Cheap Wedding Venue near Glasgow Wanted!

Hi Everyone,
We are looking to get married in August next year, we have approx 70 guests for the full day and additional 20 in the evening.
Ideally we'd like somewhere where we can have the ceremony, reception and accommodation all in the same place.
We don't really want to get married in a large hotel or somewhere that may take over from the personal element of the wedding.
We would love somewhere with a beautiful view like Loch Lomond, as that is one of the reasons we live in Scotland.
Any ideas would be a great help, or any advice on how to haggle with venues to get a good deal.
We are happy to marry on a Sunday or any other day to keep costs low.
We are paying for it ourselves, so ideally would like the whole thing (excluding outfits) to cost no more than £6000.
Thanks

I attended a really nice wedding here
http://www.macdonaldhotels.co.uk/our-hotels/macdonald-forest-hills-hotel-spa/
and the numbers sound similar.
No idea about the cost tho?0 -
macdonald hotels are lovely, but I'm pretty sure they're quite expensive, at least the one here in Bath is!Officially saved enough to cover the cost of our wedding! :A0

We're getting married at Culcreuch Castle in Fintry, I thought it would have been way out of my price range but they are actually very reasonable
The Castle and surrounding areas are just beautiful!
P.S It also has a loch!0 -
Thank you, I have emailed them both for quotes so we'll see what they come back with.
