Relax. Unwind. Recharge

Staying in these charming, eco-friendly bothies will offer you a tranquil and memorable stay. Each hand-built Bothy sleeps up to 3 or 4, and each one has a different interior layout.
Designed to be used year-round, our highly-insulated Bothies each have a sleeping area, living area, kitchen area and bathroom with good-sized showers, hand basins and composting loos.

The Bothies are perfect for guests travelling by train or bus, and we have a parking space too for each one.

An electric panel heater and a wood-burning stove keep you toasty.

Each Bothy has a corten steel fire pit/BBQ at its own ‘sitooterie’. There is a shared, Swedish-style woodfired bath. We provide all the wood on-site for you and the Hotties heat logs for the bath.

Clanranald Bothy sleeps 3, whilst Keppoch and Glenaladale sleep 4. They are spaced out on our sloping site (no steps), which is on the edge of woodland in the heart of Glenfinnan.

We are just a few minutes’ walk from all of Glenfinnan’s attractions but also with its wild, wide-open spaces right on our doorstep.

The Bothies are perfect for guests travelling by train or bus, and we have a parking space too for each one.

They recently joined the Green Tourism scheme and are awaiting our grading – watch this space!
