Ingliston Estate & Country Club
Country estate wedding venue on 90 acres at Bishopton, Renfrewshire, with lodges and a marquee for 500
Ingliston Estate and Country Club sits on more than 90 acres of private grounds at Bishopton in Renfrewshire, close to Glasgow Airport and between Glasgow city centre and Loch Lomond. Alongside its weddings, the estate runs an equestrian centre, a restaurant, hotel rooms and a set of lodges, so it can host everything from a midweek wedding for 35 to a large marquee party.
Why it suits LGBTQ+ couples
The estate gives you a lot of choice. Each of its three spaces is licensed, so you can marry and celebrate in the same room, and there is an outdoor ceremony option in summer. You can use the in-house catering and bar or bring in your own caterers, which leaves room to shape the day around the two of you rather than a set formula.
Ceremonies
The Grand Marquee, the Salerno Suite and the Connemara Suite are all licensed for ceremonies. In summer, the Champagne Terrace off the Salerno Suite is licensed for outdoor ceremonies, giving you vows in the open air with the countryside around you. Smaller and midweek weddings start from 35 guests.
Receptions and food
The Salerno Suite and the Connemara Suite each seat up to 120 guests for dinner, with extra space for evening guests. The Grand Marquee is the largest space, taking up to 500 guests. The in-house team runs catering and bar service with flexible packages, or you can self-cater with caterers of your choice. Palomino's restaurant on the estate hosts live music on Saturdays.
Staying
The estate has hotel rooms ranging from classic and deluxe doubles and twins to a junior suite, all with countryside views. There are also 14 lodges, five of which have hot tubs, saunas and outdoor seating. Guests with motorhomes or caravans can stay at The Paddocks touring park on site.
Getting there and the area
The estate is on Old Greenock Road, a few minutes from Glasgow Airport and the M8. Bishopton has a railway station with trains to Glasgow Central. Loch Lomond is a short drive north, and there are six electric vehicle charging points on site.
