King Charles’ charity to open ‘luxury’ new wedding venue
King Charles’ charity behind ‘luxury’ wedding venue at Dumfries House
- The King's Foundation, established by King Charles, is constructing a new events venue named The King's Hall at Dumfries House in Cumnock, East Ayrshire.
- Scheduled to open in summer 2027, the luxury space will accommodate up to 200 guests, aiming to become a premier destination for high-end weddings and private events.
- The single-storey extension is designed to match the 300-year-old architecture of Dumfries House, utilising traditional building techniques and locally-sourced materials.
- Proceeds from ticketed events and venue hire will support the foundation's conservation and development of the estate, alongside its education programmes and community initiatives.
- The project has received approval from East Ayrshire Council and Historic Environment Scotland, with the first events in The King's Hall anticipated for July 2027.
