THE GARDEN IS tucked beside the tranquil Poniel Burn and surrounded by the breathtaking Lanarkshire countryside, The Garden at Folkerton Mill offers a beautifully natural setting for your ceremony. The charming wooden bridge and historic iron water wheel add an authentic rustic touch, creating a truly romantic backdrop for your vows and photographs.
THE STRETCH CANOPY. To ensure your day is perfect in any weather, we provide a stylish stretch tent, so you can enjoy the magic of an outdoor ceremony, rain or shine.
THE HAY BARN overlooks the estate with breathtaking views of the South Lanarkshire countryside, the Hay Barn beautifully blends rustic charm with versatility. Retaining many of its original features, this character-filled space offers a blank canvas for you to personalise—whether you prefer understated elegance or bold, creative décor.
At its heart hangs a striking chandelier crafted from an old wooden ladder salvaged from the Mill, while the exposed wooden beams provide plenty of opportunities to add your own decorative touches. As our largest indoor space, the barn comfortably seats up to 100 guests for a relaxed and memorable wedding feast and the best party space for your evening celebration.

Guests are wowed as they step back in time and experience our beautifully handcrafted bar. It is perfectly built around the original mill machinery and offers an array of locally sourced delicious drinks.
