Lothian House

This 22,000 sq. ft countryside architectural wonder boasts uninterrupted views of Lothian’s vineyards, orchards, the private Applethwaite Lake, Palmiet River and the mesmerising Elgin valley mountain-scape.

Boasting 8 double en-suite bedrooms, each with private terraces, Lothian House can comfortably accommodate 16 people. Guests are invited to congregate together in a variety of unique spaces: from the summer and winter lounges to the formal lounge and dining room, which run the length of this glass-encased mansion.

The beauty of Lothian House, is a balance of contemporary design and a welcoming space for both adults and children alike. Whilst the space boasts a modern use of glass, colour, natural elements and lighting, reflecting at every angle on the all-encompassing bodies of water surrounding the house, it also offers a dream of activities for children from indoor and outdoor play areas, games to water sports on the private lake and river.
