The Sir Arthur Conan Doyle Centre at 25 Palmerston Place is a listed building in a World Heritage Site. It is an impressive Victorian Townhouse which has been lovingly restored to its former glory. It provides a beautiful setting for all the activities of The Sir Arthur Conan Doyle Centre and the home of Edinburgh Association of Spiritualists.
It is conveniently located in the Heart of Edinburgh’s West End, just a stone throw away from Haymarket Railway Station and convenient for all local transport links. We are easily found, right next door to St Mary’s Cathedral.
We are keen to be a resource for the whole community and as such, we offer a range of room hire suitable for meetings, classes, private functions, etc, which can be hired by businesses, individuals and local community groups, etc.
Our beautiful Helen Duncan Room is the largest of our spaces and is an elegant drawing room with ornate Victorian features including cornicing and a fireplace.
The room measures 8.3 x 5.8 metres, some 48 square meters. It seats up to 70 people in Theatre-style, around 35 people in Boardroom-style and 30 people in cabaret-style and is a beautiful setting for private functions, weddings, meetings, seminars and as a training venue.
