A blend of rustic charm and modern luxury
Step inside
The Stable Bothy is a luxurious one-bedroom space for two people, with carefully curated interiors combining character and comfort.
At the heart of the bothy is an open-plan living, dining and kitchen space with log burner, large picture windows and a sumptuous sofa, perfectly positioned to take in the breathtaking views.
The bedroom has a super comfy king-size bed with luxury linens, and there’s a separate shower room with large, walk-in rainfall shower.
There’s a spacious, entrance porch, an ideal spot for drying off muddy boots. The natural garden blends with the surrounding landscape, and the patio provides a perfect place to sip your morning coffee or stargaze when the day’s adventures are past – and perhaps even catch the Northern Lights!
