Hill of Tarvit's Guided Tour

In this 70 minute guided tour you will discover stories about the people who lived at the Mansion and their collection. Hill of Tarvit Mansion is a traditional Edwardian House, set in the foothills near Cupar. Frederick Sharp purchased the estate (at that time known as Wemysshall) from a branch of the Wemyss family, who had owned it since around 1690. Sharp immediately commissioned the leading Scottish architect Robert Lorimer to rebuild the 17th-century house and create the fine mansion you see today in order to showcase his impressive collection fine art and furniture.
