About this space

The elegant Grand Ballroom is the hotel's most popular and flexible function room which can be split into two smaller rooms (Ben Nevis and Springbank) separated by a soundproof dividing wall.

Features include modern contemporary furnishings, floor to ceiling windows offering an
abundance of natural light and uninterrupted views of the venue's gardens, two granite
topped bars and a large parquetry dance floor. This stunning room is ideal for weddings,
