Cistercian monastery with a history of serving royalty and distinguished guests stretching back almost 1,000 years. This remarkable 'A' listed building sits beside the River Esk and is set within 125 acres of beautiful grounds, providing a tranquil setting for weddings or civil partnerships.

The venue boasts four historic suites for ceremonies, each with their own character and charm. Up to 80 guests can be accommodated in spaces such as the stunning Drawing Room, the Crypt, the Edwin Muir Room, and the Chapel. The expansive grounds offer a picturesque backdrop for wedding photography, as well as ample space for marquee events.

Newbattle Abbey is happy to recommend trusted wedding suppliers who have worked with them at previous celebrations, helping to make each occasion unique and stress-free. In addition to weddings, the Abbey is an ideal location for other special events, including birthdays, anniversaries, christenings, naming ceremonies, memorials, and funeral receptions.
