Auchinleck House, Category B listed house in Minnigaff, Scotland
The residence stands in Dumfries and Galloway, featuring traditional Scottish architectural elements within its preserved structure and carefully maintained grounds.
After the decline of the Auchinleck male line in 1504, King James IV transferred the estate to Thomas Boswell following his marriage to Sir John Auchinleck's daughter.
The building reflects the architectural preferences of Scottish nobility during the 18th century, incorporating local construction methods and materials in its design.
The Landmark Trust manages the property, making it available for holiday stays while maintaining its historical features and offering tours to interested visitors.
The house served as accommodation for Polish, Canadian, and French army officers during World War II, adding an international chapter to its history.
