Alternatively, simply rest, refresh, and stay in the quiet comfort of your very own home from home, reclining on the terrace in summer, cold beer in hand, as the barbecue sizzles, or relaxing by the wood burner in winter, enjoying a glass (or two) of usquebaugh (the water of life), better known the world over as Scotch, the spirit of Scotland.
This stately old lady has lost none of her warmth and allure in 164 years, and will seduce you with her much understated elegance and charm, as much in evidence to-day as ever it was, if not now indeed enhanced by the careful and sympathetic embedding of all the technical services and facilities necessary to sustain life in the fast lane of the 21st century.
