Look inside the whimsical property that's won Scotland's Christmas Home of the Year

The results of the compeition were announced today

Tonight’s BBC Scotland programme, Scotland’s Christmas Home of the Year, gave us a tour of five of the country’s most festive properties, and the judges had a firm favourite.

The winner is a house in Cumnock, which the programme makers dubbed the Holly Jolly Mouse House. This sparkly venue is owned by Ellenor and Gary, who theme their decorations every year, with a Mouseland slant for 2025.

Its charming and imaginative decor won over the judges - Anna Campbell-Jones, Danny Campbell and Banjo Beale - who gave it an incredible 30 points and variously praised its passion, nostalgia and magic.

We took a look inside.

Scotland’s Christmas Home of the Year is available now on BBC iPlayer

Scotland’s Home of the Year will return to BBC Scotland and BBC iPlayer for an eighth series in 2026
