| Minard Castle
Loch Fyne, Argyll, Scotland
Built by the Campbells of Knockbuie in the eighteenth century, Knockbuie House was renamed Minard Castle in the mid-nineteenth century, when a new castellated front was added, designed by J.T. Rochead whose works include the Wallace Monument near Stirling. From 1873 until the nineteen forties it belonged to the Lloyds, who were related to the former Campbell owners. The estate was then sold to the Forestry Commission, who sold the house to the Holiday Fellowship. Later it became a hotel for a few years, before it was bought by the present owner's father in 1974. In 1997 Reinold and Marion Gayre began offering bed & breakfast in Minard Castle. Guests are invited to share the peace and beauty of this idyllic spot beside Loch Fyne.
