Every room takes its palette from Scotland's 19th-century landscape painters: the deep greens of highland glens, golden-brown moorland grasses, and soft mountain greys. Rich tweeds, warm woods, and luxurious linens bring that landscape indoors. It is Scotland's natural character translated into a contemporary, restful setting.
