Property Description
Designed by a son of Glasgow, and one the worlds foremost architects of his era, William Leiper, in the late 19th century, Cairndhu House is widely considered as the ultimate example of Leiper's Franco Scottish style. Cairndhu has been a stately residence for The Lord Provost of Glasgow, then Baron Strathclyde, a war time era Navy headquarters, luxury hotel and even a much loved nursing home.
The original house consists of a mixture of coursed grey sandstone and cream ashlar sandstone with decorative cornices and frieze to the south elevation in keeping with the French Renaissance style exterior.
