| In 1900 the architect Ch. R. Mackintosh
prepared drawings for a 'dream hous'. These drawings were for a
house that Mackintosh would probably have liked to build for himself
and his wife.
The plans show no fewer than ten chimneys on prominent vertical
stacks, which contrast with the battered (converging vertical) walls
of the house. The house has strong sculptural presence in the highlands.
Situated in spectacular countryside just south of Inverness.
The Mackintosh theme is no mere cosmetic in the house, and has been
carried through in the interior design. Classic white painted walls
and complete Mackintosh interior for the dining hall.
The estate is situated in beautiful countryside just 7 miles south
of Loch Ness and Inverness (the capital of the Highlands). Its central
position in the middle of the Highlands is an ideal place from which
to discover the beauty of the highlands of Scotland. Nearby are
over 20 golf courses, fishing facilities and hill walking, bird
watching, skiing, hunting and sightseeing opportunities.
