Mount Stuart
Mount Stuart is a Neo-Gothic country house with extensive gardens on the east coast of the Isle of Bute.
The house is the seat of the Stuarts of Bute and was designed by Sir Robert Rowand Anderson for the 3rd Marquess of Bute in the late 1870s, to replace an earlier house by Alexander McGill, which burnt down in 1877.
The house has a visitor center that takes you through the history of the family and estate.
