Knockinaam Lodge
 Local Area
 |
|
Witness magnificent
sunsets which are a feature of this beautiful corner of south-west
Scotland. At the very water's edge, Knockinaam Lodge faces the ever
changing Irish Sea. On a fair day, Ireland can be glimpsed on the
horizon - and this remote location, sheltered by encircling cliffs,
helps to create a very special cosy atmosphere within the house. |
Knockinham
Lodge stands in 30 acres of gardens and woodland with immaculate lawns
running down to a private sandy beach. In such a tranquil setting, Sir
Winston Churchill met General Eisenhower and their Chiefs of Staff during
the Second World War. Featured in numerous magazines and newspapers, it
has the warmth and intimacy of a delightful little country inn.
This is the
country of John Buchan - the wild remote setting of "The 39 Steps"
- and if the hills and rugged coastline are more welcoming to todays
traveller, this is still amongst Scotland's loveliest regions. With
the Gulf stream to warm it, the country here is a habitat for flowers
and plants which are a surprise and delight. |
