Marchmont House is an imposing ‘Grade A’ listed Palladian mansion built in 1750 and contains some of the finest Georgian and Arts & Crafts interiors in Scotland. The goal is now to bring the house alive as ‘a home to Makers and Creators’, celebrating innovation, creativity and entrepreneurship. The house and grounds are only open to the public for a limited number of days each year, for tours and special events.
