Mrs Sykes invites you into her home and that of Annie Laurie, the heroine of 'the world's greatest love-song', where she lived with her husband Alexander Fergusson in the early 1700's.
The earliest records of Craigdarroch date to the 14th century but the William Adams building was completed in 1729. Craigdarroch remained in the Fergusson family from the 14th century until 1925.
