History and Heritage

The Mercers of Perth, merchants of early medieval French origin, acquired the barony Meikleour in 1162. The estate has unique French connections, through trade, wars, and marriages: from exile to France during the Jacobite rising to exile to Scotland during the French Revolution, with intimate links to the Napoleonic family. Even today, the current estate custodians have both nationalities. Our bedroom names (Flahaut, Hortense, Lansdowne…), the paintings, and old photos in the Inn all have a story to tell. We hope you will enjoy this journey between past and present.
