Tower of Glenstrae

 

Rooms
Things to do

The Tower of Glenstrae was built in 1895 as gentleman's residence, by Major Grieg of Edinburgh.   Built in the Scottish Baronial Style, it included many state of the art features of the time, such as bathrooms and electricity. Thankfully, the electric bells are no longer connected, or we would be literally 'buzzing around'.  The interior of the house is heavily influenced by the Arts and Crafts movement.  There are many antiques, in particular Art Nouveau style, of which we are very fond.

The grounds are very mature, with fine examples of Scots Pine Trees.  In May and June the gardens explode into a riot of colour, with the azaleas and rhododendrons in bloom.

We are ideally situated for walking, fishing, climbing, cycling, stalking and touring the islands.

Julia & Nick Disney run their home as a bed & breakfast, during the summer, providing high quality accommodation at an affordable price.

It is a unique place to stay, just right for a special occasion, or even just to treat yourselves, for a change.  Our guests always remark how 'homely' it feels, all the rooms are individually decorated to reflect their 'personalities'.  Most of the bedrooms overlook the Loch and castle ruins, sometimes we need to do a little pruning in the summer as the foliage occasionally obscures the castle.
