GUARDSWELL IS A 150 ACRE GRASSLAND FARM, WITH PANORAMIC VIEWS TO KILL.
SITUATED IN BETWEEN THE PICTURESQUE PERTHSHIRE VILLAGES OF ABERNYTE AND KINNAIRD, GUARDSWELL IS WITHIN 1.5HRS OF ABERDEEN, GLASGOW AND EDINBURGH, WITH BOTH DUNDEE AND PERTH A 15 MINUTE DRIVE AWAY.
A MULTI-PURPOSE RURAL VENUE, RETAINING ITS AGRICULTURAL HERITAGE WITH A SCOTTISH CONTEMPORARY TWIST. SUITABLE FOR ANYTHING FROM A WEDDING, TO A MARKET, TO A FLORISTRY COURSE, TO A PING PONG TOURNAMENT. YOU NAME IT, WE’LL GIVE IT A GO.
ROLLING GRASS FIELDS, DENSE EVERGREEN WOODLANDS, WILDFLOWER BANKINGS, HAPPILY GRAZING SHEEP, FREE RANGE CHICKENS, NEWLY PLANTED HEDGEROWS, HILLTOP HUTS, BUSY PIGS AND AN OVERFLOWING VEGETABLE GARDEN.
A SPACE TO SET YOUR IMAGINATION FREE.
E V E N T S A T G U A R D S W E L LTO US, GUARDSWELL IS SO MUCH MORE THAN JUST A VENUE.
ITS EVERYTHING AROUND THE STEADING, EVERYTHING THAT HAPPENS DAY TO DAY AND EVERY FOOTSTEP THROUGH THE FIELDS THAT MAKES “GUARDSWELL”.
GUARDSWELL EVENTS ARE CREATIVE, RELAXED, INFORMAL. THEY APPRECIATE THE SIMPLER THINGS IN LIFE: FAMILY, FRIENDS, GOOD FOOD, GOING A LITTLE SLOWER...
A GUARDSWELL EVENT GIVES BACK.IT ALLOWS US TO RUN OUR COURSES, IT ALLOWS CHILDREN TO DASH AROUND THE FIELDS CHASING BUTTERFLIES, IT ALLOWS US TO INCREASE THE BIODIVERSITY OF THE FARM, AND IT HELPS SUPPORT A RURAL WORKING FARM BUSINESS.
GUARDSWELL EVENTS ARE FULL OF FREEDOM. WE DONT COORDINATE THE EVENTS AT THE FARM, WE JUST LET OUT A BLANK CANVAS SPACE, WHICH MEANS THAT YOU CAN TAILOR EVERY LITTLE DETAIL OF YOUR EVENT- EACH ROOM, THE ORDER IN WHICH YOU DO THINGS... PROMOTING CREATIVITY AND ENSURING THAT EACH EVENT IS DIFFERENT.
