Lemlair House

[2] The lands of Lemlair were made into a barony direct from the Crown in 1643 for Colonel John Munro of Lemlair who was a leading supporter of the National Covenant and who opposed Charles I of England's church innovations.

[1] In 1738 the lands of Lemlair reverted to the chief of the Clan Munro and later went through a period of Mackenzie ownership when it was connected with the neighboring Mountgerald.

[1] The name "Lemlair" is thought to come from the Gaelic for "a bare place suitable for grazing horses".

The building features a Rennie Mackintosh tiled fireplace and mantelpiece, a snooker room, a tiled-floor veranda overlooking the firth, a tennis court, eight bedrooms, stained-glass windows and Munro clan features such as a fireplace depicting the famous eagle emblem.

The area boasts excellent fishing, shooting and stalking and countryside walks.
