The State Apartments have been painstakingly recreated
during recent restoration work and offer a fascinating insight into
the lives of the people who lived here. During the occupation of
Lord and Lady Argyll in the late 17th Century, the apartments comprised
three rooms: an outer chamber or drawing room, the couple's bed
chamber and Lady Argyll's closet.
In the drawing room there is a grand fireplace dating
from the 1630s and with traces of the family arms of the Earl of
Stirling still apparent. The walls are hung with fine tapestries
and the recreated furnishings are lavish.
