Monteviot House, 18th century country house in Scottish Borders, United Kingdom.
Monteviot House stands on elevated ground above River Teviot, featuring symmetrical wings and architectural elements from both 1740 and 1830 construction periods.
The property transformed from its initial form as a lodge constructed by the First Marquis of Lothian into a substantial residence through extensions in 1830.
The residence holds a connection to Jean Elliot, who composed the words to the Scottish lament 'Flowers of the Forest' and spent her final days here.
The gardens welcome visitors from April through October between 12:00 and 17:00, with house tours available on selected days during July.
The grounds include thirty acres of specialized gardens, including the Garden of Persistent Imagination and an arboretum near the Roman road Dere Street.
