The Coach House, The Smiddy and The Stables form, as the names suggest, part of the former coach house to Arden House, a magnificent Scots Baronial mansion by architect John Burnet who it is thought also designed the coach house and stables. It is thought that Arden House and its coach house and stables date from around 1867-1868 when Sir James Lumsden, the recently knighted Lord Provost of Glasgow, acquired the estate and commissioned the renowned John Burnet.

The building as a whole is B Listed and has a distinctly Scottish flavour with its slate roof, blonde sandstone and turret. It was converted in 2004 and now has 5 properties in total.

The properties are presently run as a successful holiday lettings business; please contact our office for further information. The properties further benefit from having access to the jetty at Jetty lodge for launching boats on to Loch Lomond.
