The house is shown on the 1st Edition Ordnance Survey map and is similar in style to Seymour lodge (LB43465) designed by Alexander Thomson. Claremont, Lovedale, Aidenkyle and Belmore were all built in the mid 19th century from lands feued from the Duke of Argyll. The houses were named after royal residences. The former coach house to the right of the house has been altered to a dwelling. It is not to be confused with Claremont to the south near the Clevedon Hotel.
