Struan and Frances Erskine

Enjoy the personal touch of a family who relish sharing their historic home. Arriving as guests, leaving as friends, couples, families, and larger groups are all enticed back year after year to unwind in the informal, restful atmosphere that makes Cambo so special.

Struan and his wife Frances were married in 2012 and moved back to the estate to take the reins from Sir Peter and Lady Erskine at the end of 2014. They are looking forward to the challenges and responsibility of continuing to manage the family estate in a sustainable and socially conscious way.

Cambo House is an impressive Victorian mansion house, built in 1881, that lies at the heart of a 1200 acre estate in one of the most unspoiled areas of Scotland.
