Scottish Ruins greeting cards - beautifully printed and designed to make an impression.
Calda House near Lairg creates a simple and distinctive greeting card design. The combination of historic ruins, calm water and open Highland scenery makes it suitable for a wide range of occasions, offering a peaceful and characterful image.
Calda House, a once magnificent Georgian mansion, graced the eastern shore of Loch Assynt in the Scottish Highlands. Constructed in 1726-27 by Kenneth MacKenzie of Assynt, the mansion aimed to provide comfort rather than defense, a departure from the cold and austere Ardvreck Castle nearby. This grand two-storey house with a double-gabled roof and a garden was a testament to opulence, but its lavishness led the family into debt.
Facing financial struggles, the MacKenzies were compelled to sell Calda House, sparking a fierce conflict with the Earl of Sutherland over control of Assynt. In 1737, loyal MacKenzie supporters took drastic action, setting the mansion ablaze to thwart its use by the Sutherlands. Tragically, the inferno reduced Calda House to ruins, and it was never rebuilt.
These greeting cards feature your chosen photographic design reproduced with clear detail and vibrant colour. Printed on high-quality card stock and carefully finished, they offer a simple and thoughtful way to share your chosen image with friends, family, or colleagues.
