Lainshaw House or, as it was formerly called, Langschaw, has its origins in a former Scottish Keep dating back to the 13th Century. It has been extended several times and occupies a prominent position overlooking Annick Water southwest of Stewarton. Lainshaw and associated lands were originally the gift of King James II of Scotland and passed through many notable owners. William Cunninghame (a Glasgow tobacco baron) acquired the property through inheritance in 1799. He re-modelled the property extensively and took up residence in 1804. On his death in 1849 it remained within the family, until being sold to Ayr County Council in 1954 for a retirement home. The house was vacated in 1993 and lay empty until redeveloped into 8 apartments in 2007/8. It remains surrounded by ancient woodland and paths used by many locals.

Lainshaw House has remained continually popular to a great variety of buyers types. Internal viewing is essential to appreciate fully the beauty of this conversion and also Lainshaw Estate and the surrounding area.
