A ‘Must Visit’ for Rennie Mackintosh fans

Charles Renee Mackintosh

If you are a fan of Rennie Mackintosh, the Scottish architect, designer and artist, then a visit to the Hill House in Helensburgh is a must during your stay at Rhumhor on Loch Goil.

The Glasgow born Mackintosh is known around the world as one of the most creative figures of the 20th century.  His designs are seen in everything from buildings, to jewellery to clothes and even china.  One of his architectural highlights is the Glasgow School of Art, while on a hillside in Helensburgh in Argyll sits what is know as his finest domestic creation ‘The Hill House.’

The famous designer created not only the house itself but also most of the rooms, furniture and other fixtures.  This is an essential day out for anyone that loves the Mackintosh style and it is open to the public from April right through until the end of October.
