Callover Hall
The spectacular Fettes College main building is truly magical and forms part of Edinburgh’s beautiful and impressive historic skyline. The Callover Hall, with its stone floors, wood panelling, high ceilings, marble fireplace and statues and imposing staircase flanked by hand-carved wooden statues leading up to the 19th century French Gothic-style chapel offers up to 130 guests the perfect setting to mingle and enjoy a glass of champagne after your ceremony.
Old Library
The Old Library is the ideal location for the happy couple to have their photographs taken. This majestic room offers a truly magical feel with its floor-to-ceiling hand-carved book shelves, barley sugar pillars, 18th & 19th century books and imposing marble fireplace, above which is the coat of arms of Sir William Fettes, all looking out over Edinburgh’s stunning skyline and castle.
Chapel
At the heart of Fettes College, the chapel is styled on French Gothic architecture and features a hammer beam ceiling, similar to that in the Old Parliament Hall. Beautiful in its simplicity with wooden pews and rubble walls, the chapel invites the newlyweds-to-be the opportunity to personalise the space to reflect their individual tastes. The large stained glass windows add the finishing touches to this traditional yet intimate space.
