A 17th-century, 5-star restoration, just a short distance from Glasgow
Crossbasket offers an unforgettable wedding experience for you and your guests. Complete with a four-storey private bridal tower and an array of opulent public rooms, including a Grand Roosevelt Ballroom, with space enough to welcome over 250 people, Crossbasket Castle promises a magical experience.

The magnificent castle, manicured gardens and marvellous location make Crossbasket a truly beautiful setting for a wedding. The castle provides an impressive backdrop to your celebration with versatile facilities that allow your wedding day to be tailored to your requirements.
Tucked away on the outskirts of the bustling city of Glasgow, yet overlooking the stunning waterfalls of the River Calder, you will be transported to the tranquillity and beauty of a vast country estate.
The Ceremony
There are a range of beautiful spacious rooms to choose from: the gold-leafed Ballie Room; the exquisite Stewart Room with its lovely bay window overlooking the beautiful gardens; or the newest addition, the James Little Hall. Invite your chosen florist to design floral displays to complement your bridal bouquet and organise music to suit your taste. Together with the historical décor, paintings and antiques, the setting could not be more romantic.
The Wedding Breakfast
Guests are able to enjoy a dining experience where the superb cuisine is overseen by Michel Roux Jr.
Parties of up to 5 Guests
These weddings take place on the top floor of the Lindsay Tower, with drinks and an intimate wedding breakfast. This is the oldest part of the castle, built in the 16th century, originally to improve its defensive position. It has been restored as a fabulous, romantic 4-storey suite, served by a sweeping spiral staircase; perfect for the wedding couple!
Parties of 6 to 60 Guests



Weddings for 6-60 guests are held in the James Little Hall, followed by drinks on the ground floor of the castle and an intimate wedding breakfast in the Stewart Room or the exquisite Baillie Room. This option is ideal for the smaller wedding party looking to have an intimate ceremony followed by an exquisite meal created especially for you.
Exclusive-use Weddings
For weddings with over 60 guests, exclusive-use will ensure complete privacy and give you and your guests uninterrupted access to the grounds throughout your stay, perfect for photographs against the backdrop of the River Calder.
You can be married in the James Little Hall, followed by drinks and canapés. Your wedding breakfast is served in the beautiful Roosevelt Grand Hall, overlooking the River Calder.
