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.
