Sandhill House

Image: © Alan Gerrard Taken: 2 Sep 2008

Built by the Duke of Portland in 1890 as a dower house, which the Collins concise dictionary says, is a house for the use of a widow, often on her deceased husband’s estate. Sandhill House is set in 9 acres of grounds, with sea views over the Royal Troon golf course. Now it is a very nice B&B.
