The ten individually decorated and
furnished bedrooms all have ensuite facilities, colour television
and tea and coffee making facilities. Most command uninterrupted
and quite unsurpassed views over the 1600 acre parkland grounds,
described by The National Trust for Scotland as a "gem of
outstanding beauty", and beyond a kaleidoscope of spectacular
scenery of hills, moorland, lochs, burns and woods comprising
the Endrick valley and the Campsie Fells above.
The Baron's Suite,
originally the private quarters of the barons of Culcreuch in
the 18th and 19th centuries, occupies pride of place in the castle
and has a four poster bed among its many luxury furnishings.
The Chinese Bird Room (above) takes its name from the handpainted
chinese wallpaper brought here in 1723, believed to be one of
the only original examples of this fine craftsmanship remaining
in Scotland. |
