200 Years in the Making

OUR STORY

Cameron House is delighted to unveil a year-long programme of events, experiences and initiatives to celebrate our 200th anniversary.

Whilst the luxury property opened as a hotel in 1990, the baronial estate’s fascinating history dates back to the 15^th century. It was in 1823, however, under the ownership of the Smolletts, a local family of shipbuilders and artists, when plans were finalised for extensive renovations to take place, that would transform the home into a grand baronial mansion, known today as Cameron House hotel.

In two centuries, the resort has been remodelled by esteemed architect William Spencer in 1865, has been visited by literary greats and political stalwarts including Empress Eugenie and Sir Winston Churchill in the 1900s and was once a popular tourist attraction and bear park in the 70s, before Cameron House hotel officially opened in 1990.
