Georgian House
|
The Georgian House, with its elegant furnished interior, is located at No. 7 Charlotte Square. The Square was conceived by Robert Adam as a paradigm of the Georgian ideal in the centre of Edinburgh. A heady vision of sweeping crescents, broad boulevards and elegant squares, the New Town of Edinburgh offered wealthy citizens in the late 18th century a means of escape from the overcrowded tenements of the Old Town.
The Georgian House has been magnificently restored to show a typical Edinburgh New Town House of the late 18th-early 19th century. The fine collection of period furniture, porcelain, silver and glass, reflect the lifestyle and social and economic conditions of the time.
A beautiful setting for a variety of late afternoon and evening events
The Drawing Room, with its paintings and furniture and magnificent views over Charlotte Square, provides an elegant yet relaxing setting for drinks receptions for up to 70 guests. The remainder of the House can, by prior arrangement, be left open for guests to wander through at their leisure.
The Drawing Room can also be hired for intimate wedding ceremonies for up to 50 guests.
