It was previously used as a convent, but has been vacant for several years.

The current owner, Hugh Murray, wants to change the use of the former convent, chapel and outbuildings.

It would accommodate a restaurant, cafe and 12 aparthotel units.

He's also looking for planning permission for a new lift, kitchen extension, a glass porch and outdoor seating for the cafe.

The council is likely to make a decision on the application next month.
