Historic Hotel
Originally built in 1874, this Victorian estate belonged to a wealthy Scottish businessman. The estate has been purchased by Maggie and Bruce Urquhart, who have owned it for about 22 years now. After long and time-consuming restorations, the estate was opened as a 4-star boutique hotel, retaining as much of its Victorian grandeur and opulence as possible, in order to offer a unique accommodation experience to all guests.
