Carnoch Outdoor Centre, Glencoe

The Carnoch Outdoor Centre, also known as Carnoch House, is an 1890s building constructed in the English Arts and Crafts style. It is a two-storey, L-shaped house with a prominent south-facing entrance front and a west-facing garden elevation. A taller room, extending to two storeys, was added later to the north gable. The exterior is largely harled, with tooled ashlar dressings and timber-frame detailing to the gablets. A projecting gabled bay is located on the southwest side, featuring a deep, ground-floor canted bay window. An entrance porch is set into the re-entrant angle. The west-facing garden front has two bays, with a screened garden entrance from the sitting room, protected by a slated verandah supported by rustic wooden columns. A ground floor canted bay window is on the right. A tall, glazed canted window, rising the full height of the building and breaking the wallhead, provides a further garden entrance in the west front of the later wing. First-floor windows break the eaves with gablet detailing. The building has multi-pane glazing, coped end and wallhead stacks, and a slate roof with projecting eaves and a red tile ridge.

Inside, the building features an inner hall with a staircase having turned wooden balusters. The sitting and dining rooms have simple decorative plaster cornices, and the original chimney pieces are simple in design. The building was formerly used as a guest house for Glencoe House and subsequently the Glencoe Hospital.
