The first step to booking your special day with us is to
arrange a show round with one of our co-ordinators. They’ll be
happy to explain in detail about the resort, the facilities and what
Auchrannie can do to ensure everything runs smoothly on your big
day. Once you are happy with Auchrannie as your venue, you can
secure your preferred date with a deposit of just £500.
With our dedicated team of wedding co-ordinators, we will
ensure your day is unique. As we do not offer any
