    House Callendar took on many great historical figures throughout the ages, including Mary, the Queen of Scots, and Cromwell. The house dates from the 14th century. In the restored “Kitchen of 1825”, costumed translators create an exciting interactive experience with food samples from the early 19th century, adding a taste to the stories of working life in a big house.
    There are many interesting historical features in forests and gardens, including Aboretum, decorative gardens and the family Mausoleum. There are also three golf courses on the territory.

    The house was built in 1761, but the roof in the form of pineapple Earl Dunmore built in 1777, after returning from the British colonies in North America. Because there he tried pineapples for the first time and was so delighted with the taste of this fruit that he decided to perpetuate his love for pineapples in his family estate. Currently, the house-pineapple is protected by the government.
