Since there is Internet it`s easy to find the location (Khao Phing Kan) but you can´t find anything about his house. Therefore I believe it must be a set and not a real house.

I loved what they did with the place where they have their dinner.

the god like genius of Mr Ken Adam

It is too bad Lee’s solid portrayal of Scaramanga is so wasted in this inferior effort, even John Barry’s score is his first less-than-superb job for a Bond film (with other even weaker scores to follow unfortunately). Roger Moore really brought the series down, he was too stuffy, too wooden, too pretty. Funny because he was great as The Saint on TV. Anyhow, thank you for the frame grabs of the GOLDEN GUN location! Does anybody know who built and/or owns this place? I assume it is a real structure built into the rock.

Someone should write a thesis on this topic.
