Facilities and Capacity

Crear Weddings offers complete flexibility to host your celebration in understated luxury, total privacy, and a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere. Crear is ideal for a hundred guests and is equally perfect if it's just the two of you wishing to escape the pressure of family and friends - in which case we would be happy to act as witnesses if required.

Crear is fully licensed, including the grounds surrounding the house and down to the rugged coast and sandy beaches - giving you miles of choice for the exact location for your marriage ceremony. There are also several beautiful churches close by. The main studio is larger than a tennis court, lit by a continuous glass wall overlooking the Paps of Jura and providing the perfect venue for a party. Wherever you look at Crear, the emphasis is on comfort and warmth. Enjoy the simplicity of wood-panelled walls and warm slate floors. Sink into one of the deep armchairs or sofas in front of the open fire, with uninterrupted views to the Isles of Islay, Jura, and Gigha and the coast of Ireland.

A magical wedding, Andrew to Susanna

The perfect wedding? One where the bride turns to her mother when it’s all over and says ‘thank you for the best weekend ever!’
The sun shone, the piper enlivened the walk to the beach and the sheep joined in as the charming celebrant took the ceremony. The scenery was breath taking, the staff were superbly organised and attentive, the food outstanding in quality and presentation. Guests said it was the best wedding they’d attended: not only the children went in for a paddle…
My daughter planned it all aided by the redoubtable Julie who even produced emergency plans when our marquee company burned down days before. Thankfully, wonderful Lowland Marquees saved the day. Crear Flowers’ magnificent blooms caused gasps as did the magical screen of fairy-lit silver birch trees around our bar area. Crear’s photographer was excellent and West Coast Motors safely transported our 140 guests to and from the venue.
I can’t speak highly enough of Crear- a venue for individualistswho rejoice in nature and love cordon bleu food. Embrace Crear. She will reward you handsomely.

Wow!

Wow! What an amazing experience from start to finish. Crear was so helpful in organising our special day. The cottage was a dream, perfect for us, with the most spectacular views we have ever seen. The flowers provided were perfect, I couldn't have picked out what I wanted better. A massive thank you to Crear's photographer and piper, helping make memories we can keep forever. We were lucky enough to experience Crear in every season and will be sad to leave this winter wonderland.

We had a wonderful day

A massive thank you to all who were involved in our wee wedding! We had a wonderful day. Thank you to Crear's piper making our walk on the beach very special. A special mention also to Crear's photographer for his photography skills. Both were fantastic with our daughter who was excited to be a princess for the day. I absolutely loved my bouquet and it was exactly what I had hoped for. We had a warm welcome on our arrival thanks to all at Crear.

Clear blue skies and perfect views

After a snow filled build up in the week before, we enjoyed the best day of weather with clear blue skies and perfect views of Jura. We have had the most magical time with our closet friends. Thank you to all the Crear team. Board games, plenty of food and wine. The perfect way to spend the first day as husband and wife.

an unforgettable experience

Thank you all so much for an unforgettable experience. The cottage and the surrounding area is breathtakingly beautiful. All the staff we dealt with were pleasant and hospitable. Our stay here was exactly what were hoping for, we couldn't be happier that we chose to have our wedding day here with you all. This place definitely made our trip from New York entirely worth while. Hopefully we will be back to visit soon.

Incredible

We have had an amazing four day stay at the enchanting Crear, and all it has to offer. The amazing scenery, the idyllic beach and of course the staff at this truly wonderful resort. Memories from this week will remain with us for the rest of our lives. To the people that follow in our footsteps to Crear, rest assured, you have made the right choice for your special day. PS- don't forgot to visit the seals two miles down the road, when they bask in the sun, INCREDIBLE!
