House of Falkland

The house has been designed in the 19th-century revival of late 16th and early 17th-century Elizabethan and Jacobean styles called Jacobethan.

[1] This was the home of Fairny family, rangers of the Lomond Hills,[2] and by 1604 a residence of the courtier and keeper of Falkland Palace, David Murray of Gospertie.

In 1887, John Patrick Crichton-Stuart, third marques of Bute, purchased the House of Falkland estate.

Between 1890 and 1900, the third marquess employed the architects Robert Weir Schultz and William Frame to remodel the inside, and change the landscape around the house.

Due to the size of the house, the Crichton-Stuart family decided to move to Falkland palace in 1944,[5] where they still reside up to this day.
