Mount Stuart, Argyll and Bute

Located in Rothesay, Argyll and Bute, The Highlands & Islands, Scotland
Located on the Isle of Bute, on the west coast of Scotland, Mount Stuart is accessible just 70 minutes from Glasgow Airport and 20 minutes from Argyll mainland
Mount Stuart is a 19th century country manor house with extensive gardens on the Isle of Bute
Truly a house of firsts, we believe Mount Stuart was the first home in the world to have a heated indoor swimming pool, and the first in Scotland to be purpose built with electric light, central heating, a telephone system and a Victorian passenger lift. Most of which are, quite remarkably, still in use today
Mount Stuart is testament to generations of Stuart passion and flamboyance. Explore this wondrous gothic structure and its labyrinth of gardens and you cannot fail to be impressed
The house itself is arguably the finest piece of domestic architecture to emerge from Britain's Gothic Revival in the 19th Century. This lavish palace boasts a majestic marble hall, an awe-inspiring white marble chapel, sumptuous accommodation and unspeakably rich reception rooms
