It would scarcely be possible to imagine a more picturesque site than that on which Blanerne house is situated. Encircled by smooth-shaven lawns and shady forest trees, it is approached by a carriage drive winding up a gentle slope. The Whitadder, like a silver ribbon, flows through the meadow below, and in the distance is the dim blue vista of the Lammermoor Hills. Truly a beautiful spot, brimful of quiet peace and romance.

Scottish Field, 1914
