Abandoned Hotel - SCOTLAND

Exploring an abandoned hotel with over 300 rooms with ‪@urbexoutlaws‬

[@Carol......]

That place was *mahoosive* !! This beautiful house has been everything from a private home to a hotel and boarding school run by nuns !! Sadly the person who this house was built for lost 4 of his sons in the 2nd world war. Can you imagine how utterly heartbreaking that must have been. Loved this explore and loved your editing to put the old photos in of last time Alec 💕 I like Rab too, seems a really nice bloke, wondering if he has own channel too. Such a shame the roof coming down in parts because rest of it is immaculate, it's soooo nice to see a place not vandalised for once 🙂 I love love love drone footage, gives you a whole new perspective on a building 👍Thanks for the tour guys, take care x

[@alisonmoxon7519]

Great explore Alec.. loved it a proper maze.. so typical of the lochs and glens hotels we've stayed in.. shame left abandoned.. it will soon go into disrepair with the collapsed ceilings.. loved the pics and drone footage.. thanks again.. Ali .👍

[@CatsCoffeeCrime]

Nice explore Alec. Good seeing you again. The end photos with the sun setting over the back of the hotel were great. 👍🏻😊

[@evelyngallacher6315]

Awesome explore Alec. What a beautiful building. I hope it will be repaired before the water damage gets any worse. Well done and stunning photos as always.

[@williamsherman6995]

4:17 "There's not much change in here" LOL !!!!

[@clairefunnell8481]

I remember this beauty after I saw the pool. Not bad a condition. I'm very glad to see no vandalism here. I take it nothing has happened with it? Too bad. It's so nice. Great pics and re explore. 👌

[@38410000]

Very respectful and thorough touring of this (recently abandoned?) facility. Good job, y'all!

[@jamesloughrey1653]

I actually spent a few days attending a conference at Kild....House in the 1980s (organised by BAe at Prestwick Airport). The wood clad conference room was stunning. Such a shame to see it unused.

[@lorriesouthall7866]

This place is huge! But it’s in wonderful condition, very convenient. But each turn you guys took, I got lost. Ty so much for the great tour and video. Tc Alec, catch ya in the next one.

[@TalkTalk44]

A shame when nature takes over as she usually does.A wonderful hotel ,the chimney stacks are huge. Many happy days in this building when it was a 🛏️ hotel..Thank you Alex for the tour.😊🏡

What an amazing place. How did none ever find their way around? It is vast! Yu could house an army in there and have room left over. I am amazed the place hasn't been looted but with the power still on you could take up residence!

It looks very much like Scotland’s answer to the overlook hotel ( The Shining ) the Jack Nicholson 1970s cult classic.

[@ExploringwithAlec]

That's its code name lol

[@janenalubegapleasedecayres8434]

Guys thanks 👍 alot naye nga it's risky. Really some people there just extravagant how could you abandoned such a property. I'm begging government to restore that property for homeless people or orphanage. Because billion and billions of money are rotten. If it's about taxes just for give him or her l mean the owner.

[@ormsk954]

They would not put immigrants in this hotel because its not good enough.

[@colbycrawford8969]

It’s so lousy how they filled in most of the fireplaces. I hate when they do that. If they redid the roof and fixed the plaster it would be a really nice place. It’s a massive house.

[@lesleydevlin3656]

Such a lovely hotel left to rot such a shame immaculate and clean

[@wayneparkinson4558]

I would say thats not been long closed a perfect opputunity to bring back to life

[@nigelperkins1317]

Wonderful place

[@eavesdroppin1]

With the exception of the staircases, wood paneling, doors and moldings, the inside of this beautiful building is pretty dismal. Evidently it had been 'redecorated' in 1980's bland. The rooms were not horrible, but I guess I just expected more. What really stands out are the hideous puffy leather sofas in that one room! Likely the worst style I have ever seen. Makes me nauseous just to think about them.

[@jamesbridges2264]

My uncle ran and lived there 4 a good couple of years. We had a couple of holidays up there. And still no the person that it belongs to.

There's been reports of a caretaker on site according to the buildings at risk register for years and a car parked up outside but when I visited I saw no sign of anyone and given the fact the poster was able to walk through the building unmolested, seems like the caretaker may not be around 24/7

[@sar4madness]

This place is in no way abandoned! I find it very disrespectful that you would intrude on someone’s home. Since you videoed there has been so much vandalism and police are involved. Would you enjoy someone entering your private home?

[@davidmiddleton2005]

This isn’t acceptable at all. I have seen a few videos from the channel go the same way. Making it obvious where they are isn’t acceptable and entering places clearly not abandoned and putting them on KZbin isn’t acceptable. 3 minutes on google makes it obvious the building has a known owner and the grounds are maintained when they turned up

[@sar4madness]

It’s becoming a weekly thing with the police and dog units at this house. And yet this person thinks it’s acceptable to encourage people on social media to go.

A striking modern mansion, reminiscent of work of Sir Edwin Lutyens. (Historic Scotland) Euan Wallace MP inherited the estate on condition that he made it his home. He employed Miller to design this enormous house in English Manorial Revival style, complete with a theatre and indoor tennis courts. Kildonan was ready for occupation by 1923, the world it was designed for had all but vanished and the interiors were never completed. (Rob Close) Euan Wallace's second wife, Barbara Lutyens, was the daughter of architect Sir Edwin Lutyens.Building Dates1914-1923ArchitectsJames Miller Category of Risk and Development History ConditionFairCategory of RiskLowExemptions to State of RiskField Visits26/11/2009, 19/04/2012, 17/9/2014Development HistoryJune 2009: Nominated for inclusion by a member of the public. In operation as 3 individual self catering holiday apartments for a number of years. Member of the public is concerned that the property currently has no resident caretaker and is infrequently occupied and does not feel external maintenance has been carried out for number of years (there are a considerable number of missing and broken slates, advanced corrosion to steel casement windows and there are a few sizeable tree saplings growing from chimney stacks). Project Officer visited the building in July 2008 during the A-list survey and found no immediate cause for concern at that time. Set to For Investigation.November 2009: During site visit the property was viewed from drive (to the south of the house). The building appears to be in an acceptable state of repair. Agree with local planner to monitor the building. Set to ALERT.19 April 2012: External inspection finds that a level of maintenance is being undertaken, but the building shows no signs of use. Local planners advise they have been in contact with the owners regarding some recent changes to the building. The house is advised as disused at this time, with a caretaker in residence. Moved to At Risk.17 September 2014: External inspection finds no significant change from the previous site visit. The surrounding grounds are maintained, basic maintenance appears to have been carried out on the house, which remains disused but with a caretaker on site.5 January 2018: A member of the public advises the property appears to remain disused.
