Overview
Logie Country House is a historic Scottish country house and estate in Aberdeenshire, operated as an exclusive-use wedding and events venue. The property is a 1680s castle built on estate lands dating back to 1492, located in the Royal Burgh of Inverurie, roughly 16 miles west of Aberdeen and positioned as a gateway to the Scottish Highlands. It sits within around 160 acres of countryside and ancient woodland, overlooking Bennachie and the River Urie. The house was gutted by a devastating fire in 1974 and lay in ruins for over thirty years before being bought as a ruin in 2006. A multi-million-pound restoration was completed in 2009, bringing the building back into use while retaining its historic character. Today it offers 17/18 bedrooms sleeping up to 50 guests, an indoor heated pool, two outdoor hot tubs, a cinema room, a courtyard, a dining room for 50, a wedding ballroom for 160 day guests, and a private island. As a commercial venue, Logie Country House specialises in multi-day, exclusive-use weddings: typically two days and nights mid-week or three days and nights over a long weekend, with the entire house and estate reserved for the couple and their guests. It also hosts smaller intimate weddings, twilight weddings and other private celebrations, with in-house catering and a range of indoor and outdoor ceremony spaces including the courtyard, woodland, island and ballroom. The venue has been voted Best Exclusive Use Wedding Venue at the Top Tier Wedding Awards every year since 2018, and markets itself on privacy, flexibility, scenery and a relaxed, unpretentious style of hospitality.
History
Logie Country House stands on estate lands whose recorded history dates back to 1492. The house itself was built in 1680, during the reign of King Charles II, beginning as a traditional Scottish tower house and being extensively modified through the 1700s. Over the following centuries it served as a country house in the Aberdeenshire countryside near Inverurie, roughly 16 miles west of Aberdeen. In 1974 the building was gutted by a devastating fire and was left as a ruin for more than thirty years. It was bought in that ruined state in 2006, and a multi-million-pound restoration was completed in 2009, carefully bringing the historic house back to life. The restoration aimed to combine genuine historic character with modern comfort — working heating, no draughts and contemporary amenities for guests. Following restoration, Logie Country House was developed as a commercial exclusive-use venue, primarily for weddings and private celebrations. It offers the entire house and estate to a single booking, with 17/18 bedrooms sleeping up to 50 guests, an indoor heated pool, two outdoor hot tubs, a cinema room, a courtyard, a dining room for 50 and a ballroom for 160 day guests, plus a private island and Highland cows on the estate. Weddings are typically structured as two-day mid-week or three-day long-weekend celebrations, with options for intimate weddings, twilight weddings and additional evenings. The venue has been recognised at the Top Tier Wedding Awards, being voted Best Exclusive Use Wedding Venue every year since 2018, and markets itself as one of the most established exclusive-use wedding venues in Scotland.
