Ross Priory, Category A listed country house on the south shore of Loch Lomond, Scotland.
Ross Priory features Gothic architecture with stone walls, pointed windows, and decorative elements overlooking the waters of Loch Lomond and surrounding hills.
Built in 1816 by architect James Gillespie Graham, the estate belonged to the Buchanan family until 1925 before becoming a Strathclyde University property in 1971.
Sir Walter Scott gathered material for his novels 'The Lady of the Lake' and 'Rob Roy' while staying at Ross Priory as a guest.
The property contains 10 guest rooms with private bathrooms, meeting facilities in the Carnegie Room, and a 9-hole golf course across 173 acres of land.
A curse from 1715 predicted the end of the male Buchanan lineage at Ross Priory, which came true in 1925 when the family line ended.
