Description
The Tullichewan Hotel, located on Balloch Road in Balloch, was built in 1893 and has undergone modern alterations and additions. This two-storey, three-bay villa is designed in the Arts and Crafts style with a rectangular plan. The ground floor is painted render, while the upper floor is hung with red tiles. The gabled sections feature mock half-timbering with bracketed gables.
On the main elevation, the three bays are grouped towards the center, with modern additions at the ground level. There is a lean-to projection at the center of the ground floor, topped by a square bipartite dormer. Flanking the center are narrow gabled bays, and to the right is a tripartite entrance with a modern canopy, along with a tripartite window above. A modern flat-roofed addition is located at the outer right. The left bay has a modern window at the ground level and a tripartite window on the first floor.
The side elevation features a broad gable with a canted window at the center and narrow windows on either side. The attic in the gable is half-timbered, with shallow curved oriels at the upper stage and a half-timbered gablehead.
The other side elevation has a broad gable on the outer left, with a blocked pilastered and corniced door at the ground level to the left and a bipartite window to the right. There are two shallow oriels at the upper stage and a jettied gablehead. To the right is a lower, slightly recessed, five-bay gabled wing with windows at the ground level, a modern center door, and symmetrically arranged oriels on the first floor.
The windows throughout include 12-pane timber sash and case, 6-pane over plate glass timber sash and case, and multi-paned fixed windows. The roof is red tiled with terracotta ridge tiles, and there is a tall ridge stack with red tiled terracotta corniced caps.
