The house is one of the finest stately homes in Scotland. The first phase of the house was built between 1696 and 1710, and then it was largely remodelled by William Adam in 1721-48. The house is surrounded by extensive grounds, with a deer park, wilderness areas and formal gardens.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;color: #000080\"><strong>Home to the Hopetoun family for over 300 years, the Earl of Hopetoun lives in the house and his father, the 4th Marquess of Linlithgow, lives on the estate.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_4774\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4774\" style=\"width: 1024px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/kirkcaldy\/files\/2023\/05\/IMG_2812c.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-4774\" src=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/kirkcaldy\/files\/2023\/05\/IMG_2812c.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"585\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/kirkcaldy\/files\/2023\/05\/IMG_2812c.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/sigbi.org\/kirkcaldy\/files\/2023\/05\/IMG_2812c-300x171.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-4774\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span style=\"color: #000080\"><strong><span style=\"font-size: 16px;font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif\">\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Down the Lime Walk to Hopetoun House<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_4772\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4772\" style=\"width: 605px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/kirkcaldy\/files\/2023\/05\/IMG_7989c.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-4772\" src=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/kirkcaldy\/files\/2023\/05\/IMG_7989c.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"605\" height=\"438\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/kirkcaldy\/files\/2023\/05\/IMG_7989c.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/sigbi.org\/kirkcaldy\/files\/2023\/05\/IMG_7989c-300x217.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 605px) 100vw, 605px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-4772\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span style=\"font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;color: #000080\"><strong><span style=\"font-size: 16px\">\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0The dining room<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000080\"><strong><span style=\"font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif\">\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_4773\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4773\" style=\"width: 671px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/kirkcaldy\/files\/2023\/05\/IMG_7995c.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-4773\" src=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/kirkcaldy\/files\/2023\/05\/IMG_7995c.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"671\" height=\"426\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/kirkcaldy\/files\/2023\/05\/IMG_7995c.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/sigbi.org\/kirkcaldy\/files\/2023\/05\/IMG_7995c-300x190.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 671px) 100vw, 671px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-4773\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px;font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;color: #000080\"><strong>\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 On the roof admiring the amazing view<\/strong><\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On Thursday 26 May seven members of SI Kirkcaldy went on the club&#8217;s annual outside&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":622,"featured_media":4774,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-4770","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Visit to Hopetoun House | News | Blog | Events | SI Kirkcaldy<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"SI Kirkcaldy : Blog &amp; News : Visit to Hopetoun House : Keep up to date with the latest news, articles and events from the Soroptimists of SI Kirkcaldy .
