Products from Alutec’s Aligator range of aluminium rainwater systems have been specified for the Ardgartan Hotel, located near Arrochar, Scotland, thanks to their high-quality design and excellent durability.

Set in 50 acres of beautiful parkland, once the grounds of a long demolished mansion, the Ardgartan Hotel occupies an elevated position with panoramic views down Loch Long, whose shore is just 30 yards away.

John White from John H White Architects said: “The hotel is positioned in a beautiful but quite exposed location and so specifying products that could withstand extreme weather conditions was one of the major requirements for this project. There was also an emphasis on durability and low maintenance for all external products.
