About Mansfield Traquair Edinburgh
Walking into Mansfield Traquair for the first time stops people in their tracks - we see it happen every day. The vast murals by 19th-century artist Phoebe Anna Traquair cover our walls and ceiling, creating an atmosphere that earned us the nickname 'Edinburgh's Sistine Chapel.' We're right in the heart of the city, housed in a former church that we've carefully restored to showcase these incredible artworks alongside modern event capabilities. Our main nave transforms beautifully for different occasions. We can welcome up to 700 guests for drinks receptions, where people naturally spread throughout the space, admiring the murals while they mingle. For seated dinners, we accommodate 350 guests comfortably, with round tables arranged beneath the painted ceiling. Behind the building, our private garden provides a peaceful contrast to the dramatic interior - perfect for summer drinks or extending your celebration with a marquee. As part of Heritage Portfolio, we bring their creative approach to every event we host. Our team handles everything from innovative menu planning to coordinating the technical aspects of your celebration. The building comes equipped with contemporary lighting systems that highlight the historic features while creating the right mood for your party. We've hosted wedding receptions where couples exchange vows beneath Traquair's angels, corporate celebrations that use the murals as conversation starters, and milestone birthday parties where the space itself becomes part of the entertainment. Getting here couldn't be easier - we're centrally located with excellent public transport links, so your guests can arrive without hassle. Whether you're planning an intimate gathering that uses just part of our space or a grand celebration that fills the entire venue, we work with you to make the most of this extraordinary building.
