Bowhill House

It is a member of the Historic Houses Association, and is one of the homes of the Duke of Buccleuch.

In 1767, Henry, the third Duke, started to plant forests in the grounds, and in 1800, the 4th Duke Charles started to revamp what was an occasional summer house and turned it into a villa with gallery hall.

The Buccleagh art collection was created as Charles and Elizabeth brought together the three family heritages of Montagu, Douglas and Scott.

The collection has been gathered over 600 years and it includes 1,000 miniatures and 500 paintings as well as objets d'art.

[3] The whole collection is exhibited at three locations: Bowhill, Drumlanrig Castle and Boughton House.
