Strathblane Country House
Strathblane Country House is a late Victorian estate house near the village of Strathblane. It was built in 1874 as a mansion house for Robert Jameson of the law firm Jameson, Maclae & Baird.
Back then the building was known as Ardunan House, taking its name from nearby Loch Ardinning. The former gatekeeper's lodge, Ardunan Lodge, and Ardunan Farm still bear the name 'Ardunan'.
Much later it was converted into an hotel, initially known as the Ardunan Hotel until the company's dissolution in 1977, then as The Country Club Hotel, Strathblane Country House Hotel and latterly Strathblane Country House.
It has hosted a number of celebrity events over the years including the wedding of Peter Capaldi and Elaine Collins in 1991 and several episodes of River City.
