Tower house oozes with charm

A HISTORIC seven bedroomed tower house at Collin has gone on the market for offers over £950,000.

Rockhall Tower is B listed and sits in 15 acres of landscaped grounds and woodland, including a 1000-year-old yew tree, a wedding stone from 1720 and a listed monument.

It has been run as a luxury B&B for several years, using four of the bedrooms and a detached log cabin, as well as offering bespoke weddings.

And sellers, Threave Rural, say it can be purchased as a business or would make a beautiful family home.

The property is reached via sandstone pillared gates and a sweeping driveway.

A grand central hallway features a seating area, wood-burning stove and impressive staircase, leading to a gallery landing.

The drawing room has a balcony with garden views, across to Criffel.

Five of the bedrooms are ensuite and the timber cabin is known as Souther Johnnies.

The team at Threave say: “The whole property oozes with charm and nostalgia.”
