Home of the Duke of Hamilton. Lennoxlove is a destination for weddings, private gatherings, events or as a base to explore Scotland.

Lennoxlove House was originally known as Lethington Tower, the house has existed since the 13th century. It was built to its full height in 1345 by the Maitland family, whose coat of arms still crowns the front door.

In 1946 the 14th Duke of Hamilton and his family took residence, bringing a collection of treasures from Hamilton Palace. Mary, Queen of Scots once visited Lennoxlove.

A history of Scotland and its protagonists is engagingly told through the celebrated art collection that adorn the rooms. See paintings by Van Dyke, Raeburn, Lely and Kneller and important artefacts from Mary, Queen of Scots, Charles II and Napoleon.
