Description

Culgruff House Hotel is an asymmetrical Baronial-style mansion built in 1889 by Charles William Stephens. The building is constructed from bull-faced red ashlar with polished margins and dressings. It has two storeys with attics and features a tall square water tower on the west side. The entrance front is designed in a butterfly shape, with projecting angled gabled bays flanking an off-centre gable that contains a centrally placed round-arched entrance leading to a conservatory or porch. The door is hood moulded and bull-nose chamfered, inscribed with "God's providence is mine inheritance" and dated 1889, and it opens as a double-leaf panelled door. Above the porch is a projecting canted oriel window, and to the left, there is a two-storey projecting window in the angled bay.

On the south elevation, there are three four-centred-arch pendants at the eaves, with embattled parapets connecting the terminal gables. To the left, two large full-height canted bay windows are present, and at the extreme left is the four-stage water tower, also featuring an embattled parapet. All bay and oriel windows have embattled parapets.

The windows throughout the building are mullioned and transomed, fitted with single-pane plate glass glazing. The roofs are steeply pitched and covered with slate, and there are corniced axial stacks. The rear elevation mainly consists of bipartite windows, with a fire escape located on the west gable.

Inside, the hotel boasts well-preserved woodwork on doors, shutters, and panelling. The drawing room features a strapwork plaster ceiling.
