Balvaird Wing at Scone Palace Christmas 2026

Perched above the River Tay in the heart of Perthshire, within the historic grounds of Scone Palace, the Balvaird Wing enjoys a magnificent setting with sweeping views north towards the Highlands and east through Strathmore to the coast. The distant Grampian Mountains create a dramatic backdrop, while across the river lies the elegant city of Perth.

This exclusive wing offers an exceptional setting for a truly indulgent self-catering Christmas escape. Step into refined comfort and timeless grandeur, and celebrate the festive season, surrounded by heritage, beauty, and complete privacy.

Whether enjoying mulled wine beside a roaring fire, or strolling through the palace grounds wrapped in winter stillness, the Balvaird Wing provides a magical festive retreat.
