Description

Experience the historic Scottish Borders at Whitmuir House, located on a picturesque 450-acre farm, and envision what life was like in the Middle Ages!  Poke around the ruins of abbeys, border keeps, and Jacobean and Adam mansions nearby.  Tour 18th and 19th century gardens and play golf on some of Scotland's most scenic courses.   If you are interested in playing courses such as Muirfield, about 1 ½ hours away,  that need an introduction, Trustee Dick Fates ’63 will help get you access (winning bidder to pay greens fees). Visit Edinburgh, the capital of Scotland, just 45 miles away. This two bedroom cottage can sleep five to six, has one and a half baths, and the use of a croquet lawn.  

This is a Live Event Item.
