It is a truly prestige model and will enhance any room. Rannoch Castle is made of wood and wood veneer, with card for the intricate plasterwork, and has an integrated stand, the whole being 167cm (66) tall, 89cm (35) wide and 71cm (28) deep.
On the outside, which is harled (pebble-dashed), you will notice the windows deep set into the thick walls, the ornate oriel window to the hall, the staircase tower and the corbelling out to create a complete walkway at rooftop level. The roof is of individual slates and the staircase tower is topped with a flagpole.
The main access to the four-storey interior is via two hinged doors, but the roof sections also lift off and there are a number of small pull-out panels to access smaller spaces. The spiral stone staircase has doors opening off it at each level and culminates in a ladder leading up to the rooftop platform. The ground floor is taken up by the kitchen and pantry, with stone flag floors, vaulted ceilings and a service stair to the first floor concealed within the thickness of the wall. The hall above has a large fireplace with coat of arms, panelling to waist height and ornate plasterwork above that and on the vaulted ceiling. A musicians' gallery overlooks one end and hidden in the panelling is a secret compartment.
The floor is of timber boards, as are those throughout the rest of the castle, and all rooms except the pantry have fireplaces. On the next floor is the principal bedroom, again panelled and with an ornate plaster ceiling and also with a Victorian loo in the thickness of the wall. Next door to it is the study, accessed through an archway, with built-in bookcases in Gothic style and a corner fireplace. Finally, on the attic floor there is a panelled corridor leading to two further bedrooms, one a childs, panelled to waist height, and the other for servants.
