Elegant Victorian Event Location
San Rafael- in the Heart of Marin
From the moment you drive up the spectacular circular driveway
through the lush gardens of Falkirk, you know this is the perfect
place for your event. Falkirk, a national Historic place, is centrally
located in San Rafael. Just minutes north of the Golden Gate, Falkirk
is the ideal place for weddings, parties, meetings, and retreats. The
eleven wooded acres that surround the house add more charm to your
special occasion.
The Queen Anne Victorian was built in 1888 and captures the
spirit of early California. Its picturesque roof line of gables,
chimneys and bays add magnificent decorative details that enhance its
charm and create an unmatched aura for your gathering.
In 1974 the City of San Rafael acquired the estate from the Robert
Dollar family and now operates it as a cultural center and historic
site with tours. The house and grounds are available for receptions,
weddings and business meetings.
A Century of Charm!
Falkirk provides a unique and elegant setting for any event.
The rooms are crowned by radiant coffered ceilings and adorned
with rich redwood paneling. The first floor has highly decorative
fireplaces and floor to ceiling stained glass windows.
The house offers an open, yet intimate, floor plan. The interior
can accommodate up to 100 people, and during warm weather up to 125
people with the use the exquisite veranda shaded by a wisteria covered
oak tree.
