Cromlix House is a Victorian mansion near Kinbuck, Perthshire. A house was built on the site in 1874 as a family residence in the time of Captain Arthur Drummond Hay, but was destroyed by fire in 1878. It was replaced in 1880 by the house which forms the nucleus of the present building, and was subsequently operated as a hotel. The hotel closed in 2011 and in early 2013 it was bought by tennis player Andy Murray. The hotel re-opened in April 2014 under the name CROMLIX, managed by ( Inverlochy Castle Management International (ICMI). ) There are records of Cromlix from the 1500s when the Bishop of Dunblane sold the lands of Cromlix to his brother, Robert Chisholm. The present house was built for Arthur Hay-Drummond, son of the Earl of Kinnoul. King Edward VII visited in September 1908.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.sothebys.com/it/auctions/ecatalogue/2009/fine-furniture-tapestries-ceramics-clocks-silver-carpets-l09765/lot.104.html )〕 The house remained a family home for the Hay-Drummonds until the death of Evelyn Hay-Drummond in 1971,〔http://www.primelocation.com/uk-property-for-sale/details/id/SAED_327713/#ixzz25F7DGfmt〕 who had married Terence Eden (8th Lord Auckland).〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.cromlix.com/history/ )〕 Cromlix House was converted in May 1981 from what was the Eden family home, and retained much of the original furniture designed for the house as well as the family portraits.
