Ardlamont House, Category B listed building in Kilfinan, Scotland

Ardlamont House features harled exterior walls, a piended slate roof on the main block, and single-storey wings with sloping gables along the coastline.

Major General John Lamont, the 19th chief of the Clan Lamont, commissioned the construction of Ardlamont House around 1820 in Georgian architectural style.

The estate contains a notable obelisk sundial in its gardens and represents the architectural preferences of Scottish nobility during the early nineteenth century.

The eight-bedroom property accommodates sixteen guests and provides access to 460 acres of natural woodland plus a private beach for outdoor activities.

The house gained notoriety in 1893 when it became the location of the Ardlamont murder, after which the estate was sold by the 21st clan chief.
