Ardkinglas House is a Category A listed country house on the Ardkinglas Estate in Argyll, Scotland.[1] The estate lies on the eastern shore of Loch Fyne, and the house is located close to the village of Cairndow. Dating back to the 14th century and originally a Campbell property, the estate now covers more than 12,000 acres (4,900 ha) of rolling hills and landscaped parkland. The centre of the estate was Ardkinglas Castle until this was replaced by a new house in the 18th century. This house was itself replaced by the present Ardkinglas House in the early 20th century, designed by Sir Robert Lorimer for Sir Andrew Noble.[1] It remains the property of the Noble family, and is open to the public on a limited basis. The woodland gardens are open all year round.[2]
