A curved, eco new-build, crafted in standing seam corten and oak, anchored against the original byre wall. Sliding doors facing into nature, Loch Nell and the hills beyond. Like the bothies – clay walls, oak floors, stunning views – but with hot running water and easy access to the restaurant…

The real OG. The oldest building on Inverlonan dating to 15th/16th century. Painstakingly restored, stone by stone, lime by lime, by some of Scotland’s finest stone masons. No cut corners. Their original brief: It must look exactly like it does now just with solid walls. Achieved. Respect.
Given the fit out and love it deserves. The ‘Honeymoon suite’?! Fully self-contained. Open plan. Freestanding bath. Kitchen. Wood-burning stove. Oak beams. Internal stone walls – note the texture and flecks of colour from the shells hand mixed through the lime mortar
Glencraft’s luxury Marcliffe mattress, Piglet-in-Bed’s linen and our own blankets and rugs. Local wood craftsmanship throughout. Dollop of quirk. Knock coffee hand-grinder. Beans. Teas. Treats. Wi-fi. Underfloor heating.
Re-imagining the Bothy Experience: Unique, off-grid, slow-living in ecological luxury. 3 stunning bothies, nestled in an ancient oak woodland on the shores of Loch Nell.
“This is by far the best cabin we’ve ever stayed in! The experience is totally remote with beautiful views of Loch Nell. We had a perfect private 8-course dinner. Upon arrival our groceries were waiting for us. We spent our days paddle boarding on the Loch, heating up the sauna and sunbathing while cooking our food on an open fire. It was amazing, thank you!
We will be back asap!” Isabel
