Bird in the Hand hotel, Elderslie, Scotland

[Melorac]

Ok so this is the first time I have completed a thread so if could all go horribly wrong.

The house of the last Laird of Johnstone was converted into a hotel. However, it was burned down in late 2005 and has been left to fall to bits ever since.

The site was boarded up at one point however looks like someone previous must have forgot their keys.

Entered into the reception area, went no further as it was pretty burnt out, that and it smells like a toilet in there.

Back of the building, not so fire damaged, thought not sure where those stairs were intended to go!!

Feature room with view of the sky costs extra of course

Just don't build em like they used too
