Built in 1857-8 for the paper tycoon James Couper, Holmwood House has been described as Alexander "Greek" Thomson's finest domestic design. Glasgow's other great architect (beside Charles Rennie Mackintosh) has become hugely popular in recent years. Holmwood is a typically picturesque adaptation of the classical Greek style, and visitors can observe the ongoing conservation work on recently discovered stencilled decoration. Groups must book in advance and an audio tour is available for French and German speakers.
