Description
Lonan House is a B Listed country house built in 1906, designed by the renowned Scottish architect Sir Robert Lorimer. In its lifetime, the house has been a private home, a hotel and latterly self-catering apartments. The current owners have undertaken a comprehensive restoration project to renovate the accommodation whilst maintaining the character of the building and the surrounding 28 acres of gardens and woodland.
In its current configuration, Lonan House is divided into six luxury self-catering apartments plus a self-contained one bedroom annexe and spacious owner’s accommodation, all over three levels.
On the ground floor there is a one bedroom apartment and a two bedroom apartment, both with sitting room, bedroom, shower room and kitchen. The owners’ accommodation comprises a welcoming entrance hallway leading to a dining kitchen, with large kitchen island and a range of storage and in-built high spec appliances. There is a conservatory off the kitchen, with access to the patio area and grounds. A large sitting room has windows on two sides and there is a separate study. Upstairs the owners’ accommodation continues with four large double bedrooms located around an airy, spacious hallway with archways off. A shower room and main bathroom complete this area.
The first floor accommodation continues with a further three apartments - two one bedroom apartments with shower room, kitchen and sitting room; and a two bedroom apartment with open plan kitchen/lounge and separate shower room. From here there is access to the second floor which hosts another two bedroom apartment with sitting room, dining room, shower room and kitchen.

Lonan House enjoys a glorious Scottish setting with stunning views to Ben Cruachan, Argyll’s highest mountain and Ben Starav.
Designed by Sir Robert Lorimer and built in 1906, this impressive Edwardian mansion is full of romantic highland character and retains many of its original Arts & Crafts features. There is a large surrounding landscaped garden, complete with croquet lawn and pond, extended grounds and woodland which give a wonderful sense of space and freedom. Deer are often seen grazing around the house and this magical spot is home to amazing wildlife including red squirrels, otters and pine marten. Keen birdwatchers will delight at the huge variety of birds including the chance to see golden and white-tailed sea eagles or the beautiful black grouse.
