The house was originally a tiny cottage on the edge of a sea loch at Kilcreggan. Overhauled and extended by Glasgow based, award winning architects Cameron Webster it is now known locally as the James Bond house!
The walls are adorned with paintings by local artist Eleanor Carlingford. Her beautiful, arresting artworks are perfect for the scale of this house and complement rather than fight with the stunning scenery that it is drenched in.

Sea” one of my own favourites. The Autumn now is bringing on the big push towards a solo show. Let me have your address for invites.
all the best
