Linlithgow / BEFORE YOU ASK
Linlithgow Palace overlooks its grounds, known as the Peel, and Linlithgow Loch. The town’s heritage and waterside walks can form part of the day, but a visitor setting is different from a privately arranged meal.
If guests visit the palace or walk by the loch before gathering, identify where the meal will actually happen. Check the programme with the relevant organiser and leave time to reach the separate food venue instead of assuming access continues across bookings.
For a lawn or terrace occasion, ask which space belongs to the booking and what covered option is available. Confirm preparation facilities, water and the equipment route with the host, with detailed private arrival instructions agreed directly with your chosen supplier.
If the occasion begins with daytime refreshments and ends with an evening meal, list both guest counts and timings. Ask how staffing, tableware and clearing change between stages so suppliers can quote for the complete plan rather than only the main course.
Give the date, approximate guests, total budget, venue type and service window. Keep names, contact details, exact private addresses and named health information out of the shared brief.
